thanks for posting that...loved it!

Wow thanks for sharing! It's a very cool concept with a great cause. I'll bookmark the playing for change website so I can check it out in more detail later on.

Why haven't I seen this topic before? Wow! That was awesome, I loved it! Thanks, Elliottisastar.

So glad that you love it!! I just received the below information today that it's available on ITUNES with another song (must be new - never heard of it) and I bought them, but they downloaded videos! Playing for Change "Stand By Me" now has almost 5 million hits on You Tube! That's 2 million more then when I first posted this on January 3rd! Amazing!!
