The One

Well, if any video is going to move you to tears at your desk today, it might be this spectacular, poignant montage from Radiolab and NPR called "Words."

We don't want to ruin its magic with too much explanation, but we'll say it gets more and more rewarding with repeat views -- you'll understand why.

Even P. Diddy's a fan; how could it not be The One? Thanks, Molly!

Three possibilities:

The writer was on deadline and *really* desperate for a story.

The writer thought "this is not bad. It would be a real kick to know that I actually started a viral video!"

The writer is either sleeping with the person who made it or just paid them off with a *big* favor!

It was cute, clever, and slightly sentamental. All the comments here prove you can really kill something that's actually pretty good by over selling it.

Ridiculous to call this moving or great. It was a waste of my time to watch it and a big loss in AOL's credibility. It looked more like a commercial than a "real" and moving documentary. It had nothing unusual to say nor was it even made in an unusual way. It was edited very well, but so are most commercials we see. Why speak so well of something that was good, but NOT GREAT and not even nice to have watched, in the end.
