Ray Charles’ ‘Georgia On My Mind’ was sung by John Legend after the state turned from Republican to Democrat in the 2020 US presidential election, helping to seal Joe Biden‘s victory over Donald Trump.

On Twitter, Legend shared the two-minute cover of the track, performed at his kitchen table. At the end of the performance, he said: I love you, Georgia”.

After the cover was posted, Legend’s wife Chrissy Teigen joked on Twitter that her husband “has been waiting to post this for five hours” as the election results from the state rolled in.
