On December 7th, 2009 at 1:30pm GMT Starbucks invited musicians from all over the world to sing together at the same time to raise awareness for AIDS in Africa. In that one breathtaking moment, musicians from 156 countries played “All You Need is Love” together. Watch now, as musicians from all around the world come together and share a song.Join in by lending your own voice to http://StarbucksLoveProject.com Watch streaming video from countries around the world and then join in by singing All You Need is Love yourself. For each video submitted, Starbucks will make a contribution to the Global Fund to help fight against AIDS in Africa. You can also help increase the Starbucks contribution to the Global Fund by submitting a drawing to the Love Gallery.

The global sing-along is part of our continuing efforts to help fight AIDS in Africa. In just one year in partnership with (RED)™, Starbucks has generated money equivalent to more than 7 million days of medicine to help those living with HIV in Africa.

We were driving in the village and we saw this bunch of balloons on a motorcycle- we went after it to take a picture!  I thought it was a unique moment to capture!  I am glad they made it safely..looked a bit dangerous… but a nice sight to see on Valentine’s Day!p1070677.JPG

Closer You and I

By | Heart Songs, Valentine's Day | 4 Comments

Last week while I was driving, I heard this song on the radio and I remembered and recognized it right away as a Close Up commercial a long time ago.  I used to love watching the Close Up commercials as a teenager!

Heart2Heart is CHEEZY because she loves CHEESE!  miniheartsmilingimages2.jpg

I searched for it in YOU Tube, and this is what I found.  It is not clear…but anyway many of you might remember this….

 [wp_youtube]5355XztHoPE&feature[/wp_youtube]

Gino Padilla is the original version singing in that commercial – I could not find any nice video of him singing it himself so I chose this with the lyrics of the song

[wp_youtube]Sx1Fp7uTW7c&feature[/wp_youtube]

And now, Piolo has a version!! Love Piolo! Oops! Love his version!   miniheartsmilingimages2.jpg

[wp_youtube]PM2C52Vj-Gg&feature[/wp_youtube]

Piolo’s version with no video but with clearer audio, when you just want to listen to the song…hayyy…miniheartsmilingimages2.jpg
