Listen to another new SuperHeavy song, "Satyameva Jayathe"

by Tyler Munro

SuperHeavy won one for the underdogs with their first single, “Miracle Worker,” which succeeded in spite of the fact that the band’s line-up consists of two bluesy Brits (one of which is pushing 70), a dreadlocked rasta and the guy who wrote “Jai Ho”. Oh, and some dude from Eurythmics. Anyways, “Miracle Worker” was way better than anyone expected, but it definitely felt like A. R. Rahman was on the outside looking in.

Their second song, “Satyameva Jayathe,” changes that. The song is named after the official Indian motto (which Wikipedia tells me translates to “the truth alone triumphs”) and premiered exclusively on Indian radio stations this past Monday but, assuming you don’t live in India, we’ve got it below for you to hear. It’s also pretty cool, and I bet you never thought you’d hear Mick Jagger singing in Sanskrit.
