Colors of the Wind

To celebrate day 2 of Holoprosencephaly Awareness Week, we are repeating a blog entry from October 2019 when Sarah Brown recorded Colors of the Wind in honor of our HPE community.  Enjoy!

 

 

 

 

 

 

************************************************

Hi!  I’m Sarah from Leicester, England.  I was diagnosed as an adult, in 2016, with Lobar HPE an Rhombencephalosynapsis.  I love to sing and was honoured to be contacted by Leslie from Families for HoPE and asked if I would like to record a song for all of our HoPE children and their loved ones.

I chose Colors of the Wind from Disney’s Pocahontas, mainly because who doesn’t love a Disney song?!  I have always loved the lyrics and the message of this song, and Pocahontas is a feisty, headstrong girl who is not afraid to break with convention and defy expectations of those who don’t “look and think like” her.  She also talks about all of Earth’s creatures being “connected to each other”, which for me describes the worldwide Families for HoPE community that I have come to be so proud to be a part of. I was really excited to record this beautiful song and am extremely proud and honoured to share it with you.  I hope you enjoy it!

Lots of love,
Sarah Brown
