I'll be home
For Christmas
you can plan
On me
with plenty of snow
Mistletoe,
Presents wrapped 'round
The tree
ow
Christmas eve will tell me
Where the love light beams
Henry?
Yeah?
What was the favorite part of
Your life?
What was your favorite part
Of your life?
My life?
Well, part of my life
Was riding a bicycle,
Grocery boy...
what did you like about
Riding a bicycle?
That's where I made my money.
So, in some sense,
Henry has re-Acquired his
Identity for a while through the
Power of music.
What does music
Do to you?
Love, romance.
Figure right now, the world
Needs to come into music,
Singing.
Beautiful, oh, lovely.
And I feel a band of love,
Of dreams.
The lord came to me, made me
Holy.
I'm a holy man, so he gave
Me these sounds.
Let's say I meet you...
let me see...
Rosalie, won't you love me
Rosalie wont you be sweet
And kind
What do you
Think happened with Henry?
I mean, what did we just see
Happening with Henry?
We connected with Henry.
We connected with Henry's self.
You know, when you're in

Understand it.

You're not thinking about
Anything else, you're not
Struggling.
Oh, how lovely!
This is no small problem.
There are five million people
In America with dementia.
10 million people spend a large

There are maybe a million
People in nursing homes
Losing their
Connection to life.
Let me give you a kiss.
C'mon, sweetheart!
Mmm.
Dad!
Hello.
Hello!
Johnny?
Hey, Johnny!
How are you?
I mean, isn't this desire...
Person, to what they are,
To what they could be...
A deep part of being human?
A chance to affect the lives of
A million or more people?
I'm hoping people are ready to
Come along on this journey...
here you go..
You hold this.
There you go.
We all know music is magic.
I feel like I'm
One with the world.
And for those with dementia,
It can be a back door into
The mind.
The parts of the brain
Which are involved in
Remembering music and
Responding to music are
Not affected too much in
Alzheimer's disease or other
Dementias...
part of the reason why
Musical memories are
So strong has
Something to do with the way
