Joshua Bassett released the official lyric video for debut single “Common Sense” on Warner Records.
“’Common Sense’ was one of those lightning-strike songs: the idea came to me seemingly prepackaged, while I was driving to an acting audition. I could barely keep up with it, spilling out the lyrics into my voice memo’s app. When I eventually parked the car that I was practically living out of at the mall across the street, I quickly whipped out my guitar and finished the song in 15 minutes. It felt truly magical. The song is pretty simple; you know someone’s bad news, yet you can’t help but love them anyway. I think everyone, of any age, can relate to that on some level. Love is love, no matter what ‘common sense’ tells you.”
Joshua will be performing for Global Citizen and World Health Organization on his Instagram today at 2pm PT as part of their #TogetherAtHome campaign which works to engage and mobilize people to take urgent action in support of the global effort to tackle COVID-19.
