Canadian-American singer Alanis Morissette wrote and recorded the theme song for Marianne Williamson, the independent candidate running for a seat in California’s 33^rd district.

The song is entitled “Today,” and Morissette hopes that is will make Williamson’s campaign successful. “I was attempting to capture the passion, mission, activism, deep humanity, and tenderness of Marianne,” the 39-year-old singer said.

Williamson even came by the studio while Morissette was recording the song. “We all huddled together as the song was recorded. I love this song. I love this woman, and I love a world that would vote for her,” she said.

The singer decided to pen the song when one of the attendees at Williamson’s seminar encouraged her to to so.

The candidate praised Morissette’s song on her website, describing it as something that powerfully describes this moment in history. “With her inimitable musical alchemy, Alanis has provided an anthem for our audacious quest to get America back on track,” Williamson wrote.

The chorus of the song clearly states the state of the world today. “We’re going down, down, down. We’re going down unless we move to new ground, unless we start a revolution, awaken from this frozen, start the mending of our union today.”
