Yet another fabulous Band out of Los Angeles, California, Pleasure
Burn (click to see the bands’ website), has dedicated their Art and Exceptional Musical talent to a worthy and notable cause that has already
created quite a stir globally shortly following the Terrorist attack in Paris
on November 13th, 2015. This notable Rock band on the rise has
elected to participate in the Play It Forward Campaign (click here to view) and has created a beautiful tribute video for their cover of the song ‘I Love
You All The Time’, an original song by Eagles of Death Metal. This movement (one of many) is meant to honor
the memory of all those who lost their lives in the attack and is a testament
to just how beautifully the Music Community always comes together for the sake
of humanity.
In close conjunction with the band’s management and The
Studio Venue (click here to view their website) where the LIVE performance will take place tomorrow at 8pm PST. The link
provided is where fans can go to ‘tip’ or ‘buy the band a drink’ during or
after their performance. This brilliant performance by Pleasure Burn will be
LIVE for your viewing pleasure on the front page of Starlight Music Chronicles www.starlightmusicchronicles.com so tune in! We will follow up with a special ‘SPOTLIGHT’ on the band with an
exclusive interview in the coming weeks. In addition, once the YouTube video the band has created is launched, we will post it in the 'Our Faves' section of the website for a period of 2 weeks.
-History of the Play It Forward Campaign-
The Play It Forward Campaign was set up by Eagles of Death
Metal, to challenge their peers in the Music Community to create a ‘cover’ of
their song so that all money collected from the sales of each recording of ‘I
Love You All The Time’ goes to The Sweet Stuff Foundation and to the family of
fallen friend and industry professional Nick Alexander who, sadly, passed in
the terrorist attack . The Sweet Stuff Foundation was founded to give
assistance to career Musicians, Recording Engineers and their Families
struggling with illness and disability. (click here to find out more about this foundation).
For your convenience, we have put a list of all the Musicians that have
participated below as well as the ‘Letter from Eagles of Death Metal’ who
initially began this crusade.

LETTER FROM EAGLES OF DEATH METAL
Hello talented friend, The senseless and violent terrorist
attacks of Nov. 13, 2015 in Paris have left us all unsettled and we dare not
give another second of precious time to those who have tried to steal our
freedoms and take away our power.
Instead, we are writing to ask for your help to Play It
Forward. We are calling upon our friends to donate their time, talent and good
will in a show of solidarity to help the victims of these atrocious acts in
Paris and those affected by terrorism worldwide.
We are asking for you to cover our song "I Love You All
The Time." For every cover sold, we pledge to donate 100% of the
publishing income to The Sweet Stuff Foundation. We ask that you also donate the
money generated from sales of the song to the charity.
In the same spirit, we would encourage you to offer one of
your songs up to be covered by another artist, and follow suit - donate the
publishing monies to charity - The Play it Forward Initiative.
Whether you're Soul or R&B; Hip Hop or Hippy; Garage,
Goth, Country, Punk or Pop; Death Metal or DJ; It matters not. Whether your
version is faithful to ours, instrumental, uses only lyrics or fragments
thereof or is completely reimagined in every way, it matters not. Your
individual musical differences become our collective strength. Simultaneously,
we will call upon iTunes, Tidal, Amazon, Spotify & all others who will sell
these covers, to join us and donate their portions to a charity as a symbol of
unity. So many wonderfully talented artists have offered their love &
support or have reached out asking, "How can we help?" Our answer is
simple; Unite with us. All of us. The musicians, the bands, the music companies
& the fans. because we are music. We are the anthems of great nations. We
are the songs of our forefathers. We are the hymns of God. The songs of the
broken hearted. The unchained melodies. The songs of puppy love & of love
that cannot be broken. We are the music of hope & possibility. We are the
call to arms. We are the chorus of victory. We are songs in the key of life.
We are the Champions... of the World.
In the event our song doesn't float your boat, we encourage
you to help unite our business by any means possible. If you're drawing a
blank, donate something of yours or the proceeds from one of your songs, as
Duran Duran (click here to read more about this)
has so graciously done. But do join us
help & heal through music. They attacked us all, please hear the call.
Thank you for your time & love to you all,
Eagles of Death Metal
