Play for Change


Wouldn't it be nice if everyone just got along? If everyone in the world could be brought together as one? These videos are about how we should and CAN come together as a human race and how music can be one of the greatest ways to do this. This project took about 4 years to make and get all this film. In these videos all these people are street performers and none of them have never met in person. They all believe that through music they are able to come together and their belief that on this planet we are able to do more together than we ever could from being apart.

Watching these people was so amazing to me. I just loved listening to them all. It truly blows my mind how something such as music can be so powerful and a way to bring people together. This is the way I think people should be, coming together under one roof and getting along. I always love watching the street acts that people put on, especially in major cities. It is so amazing how God has given them such an amazing talent. They may be playing on the streets and "playing for change" if you will, but they are doing a much greater deed. They are bringing people happiness. You always see crowds of people surrounding some guy playing the guitar or something, they are all coming together. No one is thinking of their troubles or who they hate, they are thinking about the music and singing along.

"Let's get together and feel alright."






Thank you for watching. I hope they brought a smile to your face like they did with mine. :)
