Global 'Stand By Me'

This is just excellent - take one street musician singing 'Stand By Me', take the recording around the world and get other unknown local musicians to play along, and you end up with a fantastic version of an old classic.

Lovely stuff: http://gizmodo.com/5231112/best-video-ive-seen-today-will-make-you-smile
