?This song says, no matter who you are, no matter where you go in your life ? at some point you’re going to need somebody to stand by you.? – Roger Ridley, Santa Monica, California
This is by far my favorite rendition of this song. I’ve always had a sweet spot for the song “Stand By Me” anyway and this one got me good.
From the Playing For Change website:
?Playing For Change is a movement created to inspire and connect the world through music. The idea for this project came from a common belief that music has the power to break down boundaries and overcome distances between people.?
Since 2002, co-founders Mark Johnson and Whitney Kroenke have hit the streets of America (and around the world) with a mobile recording studio and cameras. The end product has been pretty amazing.
Watch for yourself.
