Walk the Change (for Mandela) with RnAm This song was written on the passing of our beloved Nelson Mandela in December 2013. I was absolutely delighted when Rob and Anne-Marie chose it for my collaborative album. What I was not prepared for was what they did with the song and the video. I was completely astounded and still get a lump in my throat every time I even think about it. They have taken the song and produced it with the signature RnAm presentation along with the most heartfelt vocals and video to go with it. When they were finished with the song and video there was absolutely nothing that could be added. We do hope you enjoy and comments are very much welcome.
