- It's clear that more and more Americans are "Ready to Believe" and we dedicate this song to them. We believe it captures the spirit of hope and change that the Obama campaign represents at the same time it takes aim at those lame attacks from the other side.
Here's a little background on how this song came to be. Incredibly, on the day that the current "You Tube" sensation "Yes We Can" was released, we were in a mixing studio putting in the final changes on our song, which we were also calling "Yes We Can." We decided to change the title to avoid confusion, and now it's known as "Ready to Believe," a title which, the longer we sit with it, the more appropriate it feels.
"Ready to Believe" is composed and sung by Cherish Alexander, lyrics by Jackie Zabel and Bryce Zabel, and produced by Damian Valentine and Cherish Alexander. At the time they wrote the lyrics, just days before the California primary, Bryce & Jackie were striking screenwriters. Cherish is a popular and established alt.rocker in the LA scene with a powerful voice and a passion to make the world a better place. Bryce and Cherish had worked together previously when, as executive producer of the TV series, "The Crow: Stairway to Heaven," he collaborated with Cherish to create some original music for multiple episodes.
You can download a crystal-clear pure MP3 of "Ready to Believe" at (www.cherishalex...) and you can also download a clean PDF of the lyrics.
Please enjoy "Ready to Believe" and help the world hear it at this important and critical time. If you have friends in Wisconsin, Hawaii, Texas, Ohio, Pennsylvania and all the other states about to vote, please send it to them now.
READY TO BELIEVE
I'm ready to believe
No more people who deceive
It's his time to take the stage
It's our time to turn the page
I don't want to be feeling sad
I don't want to be feeling bad
Give us one good man
Who says yes
Yes we can
They say he must wait his turn
They say too much to learn
They say he should stand in line
It's their plan, not mine
CHORUS (I'm ready to believe...)
They say it's a fairy tale
They say rolling dice can only fail
They say it will fall apart
He alone speaks from my heart
CHORUS
CHORUS
Can we see the future and not the past?
Yes we can
Can we come together and make a change?
Yes we can
Can we really believe again?
Yes we can
We say, now is the time
We say, this is the plan
We say, it takes one good man
Yes we can

Great video!!! WOW! And all you RP people (who seem to have gone away recently, but just in case) I've done my research on ALL the candidates. Why not go ask him what he's doing with all that money, have him buy some ads so you can relax a bit.
Nice Job.
sehr schön
GREAT
Wow phenomenal! Thanks.
Obama '08
Great song, great voice for a great president
OBAMA 08
Yes we can, Yes we can
We were in a studio mixing it the day that "Yes We Can" came out, so we changed the title and kept on mixing. We think they both work great but this is obviously more of an anthem which we think there's a need for.
beautiful video :o)
Everytime I listen to this song I think about how difficult it was for our founding farthers put together our beginning laws and traditions. All Men are created Equal! They weren't Jesus Christ. We are AMERICANS Let's remember that. We must stand together to build our Nation! Our Hope, Our Deams from PA to NM. If we can cheer together at ball
games then we can save each other in a time of crisis. Let's never forget...
YES WE CAN!!!! pick HILLIARY/VP
YES WE WILL!!!
my all time favorite obama song
This is Great! As long as people are playing him small,.. I am ready to believe,.. I am ready to go that that one Good man!.. I am ready to help make this man win over doubters,.. and keep power-hungry opponent far from the WH! Unfortunately, I can't vote because I am not citizen,.. but I urge you the American people to vote for the world to see the America we need! We are the change we are waiting for! YES WE CAN,.. OBAMA 08!
beautiful :o)
Love it... You have got to admit that Obama is the one one who has the ability to bring this nation as one! Finally we are going to be a United States of America, not a blue and red nation. I hope the rest of the world leaders will join this movment! and wish to have a peach in the world.
Vamos Obama vamos!!!! Sí podemos!!! Ahora es cuando!!!
Light at the end of the tunnel, people get ready, join hands, and join the train, it's a train of freedom, long overdue, tell all your friends...oops, wrong songs playing in my head.
This makes me proud to be a supporter of Barack Obama. And it makes me understand how important it is that he wins this election.
If anyone has friends and family in Ohio or Texas, call them! Encourage them to vote for Hope, change, results on March 4th!
Obama For President! Hope for America!
Beautiful song! Thank you for the inspiration, Cherish. I feel like Princess Leah when I say he is our only hope! The time for change is now, America. Check out my slide show/video: "The Season of Change"
Pass along the hope!
Obama is making me wanting to study more. Thats how we know a good leader. All the way from Nigeria. YES WE CAN.
That's fine. I'm ready to be dissapointed, if that's what it takes to make real change.
"Obama, some one new to dissapoint in 08" might still make a good bumper sticker.
Quinnipac poll:
Florida 51-43 Obama
Ohio 50-42 Obama
Pennsylvania 54-39 Obama
YES WE CAN....ARE ARE!!!
PEACE.
AWESMOME
VOTE
OBAMA 08'
I agree. I would only add...take a car load of registered voters with you. Give rides to those who dont have cars. This is about us. If we want it, it is ours.
Peace!
go obama
Sad that this politician will destroy your faith just like all those before him. Good luck. I hope your generation turns out better but I am definitely skeptical.
