I posted about this in "Everything Else" but either Im dumb to think this is totally amazing, or people in "Everything Else" have a totally crappy taste in music
I ask (beg) THE admins not to lock this... just lock the topic in "Everything Else".

In short, its a documentary that should come out sometimes in 09. Its about making the world a better place through music. The makers went around the world recording unknown (or little known) musicians and building music schools and stuff like that. 
The song selection is good, musicians are absolutely, ABSOLUTELY amazing, sound engineering is top notch, politics behind it are heartwarming... In any case, take few minutes to listen to the videos...



Bob Marleys "One Love" - one of my favourite lyrics to a song...




Ben E. Kings "Stand by Me" - To me the "Grandpa Elliott" is captivating (second artist to appear). I would very much like to sit in a bar/pub with him and listen to his life stories. He reminds me of my late grandfather...




Talkin' 'bout a Revolution




Do you think that music can play a part in peoples "decision making"? How influential the music can be?
Is the guy just wasting his time with this project?

Sadly the world is a cruel, vicious and selfish place and no amount of beautiful music will change that.

Music can change one person at a time at best and sadly evil moves at a faster pace than that.

I totally believe that music is an incredible medium for peace... musicians.. overall seem to be the most open to excepting other people for who they are and finding the good in each others differences...
Love is the answer
