The simplicity of the question ... the passion in his voice ... the love hiding behind a riddle. But most importantly, the awakening of such a young man who is able to stir your soul to actually "hear" the question and urge you to search deeply within to find the answer. What an amazing and soufully felt message communicated through the innocence of a child. The least we can do is remember this long after we've experienced some splendidly emotional moments -- long after we've left the website; let's not only answer it, but dance a dance of wonder that has slowly begun to tire of being ignored. -

I am too touched to tell why I am crying now. The question of why we do not help those who need it so badly is perplexing. We all can do something-even if it is praying for them. -

This is a beautiful song with an essential message. I was absolutely captivated by this young spirit of a boy asking such an important question: "tell me why?

Aside from the question asked in the song, the perspective of the camera angle captivated me. Here, is a child - looking UP - appealing to the adult listener who is looking DOWN on the child. Then, at the end of the video as the camera pans back, the child is looking straight on. This equalizes the playing field and I, as a child, am wondering why I have no answer for this, my fellow human being.
