A friend of mine shared this link with me. Its a montage of different street performers around the world singing/playing Stand By Me.

Check it out.

Great video! Amazing.

It starts right here on the promenade in Santa Monica. I think that's cool.

Uncertainty may make you uncomfortable. Certainty makes you ridiculous.

Why not question something for a change?

Very cool Dude. I forwarded to my wife. It was our wedding song. Should score me some major points.

The foundation of morality is to . . . give up pretending to believe that for which there is no evidence, and repeating unintelligible propositions about things beyond the possibliities of knowledge.

Great stuff. Its cool that they can play along with previous tracks via the head phones, building up an international "mix" of the song.

P.S. I love New Orleans - French Quarter. Been there many times, always great music in the clubs and on the street.

Diversity, independence, innovation and imagination are progressive concepts ultimately alien to the conservative mind.
