Mariah Carey has recorded the song, “Almost Home,” for “Oz The Great and Powerful,” the highly anticipated fantastical Disney adventure, directed by Sam Raimi, due in theaters on March 8.

“Almost Home” will be released as a single on February 19.

Award-winning photographer/director David LaChapelle will direct Carey in the music video for “Almost Home.” The two long-time collaborators are reuniting in what LaChapelle describes as “a duet between Mariah and the movie.” LaChapelle photographed Carey previously for album covers, and directed her in the music video “Loverboy.”

“’Almost Home’ has a message that works beautifully with the film,” says Mariah. “It’s a feel-good record; it gives you the feeling of reaching your home and being with people that you love.”

Watch the trailer for the film below.
