Resound Trio Inspires With AGT Performance Of 'What The World Needs Now'

The trio of Resound earns two thumbs up from Simon with their inspiring performance of ‘What The World Needs Now Is Love.’

You may have seen this talented group from their numerous viral videos including Disney medleys and gospel favorites. Now, these Richmond, Virginia natives are pulling out all the stops as they audition for America’s Got Talent with their arrangement of this classic tune.

This 1965 song was composed by legendary musician Burt Bacharach and made popular by Jackie DeShannon. After its release, the song quickly shot to the top of the music charts. Now, it’s a classic tune that has truly stood the test of time.

As our world walks through unprecedented times, the lyrics of ‘What The World Needs Now Is Love’ right ever so true. And the three incredible voices of Resound are the perfect group to belt out these words for the world to hear.

“What the world needs now is love, sweet love
It's the only thing that there's just too little of
What the world needs now is love, sweet love,
No not just for some but for everyone.”

After the incredible performance, notoriously difficult judge Simon Cowell was on his feet clapping. He even gave the trio two well-earned thumbs up. “Your joy of performing was very infectious.”

New judge Sophia Vergara also had words of praise. “I want to get married again so you can sing and walk me down the aisle.”

This uplifting performance left everyone in a good mood and I have a feeling we’ll be seeing this trio for years to come.
