Give a Little Love, #578

Standard

There is a video floating around on Facebook that my husband posted this morning.  The title of the video is : “Videos That will Change Your Life.  I Have No Words Left.”  I decided to check it out and was so touched by the message that people have been responding to.

The video is actually a music video from a band out of England called Noah and the Whale, and the song is called “Give a Little Love.”  The concept behind the video is that we, the viewers, are peering in on acts of everyday kindness.  At the end of the video, a lone boy is painting a wall that has been graffitied, and people one by one begin joining him to help clean it up.  It is heart-warming, and the song is pretty cool, too.

What touches me most, however, is not the song and the video, but the idea that the song and video is moving people enough to share it.  The fact is, most people in this world are inherently good and recognize that acts of everyday kindness are what makes the world big and beautiful and special.

Noah and the Whale has profoundly touched people with their art, and isn’t that really the primary goal of any artist?  It’s wonderful to see someone successful in doing so, and that is why “Give a Little Love” is my song of the day.  I want to support their efforts and this message.  Click HERE to check out the song on Youtube.  Way to go, Noah and the Whale!  You’ve delivered a truly beautiful message, and this Songstress is applauding you today!

I am a music teacher for children ages 6-weeks-old - 8th grade. I am also a camp songleader and a Jewish music specialist with and without my husband who is known as Shabbat Scott. We love singing with people of all ages all over Tucson. My "song of the day" idea originally started by playing music challenges on Facebook. I loved choosing songs, and my friends seemed to love reading and listening to my choices. I have decided to continue a daily blog (or as daily as I can manage) and tell you all some stories through some songs that have touched me either in wonderful ways or by annoying the heck out of me. Hope you all enjoy this blog! Happy singing!
