14 DAY TRIAL // There is plenty of color and plenty of samba in the new video for the World Cup anthem “We Are One (Ole-Ola)” sung by a collaboration of artists which include Pitbull, Jennifer Lopez and Claudia Leitte. This marks the latest effort in anticipation of the FIFA World Cup, that is taking place this summer in Brazil.
The video is interspersed with footage from famous football matches from the past, a tradition continued by FIFA in all of their anthems. The rest is made to look like Brazil, the place where the games are going to be played. In fact, the video was shot over the duration of a few days in Fort Lauderdale, a few months ago, under the direction of Ben Mor.
As you can imagine, the video depicts Brazil's most famous exports, like samba dancers the Rio de Janeiro skyline. After a musical introduction from Pitbull, Jennifer Lopez takes the stage with her scantily clad dancers, only to make the way for local singer Claudia Leitte, who sings the chorus.
The song appears on the album “One Love, One Rhythm,” which is made especially for this year's World Cup. The album features a massive collaboration between Santana, Wyclef Jean and Avicii, which is the other anthem to be released this year.
Football fans from around the world are expect to tune in and watch the most famous sporting event in the world that is set to kicked off with the World Cup Opening Ceremony that is taking place at the Arena de Sao Paulo on June 12.
