A truly moving story and song, and its real. Check the Milan live version for Miss Sarajevo on youtube if you want to listen to it. Its about lost love, war, and redemption. I was depressed these days, and these help me to realize that my existential problem is nothing compares to Dante's hell.

Amazing grace - Ben Underwood

He is blind, yet he is not blind. A truly amazing story. A Boy who sees with sound. Just like dolphins, bats. A boy who refused to become what people think he should be.
"I am not blind. I just can't see."
