Sheryl Crow has written and recorded a new song for the movie 'Home of the Brave' from Rocky filmmaker Irwin Winkler.
Crow and Winkler previously collaborated for his movie 'De-Lovely', the story of Col Porter.The new song 'Try Not To Remember' will feature over the end credits of the movie.
The movie, starring 50 Cent and Samuel L. Jackson, is the first film to tell the story of U.S. Troops coming home from Iraq.
Winkler gave Crow a private screening of the completed film before she wrote the song. The song was inspired by the deep impact of the film's evocation of hope and courage in the face of the despairs of war. "I was moved by the whole movie, and I really carried it with me after seeing it," Crow says in a statement. "It was such an inspiring experience and I just felt compelled to write about it. It feels immediate to me to be able to write about what's going on around us right now."
The movie follows the lives of four soldiers attempting to readjust to civilian life after a traumatic and life-altering wartime experience in Iraq.
