Grammy Award-winning singer, songwriter and Morgan Heritage founding member Gramps Morgan has a wish for a more united world that’s set in the Tennessee countryside in his new music video for “I Wish That.”

Originally written by Diane Warren, the track is one of five previously unheard compositions introduced on Songs in the Key of Diane: A Reggae Compilation of Diane Warren Songs, the 13-track collection available now via Regime Music Group’s Island Empire label.

The video’s deliberately simple approach reflects Morgan’s intention to “put a vision of peace into the world”.

He says:

I also wanted to have the reflection of me manifesting peace into the universe by showing the beauty of Nashville, Tennessee, especially in the summer. Me on the farm just hoping this world could be one world.

On “I Wish That,” Morgan brings that cross-genre perspective to a new entry in Warren’s catalog. Songs in the Key of Diane places previously unreleased material alongside Reggae and Island interpretations of familiar hits, with contributions from Common Kings, Fiji, Sammy Johnson, Anuhea, Pia Mia, Eli-Mac and more.

Diane Warren comments:

I write songs without having any idea about who can perform them, and then along comes an artist who fits it perfectly. That happened throughout this project.
