Titled 'This Is Our Time', the song highlights pride in the UAE’s culture, celebrates the future and brings together countries from around the world, while conveying the story of Expo’s overarching theme of ‘Connecting Minds, Creating the Future’ through the universal language of music.
The song features Hussain Al Jassmi, one of the UAE’s biggest artists and Expo 2020 Ambassador, accompanied by Lebanese-American Grammy-nominated singer-songwriter Mayssa Karaa, who is also Artistic Director of Expo’s all-female Firdaus Orchestra, as well as 21-year-old Emirati singer-songwriter Almas, named in Spotify’s Best Female Talent in the Middle East.
Hussain Al Jassmi said: “'This Is Our Time' is a tribute to the UAE for all it has been, is today and will achieve in the years to come. It’s a song about pride, faith and unity, and I hope that it brings a smile to the faces of everyone who hears it, wherever they may be in the world. Being a part of such an iconic event in the UAE’s history is extremely exciting and rewarding.”"هذا وقتنا".. الأغنية الرسمية لإكسبو 2020 #دبي تحتفي بدولة #الإمارات وتأثير التعاونhttps://t.co/j4czAcP6au@expo2020dubai pic.twitter.com/oJMHbWs82k
