    Our newest Song of the Month features a couple of ST faves: one who has been a regular on our pages and one we haven’t written about in a decade.

    “When The World Says No” is the powerful new song from award-winning songwriter supreme James Day, who won the SoulTracks Readers’ Choice Award a couple years ago for his Glenn Jones and Regina Belle duet, “Love By Design.” And his new single features one of the great voices we covered in the early days of SoulTracks, but whom we haven’t heard from in awhile, Lorenzo Owens.

    “When The World Says No” is the powerful new song from award-winning songwriter supreme James Day, who won the SoulTracks Readers’ Choice Award a couple years ago for his Glenn Jones and Regina Belle duet, “Love By Design.” And his new single features one of the great voices we covered in the early days of SoulTracks, but whom we haven’t heard from in awhile, Lorenzo Owens.

    The Midwest born and raised Owens made quite a splash on Oprah Winfrey’s Pop Star Challenge, immediately becoming a household name and landing a hit album with After The Show. One listen to his voice – which we once described as “a chilling blend of Ali Woodson and Rahsaan Patterson” - and you’ll know why Oprah’s audience went nuts.

    “When The World Says No” is a great vehicle for all involved. With full-bodied production and an instant classic feel, it tells the story of defying the limited expectations that those around you set, and reaching for a higher level. It is both inspirational and musically irresistible.

    Check out “When The World Says No,” and welcome these two stars back to  SoulTracks.
