One day a long time ago, I was waiting in a subway station in Boston for the next train, and there was a street performer playing an electric keyboard in the station as well. A couple minutes after I got there, he started playing "Imagine". A group of students in the 16-18 age group arrived to wait for the subway, and they started singing the words to "Imagine", then more people started singing, until it seemed the whole population of the subway station was standing there singing and smiling and having a great time. Students, businessmen, older people....lots of different types of people. During the song, the subway arrived, and only a few people got on. The rest stayed to finish the song.
It was one of the most beautiful and surreal experiences I ever had.
