her singing “The Journey”. Six Triple EightTyler Perry’s Netflix movie about the real women who delivered mail in Europe during World War II. Diane Warren wrote the song and said she is still mesmerized by singing it.

“It’s Whitney-level,” Warren said during a panel discussion at Deadline’s Sound & Screen Film musical screening. “I don’t even know if anyone has ever heard her sing that way.”

Kerry Washington, Ebony Obsidian, Milauna Jackson and other stars play the women of the 6888th Central Postal Guide Battalion, who faced not only wartime turmoil but also discrimination just for doing their job. Warren said her real name (real name Gabriella Sarmiento Wilson) could relate to the themes of the movie and the song.

Warren said: “Her journey has been amazing,” Warren said. “We all have our own journey. There’s no easy journey. The beautiful thing is that it works within the movie beautifully. That’s when the song is great.

The recording of “The Journey” was a whirlwind. Warren played the demo of it and the singer decided to record it immediately.

Warren said: “When I played her the song, she became very emotional,” he said. “We recorded it in my studio literally that day. She sang it and played guitar and piano and went back to New York and played strings and stuff. I was sitting there, and I don’t know if I’ve ever heard a performance like that. When you see it in a movie too, I’ve seen cynical people from the record companies there at shows sobbing.

Aaron Zigman composed the score for Six Triple Eight. He said he included “The Journey” in one pivotal scene that he didn’t want to spoil because it came late in the movie (the Netflix movie premieres on the streaming device on Dec. 20).

Zigman said: “There’s a scene towards the last part of the movie, a very emotional scene, that I’m taking her incredible theme and putting it in half the time.” “Very close, near the end, we hear her song. I’m helping to set it up, so to speak.

Zigman relied on another key scene for his other musical motifs.

Zigman said: “They’re just getting off the ship.” “I’m sure you’ve heard stories about how difficult those trips are. They are expected to march right away. Seeing them all in one unit, one voice, so to speak. I wanted to write something that represented these women as an elegant form. I used a kind of open American feeling, just an open elegance to celebrate.
