Why We Love Jon Bon Jovi

I usually don't just post things that come across in my Google because y'all have usually seen it anyway, but this one made me smile ...

Songs Written By Children Who Stutter Bring Artists Together in a Calling for Compassion
June 23rd Album to Benefit Our Time Organization

On June 23rd, a remarkable album, eight years in the making, will be released. Listen is a collection of 15 original songs, written by children who stutter, and recorded by iconic artists including Carly Simon, Daryl Hall and John Oates, Duncan Sheik, John Forte, Mandy Patinkin and many others. In addition, Jon Bon Jovi donated the use of his studio, so that his state-of-the-art facility could support the recording process.

Superstars from the worlds of pop, rock, R&B, Broadway, hip-hop and more joined together to contribute their time and talents to a cause bigger than stuttering – a call for compassion and acceptance, and for respect of one-another’s differences.
...
Our Time is a non-profit organization centered on a one-of-a-kind Arts program that provides children who stutter with an environment of unconditional acceptance…a creative forum, where they can express themselves through art, and fueled by the incomparable energy of Musical Director Everett Bradley, Our Time Theatre Company is a free resource for these children and their families. There is no place quite like Our Time.

So, yes ... we love the music. It's what brought us to Jon Bon Jovi in the first place. But, it's all these additional layers that keep us coming back ...

P.S. And you've gotta love a man who supports his friends ...
