Glory Took the Globe!
They did it! Common and John Legend took home the Golden Globe for Best Original Song in a Motion Picture for the song Glory from the movie Selma.
Common said for him this felt bigger than a movie. His experience with Selma pulled him in and gave him a new realization of the people of the Civil Rights Movement. During his acceptance speech at the Golden Globes, he said, “Selma has awakened my humanity.”
I sat down with Common to discuss the film he starred in and wrote music for.
Common got in touch with John Legend for their collaboration on Glory.
They both spoke about their work during the press interviews after the Golden Globe Ceremony.
Congratulations Common and John Legend for the big win at the Globes for Glory!
