Who likes the band Tool? My husband does. We ran across a bunch of kids that redid one of their sons. It's so amazing. The lead singer has an amazing voice.
The students for all their hard work: Curtis / Drums, AJ / Bass, Olivia / Piano, Kala / Vocals, Jacob / Guitar, Chris / Guitar, Geoffrey / Claves, Kane / Bongos, Jack / Djembe
They are from the O'Keefe Music Foundation. It's a nonprofit that helps children to record their musical performances for free.

Tool, for writing an incredible song!

No More Tears By Ozzy.
It's amazing what you can do with talent when you work with kids. It saddens me that art and music are being pulled from schools.

If I hadn't come by to read your post, I wouldn't have known it was Saturday. That's what retirement does to you.
My son's elementary school has music and he loves it. My daughter's high school has band (no strings) but not music.
I'm glad we still have music and art here. Actually, the high schools in our district are all for specialties. My daughter's high school has a focus on the "Arts"- music, theater, and art. It's where she learned and loved to play guitar. (The other high schools focus on different things like Trade Skills, Sciences, Physical Well Being and such).
Music hasn't been pulled from our schools yet and I hope we are not affected by it. It makes me sad, too.
