Once again, my friend Jill came through with another good find. She sent this along a while back and as much as I loved the video I just hadn’t gotten around to posting it. Yesterday though, I was listening to an NPR podcast when a story about this very project popped up and I couldn’t help but be inspired once again.
Producer Mark Johnson heard a musician named Rodger Rigley playing ‘Stand by me’ on the streets of Santa Monica CA one afternoon. He was so inspired by the mans voice and the the song that he asked if he could come back with a camera and some recording equipment to capture him playing. Johnson took this first recording and morphed it into a collection of street musicians from all over the world playing the same song together. All connected though a single song. It’s a beautiful thing.
The was originally posted a few months ago.. but I thought it might be nice for it to have a repeat performance!
Happy Pills is a CANDY SHOP in Barcelona. I’m hoping they franchise and take over the world!
Tucked literally between two buildings on Avinguda del Portal de l’Angel, the Happy Pills shop would be fairly easy to miss. That is, if it weren’t for the crowd of tourists and gawkers outside the space. I had to wait more than a few minutes to get a clear shot of the facade.
One inside, you’re met by a wall of various gummie candies. You pick what size “prescription” you want, then you fill the bottle up to your liking. After that, they seal the bottle with a tamper-proof cap and let you choose which label best suits your mood, in either Spanish or English…..via Mocoloco

I came across this via VeryShortList and had to share. The beginning is so melancholy, so perfectly mysterious, and it quickly transform into.. well.. something so worth waiting for .. so worth waiting for that I’m not giving any endings away..
