I would like to see a new wave of Positive Attitude, Feeling and Global Cooperation through Music. The current Pandemic is a catalyst for Isolation, Fear and Prejudice. Although this does not directly influence many of the extra problems that society has to deal with right now, the dampening effect and unknowns for the future bring out the worst in many of us.

Music has always been able to transcend Language and Culture. It doesn’t have the same effect on all people and is not always appreciated, but usually evokes an emotional response – as it is a True Art Form. Music has a powerful connection to memory. I don’t know if anyone knows why, but the evidence is there in just learning your A B Cs through a simple tune.

I am proposing an easier Online Forum to bring us all together musically. There are several very good musical artists of all ages uploading renditions of covers of popular music or their own work. (Yoyoka Soma (11) from Japan, Neil Sedaka (82) United States etc…) These YouTube short videos are a great individual effort and sometimes include the collaboration of friends to create a new original recording. I would like this to be greatly expanded. There needs to be an easier Interface / Forum to play or sing along with these videos and list them in an easily indexed manner. Listed by Uploading Musician, Band / Artist Covered, Reviews of Videos and Original Band Members played with. This should not be a primarily For Profit venture. Some reasonable expenses and modest salaries are acceptable. Any funds collected from Advertising – BETWEEN, NOT DURING – songs should more than 50% go to charity with the rest split between the Forum Platform, Artists and idea contributors.

I am issuing a challenge to the Original Members of Led Zeppelin (Robert Plant, Jimmy Page and John Paul Jones) to play along with Yoyoka’s newest drums only cover of "Good Times, Bad Times".

Emerging Musical Artists need more exposure to break through the stagnation of the Pandemic. More interaction musically may stimulate some Global Positivity through Music.
