A GREAT BIG WORLD MS DAY

Today is World MS Day, an opportunity to raise awareness about the disease and the people living with it. With new song and video "Won't Stop Running," Black Magnetic/Epic's A Great Big World have provided a powerful, personal window into the issue that's resonating with gatekeepers.

In the clip, AGBW's Chad King, who was diagnosed with MS in 2007, addresses the camera directly as lyrics about his struggle appear onscreen. You can check out the clip below, and find out more in this story from CBS' Radio.com. King relates to Radio.com's Brian Ives that the song is a response to the dire prognosis he got from a doctor, which he has defied by pursuing his own regimen.

King and bandmate Ian Axel, who are currently hard at work on a stage musical, intend for the song to inspire not only people with MS but anyone facing challenges and forging their own path.
