American singer-songwriter Kesha appeared on The Ellen DeGeneres Show on December 12, where she performed her latest song “Here Comes the Change”.
She released the song back in September from the film "On the Basis of Sex" soundtrack. It was written by Drew Pearson, Kesha and Wrabel.
"On the Basis of Sex" was directed by Mimi Leder, starring Felicity Jones and Armie Hammer. The film is based on the life of Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg. It is scheduled to be released on December 25, 2018,
Kesha said of the song, "When I was first approached to write a song for the movie, I thought I was the wrong person for the job. For me, songwriting is such a personal process and it is almost always inspired by things I’ve experienced in my own life. But after seeing [On the Basis of Sex], I was inspired. It was amazing to see Ginsburg’s story of leading a campaign that successfully changed laws that discriminated against Americans purely on the basis of their sex, as the film title suggests. In watching the film I was struck by how much Ginsburg was able to accomplish in her life, and at the same time, how much more there is to do in the fight for equality for all people. It reminded me of — and strengthened — my belief that any single person can make lasting change, starting with one small action. I wanted to do what I could to pay tribute to Ginsburg, who has spent a lifetime fighting tirelessly for equality, with no signs of slowing down. I wanted to make my voice heard, too."- source : Billboard
