I am creating a short film. The film is going to portray just how connected we are to the rest of the world.

So I am looking for a song that assists in this. It needs to be pretty quick and upbeat as it needs to kind of grab the viewers attention. I would like it to talk about the world as a whole, society, or world peace. Something along those lines.

Any ideas?

No exactly what I was looking for.

This video was done by a group last year. Same assignment except we have to create value out of string. We will be using a world map and showing how connected our university is with the rest of the world. We will set up in the hall and have people put pins where they have friends or relatives connecting back to my university.

I Want to Make the World Turn Around (Steve Miller Band)

The lyrics should work GREAT for what you want, and the tempo/mood of the song is reasonably close to what was in the video you posted....

Well played, sir.

The first song I thought of was that Discovery Channel "I love the world" song (boom-de-ya-da), but I doubt that's what you want. ;)

Here are a few that I can think of:
*Beautiful World-Utada Hikaru
*I Don't Wanna Set the World On Fire-The Ink Spots (lolFallout3lolollol)
*Heal the World-Michael Jackson (why hasn't anyone said this yet?)

That's right. That's why I said U.S.A. != (is not equal to) World. I don't even know why you would suggest that song then.

How about this sap (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8jr9hPbYmBo)?

I don't know how old you are, but it used to be used in a Coca Cola commercial in the 70's.

Really? :confused:

I'd actually really be interested in seeing that short film though if you didn't mind.

We are given string and about one weak to create, define, and measure value. It is for a entrepreneurship class. Very similar to something done at stanford. We were finalists.

Good job! I liked the panning camera shots of the map that you did near the end. Nice message, too. Everyone's actions and even simple gestures can truly reverberate around the world.
