What was that poignant song sung in the background of Today's Illustrated photos of soldiers and families...This Is Love? Who sings it? I was touched, it was a lovely presentation.
The script sings it
Hi Nettie and Raquel,
We're so glad that you enjoyed the song for TODAY's Life Illustrated this past weekend. Yes, it was "This = Love" by The Script.
We hope you'll keep watching!
Thank you,
