Stand By Me

Today I am gonna talk to you guys about the the music video "Stand By Me" created by Playing for Change. This video does the Ben E. King's song justice with multiple people utilizing there talents to recreate the song in different parts of the world. It focuses mostly on those who seem to be street performers. although they could of got famous people to do it they decided to keep the video humble by using those who go unrecognized. The video is very fitting to the song as the song speaks on equality and loving each other, while the video is made up with people all around the world showing how we are all alike. I admired some very amazing parts of this video. One of my favorites is when they have 3 men from different parts of the world singing the same verse and editing it together to make it one voice.

I think the way they edited the video really made his message clear that we are all one people and theirs no need for us to fight. In a way his message is inspiring the way he plays on our emotions by bringing in the less fortunate people from around the world to make this video. The fact that they traveled around the world and it took them about 10 years to make this video it shows they were really dedicated to create something unique and special, letting people know to never give up on something important to them. The mail idea I get from this video is that no matter where out from we are all the same, we can all come to together and work out our differences. If you haven't seen this video you should really go watch it on the link below
