“Don’t know much about history

Don’t know much biology

Don’t know much about a science book

Don’t know much about the French I took

But I do know that I love you

And I know that if you love me too

What a wonderful world this would be”

You will feel like singing these lyrics from Sam Cooke’s hit Wonderful World after seeing “Stand By Me” by Playing For Change:Song Around The World. This is a CD/DVD made by over 100 musicians around the world. The trouble is that it won’t be able until the Spring of 2009. One of its’ debuts was on the PBS Bill Moyers Report. Since it won’t be ready for this Holiday Season, Markdown Mom brings you this sample of this award winning documentary by Mark Johnson as her Christmas Card:

Playing For Change: Song Around the World, Stand By Me
