#StandByMe | Who else loves loved loved loved the soulful gospel rendition of ‘Stand By Me’ performed by #KarenGibson and the #KingdomChoir? #PrinceWilliam #PrinceCharles #princeharry ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ There isn’t anything more powerful and captivating than harmonies of a #gospel #choir...and this carries greater #cultural significance when we consider the song’s history - the fourth most widely recorded song in the 20th Century.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ‘Stand By Me’ is about enduring love and used as a popular wedding tune, but its lyrics also echo a deep political message. When ‘Stand By Me’ first rose to popularity during the #CivilRightsMovement, it was used as a rally cry amongst people of #colour.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #Meghan may not be the first #biracial Royal. However, considering the history behind #StandByMe’ and the #predominantly #black #royalchoir performing for The #RoyalWedding - this seems to be a symbolic tipping-point moment of change toward a more inclusive #RoyalFamily. #trealmagazine #ThePowerOfMusic via @sparklelikemarkle #treal #tmgtw #AtlantaDreamFactory
