Rebecca Blasband was in that first season, and has since gone on to be a singer songwriter, and screenwriter. Back in 2018 we premiered her single, &#8216;Fool&#8217;s Heaven&#8217;, from her album &#8216;HERE&#8217;. Now she returns with the title track from the album.<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The songs on &#8216;HERE&#8217; are a collaboration with the spirit of John Lennon, who Blasband says she first met with a group of friends, while studying at New York University. In 1991 she and Lennon&#8217;s spirit reconnected, and collaborated on 11 songs until the year 2000.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&#8216;Here&#8217;, which comes with a music video of Blasband in a variety of locations, including the beach, a forest, and a wide open field, is an upbeat guitars and keys track, with Rebecca&#8217;s vocals feeling somewhere between folk and country. It&#8217;s a pleasing tune that benefits from multiple listens. Although Blasband stresses the album isn&#8217;t a Lennon album, there&#8217;s definitely been some of his influence over the title track.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Watch the music video for &#8216;Here&#8217; below.
