Nickleback: "When We Stand Together"
I have heard this song playing on our local radio station over the last couple of weeks and finally stopped to listen to the words yesterday.
I was so moved by this song that I just had to see what the Video was all about. You can watch the video here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=76RbWuFll0Y&ob=av2e (copy and paste this link into your browser).
Just listen to the words, "We Must Stand Together...hand in hand forever...that's when we all win." The video pictures everything from war, to poverty and even the war on hunger. There is a picture of people carrying sacks and gathering items in a Waste Management Site...this is survival for many living in Third World Countries. I have read previously, that in one location, there are as many as 700 people living in this type of environment - they do not have jobs or income and are desperate.
Did you know that there are countries so stricken with poverty that many residents live at the "Dump?" They all run to the coming garbage trucks so that they can be the first to eat the best discarded food or salvage aluminum cans to sell for money?
"I have always said that there is strength in numbers. If we stand together, we will survive and achieve. "
Both the Beat and the Words of this song are so incredibly powerful and the pictures in the video are moving...if you find yourself going through difficult times, this song is an eye opener!
