ONE LOVE / 上を向いて歩こう [SING OUT from JAPAN] 3.11.2011

a friend of mine sent me this Youtube link. Different people from the areas of Japan that were hit by the March 11, 2011 earthquake/tsunami.

Some of you may recognize the song. For those who don't, it's called Ue o muite arukō better known as "Sukiyaki." Kyu Sakamoto sang it in the 60's.

The choice of the song is all the more powerful since the Japanese lyrics translate to "I will walk looking up so my tears won't fall."
