Aware/Columbia Records artist John Ondrasik, of Five For Fighting, has recently recorded a compelling new version of the classic Jimmy Webb composition, "All I Know" (a chart-topping pop hit song for Art Garfunkel in 1973), for the widely-anticipated Walt Disney Pictures Film, "Chicken Little," opening nationwide today, Friday, November 4.
Ondrasik's rendition of "All I Know" provides the coloration for one of the film's key scenes, an emotional exchange between Chicken Little (voiced by Zach Braff), and his father, Buck Cluck (voiced by Garry Marshall).
Ondrasik's warm vocal delivery and insightful lyricism are familiar to those who've heard his signature songs "Superman (It's Not Easy)" and "100 Years," which has recently been tapped by Chase Manhattan for use as an audio sound-bed for the firm's ongoing television advertising campaign. A poignant meditation on the inevitable passage of time and the changes in consciousness the aging process brings, "100 Years" recently took home the coveted BMI songwriting award.
In addition to working steadily on the avidly-awaited new Five For Fighting album, Ondrasik has been co-writing with some of Nashville's top songwriters to create new material for other artists.
On Tuesday, November 1, two of Ondrasik's most popular recordings earned RIAA certifications: a Gold Digital Single certification for "Superman (It's Not Easy)" and a 2x Platinum Digital Single certification for "100 Years."
