The FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022 has released its official video for “Light The Sky” an official soundtrack featuring Nora Fatehi, Balqees, Rahma Riad, Manal, RedOne, and choreographer Sadeck Waff.
The song is available on all music streaming platforms globally.
“This is an astonishing music video made with love by the name of women empowerment with beauties Rahma Riadh, Nora Fatehi, Manal Benchlikha and produced by Red One,” Balqees wrote in her Instagram post with a snippet of herself from the official music video.
FIFA World Cup 2022 in Qatar begins on Nov 20 and concludes on Dec 18.
The soundtrack features not only English but bits of Hindi by Fatehi, and a little bit of Moroccan Arabic. The official video paid homage to the women on the field as it featured a short clip of female referees of the 2022 World Cup.
Shakira sang the 2010 World Cup song ‘Waka Waka’ that gained worldwide fame. JLo and Pitbull teamed up for ‘We Are One (Ole Ola)’ in 2014, but that didn’t gain the same level of popularity as ‘Waka Waka’, nor did Nicky Jam, Will Smith and Era Istrefi’s 2018 song ‘Live it Up’.
The World Cup will be taking place in Qatar this year and its opening ceremony will be held at the Al Bayt Stadium on November 20.
