The L.A. Dime

Our friend Greg is a pretty amazing guy. He’s a musician who wrote many of the current drum cadences for the Notre Dame Marching Band when he was a Domer back in the day (a lot of which are used in Rudy), he owned his own very successful record label for many years and has put out a bunch of albums of his own, he was a stand up comedian, a marathoner, and has screenwriting degrees from both USC and UCLA. He’s been working mostly in Shanghai of late, writing and producing a popular childrens’ program.
On a whim, he decided to write and produce a song about the Olympics (in English). It’s really taken off in China, and some big name American singers are considering singing a version of it for radio play here. You can watch a making-of video on YouTube — it’s called One World, One Dream. I think it’s a fantastically fun, uplifting song. If you like it, you can buy a copy for 99 cents, with a portion of the proceeds going to earthquake relief in China. Well done, Greg!
