Miya Folick Covers Annie Lennox's “Walking on Broken Glass” for ...
Nettwerk Music Group has announced a new compilation that will benefit the Abortion Care Network’s Keep Our Clinics campaign. The album, Broken Glass, features Nettwerk artists covering prominent 1990s songs by female artists. Below, listen to Miya Folick’s cover of Annie Lennox’s “Walking on Broken Glass” and Flower Face’s version of Alanis Morissette’s “You Oughta Know.”
Half of Broken Glass proceeds from streams and downloads will go to Keep Our Clinics, which works to protect and support independent abortion clinics across the United States. Additional contributors to the compilation include Allie Crow Buckley, Jaguar Jonze, Syml, and Bre Kennedy.
In a statement about her “Walking on Broken Glass” cover, Miya Folick said:
It’s been one year since the Dobbs decision and most or all abortions are now banned in 14 states. These laws are violent, cruel, and reflect the deep imbalance of power in the U.S. that affects us every day. It makes me rage when I think about how most people in this country supported Roe v. Wade a year ago and continue to support it today. We want access to abortions, but politics and an unconscionable lack of empathy stole that from us. Keep Our Clinics is working to preserve clinics in places where abortions are severely restricted and to expand access in states where abortions are legal. I’m proud to be a part of this compilation to support their work.
“Walking on Broken Glass” felt like a fitting contribution to this project. Taking away people’s rights to abortion access is a shattering, a destruction. And, also, I recently discovered that Annie Lennox is the founder of a global feminist organization called the Circle. An absolute badass.
