Playing For Change

Now this is why I love the Interwebz. When browsing around today, I stumbled upon this little gem of a video on YouTube. 

Picture this: You go up to a street artist and ask him to sing you a song, in this case "Stand by Me" by Ben E. King. Then go to another musician somewhere else in the world, give him a pair of headphones and ask that musician to add to the recording. Repeat this process again and again,with musicians from around the world, and you end up with a song that crosses borders and cultures, a masterpiece. 

The cause is peace. The method is music. Check out the video below.
