AceShowbiz - Alanis Morissette is back with a new song. Titled "The Morning", the track which arrived on YouTube over the weekend along with its accompanying music video was recorded for the upcoming documentary "A Small Section of the World".
The song was co-written and composed by Costa Rican artist and Grammy Award winner Carlos "Tapado" Vargas. It's now available for purchase on iTunes. "By downloading 'The Morning', you are helping to enrich the lives of women looking to educate and empower themselves in the world of coffee," read a message posted on the documentary's official website.
"Proceeds from every song purchase are matched by the Ernesto Illy Foundation and then go directly towards providing scholarships for women around the world to earn a Master in Coffee and Economic Sciences degree and expanding the programs available to women," it continued.
"A Small Section of the World" will open in U.S. theaters on December 5. It tells the story of a group of women from a remote farming region of Costa Rica whose ideas sparked a revolution in the coffee growing world.
