Phillip Phillips, Sara Bareilles and many others
appear on montage video for the cancer
patient's song.
In a loving
display of
compassion
and
support,
top music
acts Jason
Mraz ,
Jason
Derulo ,
Sara
Bareilles
and many
more appear for the celebrity music video for
"Clouds", a beautiful song written by terminal
cancer patient Zach Sobiech. The almost-four-
minute montage video was put together for the
17-year-old Sobiech, who suffers from
osteosarcoma or bone cancer and only
hasweeks to live and who wrote the sweet indie
pop song as a way to say goodbye to family
and friends.
Those who filmed themselves singing the lyrics
to "Clouds" were such artists as Colbie Caillat,
Andy Grammer , The Lumineers , and "American
Idol" alums Paul McDonald and Phillip Phillips
who himself also suffers from a painful but
less life-threatening kidney ailment. Mraz
closes out the heartwarming visuals, speaking
to Sobiech and saying, "Thank you, Zach,
you're written a great song dude, it's a real
pleasure to sing it, and sing it with you, thank
you."
The montage was put together by " The Office"
star Rainn Wilson and actor Justin Baldoni who
directed "My Last Days", a short documentary
about Sobiech which airs on Wilson's
"SoulPancake" YouTube channel. Other
celebrities who lent their time for the video
were Ashley Tisdale , Anna Faris, Rachel Bilson,
Chris Pratt , Jenna Elfman , Jenna Fischer, and
Ed Helms.
Sobiech first recorded the song and posted it
on video hosting site YouTube last December 5,
2012. It has since been seen by almost 3
million viewers. He has been using his
remaining time to help bring awareness and
find a cure that will save the lives of other
cancer sufferers like him.
