"Thanks to the power of music, Henry, an elderly Alzheimer's patient described by his doctors as \"inert, maybe depressed, unresponsive and almost unalive,\" is finally able to speak to his loved ones.\nHenry, who has been a resident at the Cobble Hill Health Center for 10 years, rapidly \"awakens\" when he hears songs that he has a strong emotional connection to from his life before the nursing home. \nHenry suddenly becomes responsive to questions, hums, sings and dances. In a very real sense, he has been brought back to life by the music. \nHenry's story is the focus of a viral YouTube video. The clip has received over 1,305,900 views in less than five days. \nThe clip is from a documentary called Alive Inside: The Story of Music and Memory, directed by Michael Rossato-Bennett and Jeff Pinilla. \nThumbnail image courtesy of Flickr, Elisabeth D'Orcy"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
