Background
    At age 14, Sobiech was diagnosed with osteosarcoma, a bone cancer which mostly strikes children. In May 2012, Sobiech’s doctors informed him that he had up to a year to live. Sobiech recorded the song “Clouds” about his battle with cancer.

This video of artists was assembled by Rainn Wilson, and directed by Justin Baldoni who had also directed a short documentary about Sobiech, titled My Last Days. At the end of the video, Jason Mraz is shown saying, “Thank you Zach. You’ve written a great song, dude. It’s a real pleasure to sing it, and sing it with you. Thank you.”
