Wedding Song for the Commoners

With all the crap going on in the world, simply put, small things like this keep us going.



Here's what's awesome...this was made by "common people." No celebrities, nothin. Yet it inspired celebrities. I can go on and on about how YouTube allows the average citizen to make a name for themselves, but I'll just let TIME Magazine's 2006 Person of the Year article do it for me.

For those that do not know, the song is called "Forever" and is sung by Chris Brown. This was the guy that beat up Rihanna. Just another celebrity couple I guess. But what's interesting is that once the Rihanna-Chris Brown incident happened, the family that posted this video made a link for people to make donations to fight domestic abuse. Talk about taking power and attention and wielding it in the right direction.

The video became a hit overnight once it was posted on YouTube, and was even used in the wedding episode of The Office.



Celebrity talk/YouTube talk aside, this is ultimately one of those things that we need to brighten our day once in a while.
