ARTISTS:
Awesome Hero. Amazingly Human. Always Hopeful. These are some of the words that have been used to describe the incredulous Sparsh Shah, aka Purhythm: A 17-year old (at the time of the launch of this song) singer , songwriter, inspirational speaker, and award-winning 'ragarap' artist who despite his physical limitations has achieved remarkable accomplishments. He was born with brittle bone disease, otherwise known as 'osteogenesis imperfecta', and sustained nearly 40 fractures during his birth. To date, he has endured more than 140 fractures, but who's counting?!!
Sparsh's zest for life is palpable. The name "Sparsh" means 'touch' and that he does, to anyone who comes in his path. True to his name, his humble ambition is to inspire billions of people or in his words, he hopes to 'Sparsh the world'. Even at his young age, he has already performed for over a billion people. What may appear daunting to others, to Sparsh seems realistically attainable.
His appreciation for the life he has been given and his unwavering love for others comes through loud and clear in the new release, "Luv Today" - a collaboration with another multi-talented 17-year old musician; an opera singer and master violinist, Biana Pinchuk of South Florida.
A formidable duo for good, they partnered with multi-platinum Grammy Award-winning producer, Tony Dofat and songwriter, Sivia Dreyfuss, to express their positive message of hope and the power of kindness.
Sivia is CEO of Mission Possible Foundation (MPF), a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt charity in South Florida of which Sparsh and Biana are both youth ambassadors in support of MPF's youth addiction prevention initiatives.

Lyrics
In the spirit of the poet,
Maya Angelou,
Most people will forget
What you do
And what you say,
Hey – let’s be real
People remember
How you make them feel
So Do Unto Others
For short – DUO
Watch a billion acts
Begin to grow
Tomorrow’s unknown
And that’s okay
The past is gone
Just luv today
Nothing feels the same today
It’s like the world can’t bring me down
Got an angel watching over me
Seeing high above the ground
People doing kindness
Doing kindness
Random acts of kindness
Spreading luv each day
People doing kindness
Acts of kindness
Chain reaction
Like a kindness boomerang
Luv forever
Dance together
Make our world
Into something better
Music plays
Don’t be afraid
Embrace the present
It’s a gift
LUV TODAY
TODAY
IN EVERY WAY
ALWAYS
LUV TODAY
Hard to find my way some days
Need a bright light to be guiding
Might get low when the skies turn gray
Got to practice to keep gliding
It’s alright
It’s alright
I can rise
To new heights
Just like flowers grow
And rivers flow
There is one thing
That I know
Luv forever
Dance together
Make our world
Into something better
Music plays
Don’t be afraid
Embrace the present
It’s a gift
LUV TODAY
TODAY
IN EVERY WAY
ALWAYS
LUV TODAY
So many lives snuffed out by hate
’S impossible to contemplate
Its meaning will only keep us guessing
May their memories be for blessing
Every day’s a gift
So I’m Blessed n Grateful
Life’s just a test
Who wins? Only a handful
So what we gonna do
In our short time
Do Unto Others
It’s a state of mind
So come join the kind side
You’ll never regret it
We are the light of the world
Reflect it
No dreamer’s too small
No dream is too big
Be amazingly human
Always hope – ya dig
For hope is a chariot
Powered by hugs
Luv’s unconditional
No matter what
So give a HUG
And Help Us Give
Cuz in the end
Luv always wins
Luv forever
Dance together
Make our world
Into something better
Music plays
Don’t be afraid
Embrace the present
It’s a gift
LUV TODAY
TODAY
IN EVERY WAY
ALWAYS
LUV TODAY
