Stand By Me - Alrededor del mundo

Fragmentos de Stand By Me interpretados por cantantes callejeros alrededor del mundo. Una reivindicación del cambio.

El proyecto "Playing for Change" comenzó en 2004 de la mano de Mark Johnson y Enzo Buono, quienes viajaron alrededor del mundo con un estudio de grabación portátil, grabando a músicos locales cantando algunas canciones conocidas, cada cual en su estilo.

El objetivo del proyecto, según lo han definido sus protagonistas, es "inspirar, conectar, y llevar paz al mundo a través de la música".

En algunos de los temas han participado artistas famosos, como Manu Chao, o Bono, pero la gran mayoría de los músicos son prácticamente desconocidos a nivel internacional.

De entre todas las canciones grabadas, el primer tema que saliera a difusión fue "Stand By Me", el clásico de Ben E. King,
