Recording Artist Jon Bon Jovi has remade Ben E. King’s “Stand By Me,” with exiled Iranian Singer Andy Madadian. The video of the new track is being circulated online and features Richie Sambora on guitar, Don Was on bass, Patrick Leonard on keyboards, and Jeff Rothchild on drums.

According to Don Was, the track’s co-producer, the song is meant to be received as “a musical message of worldwide solidarity.” There are no plans to officially market the song in any way, but just to allow it to circulate online – and especially among Iranians—as a message of hope.
