Stand By Me.... it's one of those songs

I've got a couple of great posts in this blog of some phenomenal takes on artists performing the great Ben King song, "Stand By Me".

Here's the world version:

Here's the old clip of Springsteen and U2 jamming it:

I've been having a Neville brothers kind of weekend and found this incredible tribute that Aaron did to Ed Bradley after his death in 2006. It's just as meaningful, just as jaw-dropping as either of the two above. Enjoy.

An interesting trio of clips. I'd be hard pressed to say which version I liked best.

Just watched the movie (again) recently so the song has been on my brain.

One of my favorite movies, too, Kel.
