Through music, entertainment and impact, the global live-cast will celebrate those who risk their own health to safeguard everyone else’s.”

We leave you with a song from Adam Lambert. Adam says he chose this song because he thought it was appropriate as these trying times’ strange and is something that none of us have experienced before, that it’s a very strange world right now. I didn’t catch his performance but he sang Mad World and he was awesome (as always)!
