If you ever needed an example of the power of music, all you need to do is watch the above viral video staring a homeless piano player named Donald Gould. His fantastic playing of “Come Sail Away” by Styx has him trending across social media, and has earned him exclusive coverage on ABC 7 news in Sarasota Fl. Within hours of this video being posed yesterday, it has already gotten over 1,000,000 hits!

I couldn't get that video to play but there's one at this link that worked for me.

Sad story; Donald Gould was a former marine who was attending college intending to become a music teacher when his wife died suddenly. He descended into substance abuse, lost his college place and custody of his three-year-old, and eventually ended up homeless.
