As his contribution to World Peace Day, Ringo Starr releasesย ‘Now the time has come’.ย 

In partnership with the United Nations, former Beatle, Ringo Starr, released a video and a new song, called “Now the Time Has Come,” on Wednesday in celebration of the U.N.’s International Day of Peace.

Check out the video here.

โ€œMaking this record was incredibly personal for me,โ€ Starr said.ย โ€œAgainst the backdrop of war or social unrest, I always turned to music as a refuge. I hope this record can offer people solace and inspire them to do all they can to bring peace to their communities.โ€

Starr and producer, Bruce Sugar, co-wrote the song, which features vocals from Richard Page,ย Colin Hayย and Billy Valentine, alongside social-media stars Christian Collins, Maddi Jane, Casey McPherson, James Maslow and Wesley Stromberg.

The song is part of the social-media #HugForPeace campaign to promote a day of non-violence through the peaceful act of hugging.

โ€œI worked on this record with peace and love,โ€ Starr said.ย “It was a joy to be part of this project.”
