Let's Make a Better World


This song makes me smile and I think this message is especially apropos in these changing times, as well as a tribute to 9/11
Remembering the importance for people to Pull Together, Go Hand in Hand because truly we Are All One Part of a Whole

Could not find a Live Clip but click on the THIS LINK for a music video with pix of him

"The world we know was built on skills
But that alone don't count.
Without the sweat and toil of mine
It wouldn't be worth a dime.
You got to live and give, share and care
Really put some love in the air.
When your neighbor's down, try to pick him up
Nobody can live in despair.

Society has no priority
We're all one part of a whole.
When people scream and shout
You hafta hear 'em out
Everybody is a beautiful soul.

You gotta pull together, go hand in hand
You really got to do your best.
Wouldn't it be a perfect sight to see
The whole world filled with happiness

Everybody let's sing, sing, sing... (Let freedom ring)
Let's all pitch in to do our thing, make a better world to live in.
Everybody let's sing, sing, sing... (Let freedom ring)
Let's all pitch in to do our thing, make a better world to live in.
Everybody let's sing, sing, sing..."

And if you haven't heard of Dr. John aka Mac Rebennack (5 time Grammy Winner and Music Hall of Fame Inductee 2011) He is a master of jazz, blues, New Orleans Groove piano or as he says, Funkology
You may recognize this song, "Right Place, Wrong Time" and with this LIVE clip of his piano brilliance - playing the Hammond and the Piano at the same time.
(The skull and other paraphernalia? The New Orleans voodoo was a big influence on his earlier music, as well as the inspiration for his stage name)

PS I am so charmed I can't help it!
Here's another clip of Dr. Johns Ah-Mazing Piano
"There Must Be a Better World

PSS For those of you Muppet Fans? Dr. John was the inspiration for Dr. Teeth - keyboard player ;)
OK! Nuff said
