One Voice, a children’s choir made up of thousands of students from schools across the United States, has recorded an incredible cover of Pink’s hit song “What About Us.” This powerful rendition has resonated with millions of people online, capturing the hearts of listeners worldwide. The choir, founded in the lead-up to the 2002 Salt Lake City Winter Olympics, aims to inspire through the sheer power of children’s voices.
Choosing to sing “What About Us,” originally released by Pink on her 2017 album Beautiful Trauma, was a deliberate decision. The song’s open-ended lyrics can be interpreted as a commentary on the state of the world or the state of the heart, and the One Voice Children’s Choir version particularly highlights the circumstances faced by children from broken homes, as noted by Faith Pot.
The choir’s passionate cover has undoubtedly struck a chord with listeners. The beautiful harmonies, stunning videography, and exceptional musical talent showcased in their performance have made this rendition one of the most popular covers of the song online.
