Stand by Me - Playing for Change
เพิ่งได้ยินบทสัมภาษณ์ในวิทยุที่เจ๋งมากๆ
Mark Johnson เป็นนักเขียนสารคดีท่องเที่ยวให้กับ Condé Nast ที่ใช้เวลาหลายปีบันทึกบทเพลงที่แสดงโดยวณิพก (Street Musicians) จากทั่วโลก จนบทเพลงที่เค้าทำขึ้นมากลายเป็นโครงการส่งเสริมสันติภาพผ่านดนตรีชื่อ Playing for Change เพลง Stand By Me เวอร์ชั่นนี้ฟังแล้วน้ำตาไหล... ท่วงทำนองที่สอดประสานกันอย่างไร้ที่ติ เต็มไปด้วยจิตวิญญาณทำให้รู้สึกว่า บางที... บางที... กำแพงระหว่างชนชั้นและเชื้อชาติอาจจะทะลายลงได้ผ่านเสียงเพลงจริงๆ
Mark Johnson has spent years traveling around the world recording street musicians. He calls his project "Playing for Change". This version of Stand by Me really brings tears to my eyes. Hearing the seamless and harmonious tune sung by musicians from around the world rekindles my hope...perhaps there really ARE no boundaries among the human race.

STAND BY ME
by Ben E.King
When the night has come
And the land is dark
And the moon is the only light we'll see
No I won't be afraid, no I won't be afraid
Just as long as you stand, stand by me
And darlin', darlin', stand by me, oh now now stand by me
Stand by me, stand by me
If the sky that we look upon
Should tumble and fall
And the mountains should crumble to the sea
I won't cry, I won't cry, no I won't shed a tear
Just as long as you stand, stand by me
And darlin', darlin', stand by me, oh stand by me
Stand by me, stand by me, stand by me-e, yeah
Whenever you're in trouble won't you stand by me, oh now now stand by me
Oh stand by me, stand by me, stand by me
Darlin', darlin', stand by me-e, stand by me
Oh stand by me, stand by me, stand by me

Parting
As I see your wispy pink petals revealing their delicate beauty in soft murmuring rain, I am saddened by the impending parting… This will be the last time that I gaze longingly into your shady embrace… your reassuring presence that have somehow influenced my moods… the unspoken bonds that we formed throughout these years… I will miss you so.. If “parting is such sweet sorrow,, then “I shall say good night till it be morrow.”

Dorothea Lange's 1936 Migrant Mother
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dorothea_Lange
Just another personal mental note. I have seen this iconic photo of America's Great Depression for such a long time but the identity of the photographer was never registered in my mind until my recent visit to SFMOMA. I just found out that she became famous here in the San Francisco Bay Area and used to live in Berkeley. In 1945, Lange was invited by Ansel Adams to accept a position as faculty at the first fine art photography department at the California School of Fine Arts (CSFA).
California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger and First Lady Maria Shriver announced on May 28, 2008 that Lange will be inducted into the California Hall of Fame, located at The California Museum for History, Women and the Arts. The induction ceremony took place on December 15 and her son accepted the honor in her place.
