Playing for Change is an organization sent out across the globe to prove that no matter what race, height, language, eye color, rich, poor, smart or not, music is the world's language.  Music has no boundaries, it speaks to no one and every one at the same time.  I pulled this video from Gizmodo, so it's not my original work.  The people at Playing for Change set up a mobile recording studio, started in Santa Monica, CA and traveled the entire world to prove a point.  Using the Ben E. King classic "Stand By Me," this video goes to show us (the world) that their point was made.  No boundaries, no language barriers, no hatred or animosity, just musicians joining together.  Please take the time to watch the entire video.. I promise you won't be disappointed.

Also go visit Playing for Change, check out their merchandise and read about their cause.  Songs like this one can be purchased and proceeds go to non-profits around the world.  I'll get off my soap box now.
