Compelling

John Legend and Common have teamed up again for a music video to go along with their civil rights inspired track "Glory".

The pair took home a statue Sunday evening after winning best Original Song for their contribution to the film Selma, about Martin Luther King, released Christmas Day.

The video itself is fairly simplistic but it packs a powerful punch. Set over scenes from the motion picture, Common and John Legend's lyrics set against such an emotive backdrop makes for a compelling watch.
