Watershed releases ‘Countdown’ song, a tribute to frontline workers
The song is a humble thank you to all the people who have worked during this unprecedented and uncertain time in history.
Craig Hinds, lead singer of Watershed joined Breakfast with Martin Bester on Friday morning to discuss the release of a powerful song for all frontline workers during the national lockdown in South Africa.
Our lives have changed and the way we look at the world and our communities has changed. This global pandemic has brought the world to its knees and there’s still no end in sight.
When we were staying at home and staying safe there were people working, saving lives, delivering essential services hour on hour, month after month, counting down the days to that ever retreating end line!

Medical staff who have nursed people back to full health and have witnessed lonely deaths, shopkeepers, and truck drivers venturing out, and working while we worried, always with a smile and a kind word.
We don't need to be afraid, they have our safety in their hands. These are the people we need to thank. These are our frontline workers! Thank you! This song is for you!”
