Ondrasik said the inspiration for the song came from the parallels between the massacre of October 7, during which Hamas killed 1,200 people and took 250 hostages, and 9-11 in the US
John Ondrasik of Five for Fighting unveiled a new version of his hit song “Superman” dedicated to the hostages in Gaza. The song features Idit Ohel, the mother of captive Alon Ohel.
Speaking to Fox and Friends, Ondrasik said the inspiration for the song came from the parallels between the massacre of October 7, during which Hamas killed 1,200 people and took 250 hostages, and 9-11 in the US.
“It became very clear that ‘Superman’ should be the song,” he said. “With the history of 9/11 and the fact that, for Israel, October 7 is their 9/11.”
