I look at all the lonely people.

All The Lonely People by The Beatles is a beautiful mix of classic Beatles alternative rock with classical instrumentals. The lyrics of the song are as followed:

I look at all the lonely people.
I look at all the lonely people.

Ella Marigby
Picks up the rice in the church where her wedding has been;
Lives in a dream.
Waits at the window,
Wearing a face that she keeps in a jar by the door.
Who is it for?
All the lonely people, where do they all come from?
All the lonely people, where do they all belong?

Father MacKenzie
Writing the words of a sermon that no one will hear;
No one comes near.
Look at him working,
Nodding his socks in the night when there's nobody there.
What does he care?
All the lonely people, where do they all come from?
All the lonely people, where do they all belong?

I look at all the lonely people.
I look at all the lonely people.

Ella Marigby
Died in the church and was buried alone with her name.
Nobody came.
Father MacKenzie
Wiping the dirt from his hands as he walks from her grave.
No one was saved.
All the lonely people, where do they all come from?
All the lonely people, where do they all belong?

Although the song has many references and meanings I think a wonderful thing about it is that it can relate to many of our continental issues in the modern world, as it may have worked for issues back then as well. This song was made around the time of Vietnam, as most of their songs were written to protest the war. But when I listen to the lyrics and the beautiful classic violins accompanied by the corky whiny voices of Paul, John, Ringo, and George I relate to the situation Haiti is now in because of the devastating earthquake. On that note, everyone should know that you don't have to be Lady Gaga, Molly Sims, Dave Matthews, or Angelina Jolie to do something to help their country. These are just a few of the names associated with hollywood and the Haiti relief effort. But everyday amazing people can do something to, even if it's just as simple as buying an adorable t-shirt. The money for these t-shirts that are sold at department stores like Saks and Nordstroms go to the Haiti relief effort and to research for AIDS. All it takes is something to 11$ or 42$ depending on where you purchase, but any money at all can buy abundances of food and clothing for the devastated people of Haiti. Remember we're all in this together, and nobody is alone.
