We're proud to present this Song Around The World, "Lean On Me," for The Art of Saving a Life campaign! The support of our Playing For Change global family just goes to show the amazing impact art can have on people everywhere. Enjoy this video and join us in sharing all of the art created in this effort to improve children’s health around the world!
About The Art of Saving a Life:
Despite great progress, one in five children today do not have access to the life-saving vaccines they need. The Art of Saving a Life, a project commissioned by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, is a collection of stories about how vaccines continue to change the course of history. It offers an opportunity to hear, see and feel the tremendous impact of immunization, and to energize us in the global effort to protect every child from life-threatening disease. These stories are told by more than 30 world-renowned photographers, painters, sculptors, writers, filmmakers, and musicians to impress urgency on the global community to reach all children with the life-saving vaccines they need.

Playing For Change (PFC) is a movement created to inspire and connect the world through music, born from the shared belief that music has the power to break down boundaries and overcome distances between people. The primary focus of PFC is to record and film musicians performing in their natural environments and combine their talents and cultural power in innovative videos called Songs Around The World. Creating these videos motivated PFC to form the Playing For Change Band-a tangible, traveling representation of its mission, featuring musicians met along their journey; and establish the Playing For Change Foundation-a separate 501(c)3 nonprofit organization dedicated to building music and art schools for children around the world. Through these efforts, Playing For Change aims to create hope and inspiration for the future of our planet.

Whew, man. When a song too perfect for ‘cover’ performances, Playing For Change does it beautifully. When it seems there’s no hope for humanity, PFC proves there just might be some. This was exactly what my day needed. Thank you!
This is hope for humanity-“ For evil men will be done away with. But the meek will possess the earth, and they will find exquisite delight in the abundance of peace.” Psalm 37.
What do you think about it?
Well said
Another good one is he ain't heavy he's my brother the original not Donny and Marie or whoever else thought they could do it as well, they didn't it was ok this one is great

Can we have a Grammy award for geniuses like this one can splice and mix vids and audios from all over the world and from different musicians and singers into a masterpiece like this.
Any time you get to hear Grandpa and Clarence together, you feel like you are one step closer to heaven.
RIP Grandpa.
If only humanity could share the wealth,and save itself! 😢this is the garden of Eden ,if only we understood that ,It’s not a for profit planet
If only ….
Old standard!!! Forever
RIP Granpa Elliot
This made me sad and happy!
I came from parents who didn’t
hug or comfort. So I didn’t trust or have any one to lean on!
I change it! My 4 kids are loved,
hugged and We danced in the rain and laugh and sing!😃🥰
💗
God bless you sister.
I'm a parent of four myself. I too had troubled younger days.. feeling lonely and alone without a soul who cares. Music is what kept me going.. Now the six of us listen to this together, grow together ❤
I'm organizing a rally to raise awareness about suicide and opioid ods and this song is the theme.
How's the organizing going?
@@mabel2687 sad to say it has been postponed indefinitely
Peace & Love to All Around the World
Let Music Show the Way to Everyone
RIP Grandpa Elliot! he's ALWAYS been my all-time favorite in PFC!
Ahh sad to hear he's passed on
Grandpa Elliot still keeps me smiling every time I hear his singing
May he rest in peace
I had the honor of seeing him on the streets of NOLA years ago. Didn't realize the treasure I was seeing at the time.
May he rest in music...
RIP
Red and yellow black and white we are precious in Gods sight we have more in common than you think let's try to do what's right.
I wish I could send a thank you card to every artist😊
Man, Grandpa Elliot has an amazing voice! This is my favorite cover of one of the best songs ever written.
I’ve watched him perform in New Orleans multiple times. Just returned from a trip there and it was my first time there since he died. Now I have a painting of him on my wall. At least I got to listen to him a few times before he died🎷
Let's all lean on each today, just a little extra, in memory of Bill.
RIP Bill Withers (July 4, 1938 - March 30, 2020)
He will be missed
I miss him. Never met the man, but my soul feels that loss.
Sad
Rest easy old man.
Inspiration to a younger generation after all your own trials and tribulations you encountered during your life.
Respect and love
He died the day after my birthday
Jesus fed the five thousand by making them sit down in groups and share food. The miracle of abundance lives on. Sharing is the answer of Jesus.
6 years ago coming back on the algorythm today when its needed ....dont we all need somebody to lean on these days .... i woke a broken man today but i think i can make it now
You got this ✊✊🙏
RIP Bill Withers. Thank you for your service across the world, you’ll be missed

We (our team), used to sing this song in the locker room before our Friday varsity football games. Everyone was off beat with the clap, besides me lmao!
'06-'07 Freer Buckaroos. We went 3 rounds deep in the Play-offs. Good memories!
Enjoy all the songs here. Playing for change it just awesome.
Brilliant, Thank You in memory of Bill Withers, also relevant right now, with this Global Pandemic, Stay Safe and Well Everyone, All Over the World and Find Someone to 'Lean On'; God Bless, XXXX
So wonderful thank you
Playing for change forever....
Whoever came up with this idea should receive a medal. Great stuff.
Love the singing and music from people from all over the world.
One love ... one world
My mother is suffering from Multiple Myleoma, and the drugs aren't working anymore, we're transitioning to more hard-core therapy, and I'm really scared. We have a CT scheduled in January. I needed this.
We are the world, together. Thank you, Bill and Melinda, for supporting these great human beings all over the Earth in getting their music to each other, creating something blessed for all of us.
Help each other a little every day.
I know I am just an old man but Playing for change gives me hope1
your playing what i been saying for months thank you very much
One planet, one people
we should all listen to this his will help the world alot!!!!!!!
Thank God for Music it has no COLOR ✌💙
Gone but not forgotten
Now around the world with the United Nations Lean on me
The right song and the right artists for these tough times. Thank you
Hi! I have something for you! Troubles on the earth prove that God’s Kingdom will soon act. 2 Timothy 3:1-5.
“For evil men will be done away with. But the meek will possess the earth, and they will find exquisite delight in the abundance of peace.” Psalm 37.
I did not miss the fact that Saritah is in perfect harmony with Grandpa Elliot. Great song! well done.
Super music and song, thanks
No colour, no religion, no country. Just people and music and love.
Bow to all the musicians around the world. Bringing back live to the music. Awesome. 🎧🎶🎵🎼🌍
Way to go!👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
We whose ears hear, while wisdom tells us how to survive, need this on a huge, continuous loop. My prayer.
I wish America was still a country where you could still lean on people. People are more concerned about their sanitized bermuda lawns and gated neighborhoods than about helping a neighbor. How far America has fallen!!!!
Great to see South Africa contributing. How is it possible that musicians from all over the world can live and sing in harmony and in contrast two neighboring countries go to war. Where is the love?
This is my favorite channel. So many wonderful people.
This song is important to what we are experiencing in the world today! We need to lean on each other , support when you can and just be one another’s keeper during these difficult times. Love always wins .
Thank you.
Excellent. Thank you
I just love this concept. watching these videos always brings tears to my eyes. It's such a simple concept. Music can bring the world together.
I had the same reaction, Its so simple, just love one another!
YES!! thank you so much for this comment. So happy you had such a great reaction to our message!
Glad to know I'm not the only one that tears up when I watch these. Pure Beauty, almost too much to handle

:'D
The violinists at 2:03 give me tears and chills every time!
Las Rosas Angelinas. (Had to watch it again.)
Doesn't get any better than PFC!!
I lost both my grandpas long time ago, I lost my father when I was 12..
Grandpa Elliot is filling that gap in my life through music..
His soulful voice gives me peace, love and soul when I need it the most..
God bless you Grandpa Elliot.. I wish I could give you a hug..
With lots of love from Kerala, India.
Peace on Earth

The Great Granpa Elliot!!
Yes indeed--Have you noticed the way, in either Stand by Me and.or Dock in the Bay--the rolling up and showing the whites of his eyes as he "goes skyward to heaven:"--such a love for life!
