Stand by Me

How's this for a sweet compilation/mash-up? It combines a bunch of street musicians and others together performing "Stand by Me." I especially like the prospector. While watching it I thought to myself, hmm, this has got to be an ad. Sure enough, it was for (Red)wire, and online music magazine.

It reminded me of the "Where the hell is Matt?" videos that were taken over by Stride, which were also awesome. The first was mostly just him traveling the globe dancing at random locations. After it went viral and made it big, Stride picked it up and paid for his second trip. The second featured the large following of Matt fans dancing with him.
