Andy Madadian, dubbed The Prince of Persian Music,
teams up with Bon Jovi and friends to sing Stand By Me
in solidarity with the people of Iran.
Madadian, who is a legendary Persian - Armenian music exile, has been selected to sing with artists from around the world in the World Peace musical collaboration. He recently won two Central Asian Music Awards for Most Popular Singer and Best International Singer.
Susan notes: I have always loved this tune, which has been sung by various artists including Ben E. King, John Lennon, Oasis and others. It brings me comfort and joy in times of pain, loneliness and despair. From this day forward, it will have even more meaning to me. Thank God, the angels and the universe for music, and for the power it has to bring people together.
Stand By Me
When the night has come
And the land is dark
And the moon is the only light we'll see
No I won't be afraid, no I won't be afraid
Just as long as you stand, stand by me
And darlin', darlin', stand by me, oh now now stand by me
Stand by me, stand by me
If the sky that we look upon
Should tumble and fall
And the mountains should crumble to the sea
I won't cry, I won't cry, no I won't shed a tear
Just as long as you stand, stand by me
And darlin', darlin', stand by me, oh stand by me
Stand by me, stand by me, stand by me-e, yeah
Whenever you're in trouble won't you stand by me, oh now now stand by me
Oh stand by me, stand by me, stand by me
Darlin', darlin', stand by me-e, stand by me
Oh stand by me, stand by me, stand by me
