U.S. presidential hopeful Barack Obama has inspired a new compilation of uplifting songs by artists such as Sheryl Crow, Jackson Browne and Stevie Wonder.

The album, Yes We Can: Voices of a Grassroots Movement, is available exclusively via the Obama campaign's official website BarackObama.com between now and 4 November (08), when a new U.S. President will be elected.

All sales proceeds from the Cd or download will benefit the Obama campaign.

The album will go on general release after the election. (c) WENN
