The song "Superman (It's Not Easy)" was one of the songs that Americans turned to in the days and weeks following the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks, offering comfort and a chance to reflect.
As we mark the 23rd anniversary of the attacks, we’re going to spend a few minutes exploring the significance of this particular song, from the musician who came up with it — John Ondrasik, better known by his stage name, Five for Fighting.
We’re going to revisit a conversation from "Where We Live." Connecticut Public’s Catherine Shen talked with Ondrasik last year about how he developed the song – and about how music can help us during our darkest moments.
