On Tuesday, the 18th, Nancy Wilson released the official music video for the song "Daughter," a cover of the Pearl Jam that the singer recorded as part of the South African Netflix , I Am All Girls .

The video shows Nancy singing and is interspersed with images from the film, which follows a heavy theme about human trafficking, especially of young girls, for forced sex work. 

Regarding the song, Nancy said (via Blabbermouth ): “I initially recorded 'Daughter' for the film, a powerful story about sex trafficking in South Africa. I was drawn to the global tragedy of human trafficking, and the lyrics, sung from a woman's perspective, also mirror the power of these girls' untold stories. The film is a revelation and exposes these realities. Trafficking is a global phenomenon that impacts the lives of women around the world. I recorded this version as an anthem for them.”

Nancy's cover of "Daughter" ended up being included on her first solo album, You and Me , released in early May. The debut album features mostly original songs, but also includes some covers of Bruce Springsteen , The Cranberries , and Simon & Garfunkel .
