‘Malala’s Tempest Of Darkness & Light‘ is Michel Montecrossa’s New-Topical-Song dedicated to the Pakistani girl Malala Yousafzai who was nearly shot to death by the Taliban and her battle for her freedom to receive education, to have her future and to live in a good world.

Michel Montecrossa says about ‘Malala’s Tempest Of Darkness & Light’:
“The future is young, it is not old. Malala Yousafzai is a young girl from Pakistan fighting for her freedom to receive education, to have her future and to live in a good world. For that she was nearly shot to death by Taliban. But it is the young who are the future of us all, not the merciless old. The young are the new, the progress, the unexpected, the free. They must be protected, helped, brought to fulfillment if human civilization, humanity itself wants to survive.
Malala has become a poignant symbol for this battle of the living future against the remnants of a dying past who doesn’t want to go.
When the older generations become the killers of our own youth they must know that no power of the world can stand against the power of a young soul’s victory light of intelligence and freedom.
To this victorious light I dedicate my New-Topical-Song ‘Malala’s Tempest Of Darkness & Light’ as a prayer for her quick recovery and a happy tomorrow.”
