My father loves this song, and this specific version of the song. Two months ago he got ill and was sent to the hospital. Later on he was diagnosed with glioblastoma, the worst kind of brain cancer. Doctors said treatment was not worth it because if he survived, he would be in coma for the rest of his life, unable to move, talk and even function properly without the help of medical support. He may depart at any moment. Dad, I love you with all my heart. Hope to see you again when my time comes. Till then, all I got is the memories of the wonderful time we had together. Thank you for everything you taught me, all the sacrifice you made so I could have a better life. I’ll miss you so much dad. When you meet grandpa and grandma, tell them I said hi, and that I miss them too.

The first time I watched this video was 6 years ago, when I was in college. At that time I regarded it as a great song which connected great musicians around the world. Now I have worked for almost two years and just quit my job to pursue something I really have passion on. I was confused and lost. I feel alone like an isolated island. And accidentally watch this again, I am deeply touched by the song itself. Really wanna cry

As a fellow musician, this gives me hope for the world. Spreading a message of positivity and inclusivity through music, a culturally ubiquitous experience, is an amazing one. There is nothing like seeing people of all different cultures, of all different walks of life, join together to sing a song like this almost brings me to tears. This is how we should be. Let this video be a lesson to everyone; this is how the world should be.

I'm an Englishman who has never travelled to America and through health I never will now, I should have took the chance while I had it. So unfortunately I never heard Roger Ridley play in real life as I believe he performed in that on spot on Santa Monica. I know very little about him except he wanted to change the world to a better place by people all over sharing their musical talent. A simple wish accompanied by music often at its simplest, surely it's not too much to ask? Stay safe everyone and who knows? If you close your eyes and wish hard enough maybe you'll hear Roger singing with Otis, Percy, Sam, BB and many others.

About every year or so I remember this video and seek it out again. I always forget how uplifting it is, that even when I feel so down it is capable of putting you back on your feet. Not only that, but it makes me wanna pick up my sax and play. There’s something just so feel good about this that even James Brown is jealous 😄. It really is a truly remarkable song, performed admirably by a bunch of folks all around the world being in sync with one another. What’s not to love?
