Green Show Studio (in USA) ran an online competition for singers and songwriters to submit their music videos. But when they got a letter from Fred Stobaugh, a 96-year-old man who’d written a song about his recently deceased wife, they had to do something with it.
Here’s a touching video that tells the story:

They had Fred’s song professionally recorded (both music and lyrics) and released it on iTunes. A lovely story.
Take care,

The kind people at Total Media are offering one lucky reader a chance to win a copy of Richard Wiseman’s latest book Rip It Up.
We all love a good self-help book but Rip It Up is unique for two reasons. First and most importantly is it’s approach is to change behaviour rather than thoughts. Most self-help books focus on changing the way you think – but there’s decades of research that show if you make small changes to your behaviour it effects the way that you think. Secondly, it’s written by Richard Wiseman a Professor for the Public Understanding of Psychology at the University of Hertfordshire. Richard has researched what really makes people change and transform their lives, so his book is evidence-based rather than being another self-help book that’s wooly with vague references to research. |
Here’s a video interview with Richard Wiseman, in which he tells you more about Rip It Up:
