Kacey Musgraves is celebrating Earth Day today with a new version of a fan-favorite track from her 2018 album Golden Hour. “Oh, What A World 2.0 (Earth Day Edition),” a reimagined version of “Oh, What A World,” is out now with a new visualizer, which you can watch below.
“There is a lot to feel downhearted about on this Earth Day,” Musgraves said of the song in a press release. “Everyone and everything feels out of balance. People are suffering and the future is uncertain.” She adds:
In the face of a pandemic that has brought cities to their knees, a song can feel small. A melody can seem insignificant. This is a global moment of acknowledgment and respect for the power of nature and for so many of us – extreme challenges and sadness. But in the midst of all the loss and uncertainty there are signs everywhere of human compassion and renewal. The earth is healing. Bluer skies hang over China and Los Angeles. Clearer water and a positive effect on wildlife is being seen. In spite of all its troubles, it’s still a wild, beautiful world and if you need proof, it’s out there. You just might have to look in a different corner of the sky.
