Steve Jobs Day: This Video Will Make You Cry

California Gov. Jerry Brown officially declared Sunday (10/16/2011) Steve Jobs Day in California, and Apple is holding an invitation-only memorial event for Steve Jobs at Stanford University. To commemorate Steve Jobs Day, I found a video I think he would have liked.

Of the dozens of memorial videos that honor Jobs, I thought this one was the most appropriate for the occasion, created by a musician who calls himself AzR. Here's how he describes the production of this profoundly moving work of art:

"I made this song using only sounds from Apple products and Steve's 2005 Stanford commencement speech. Every instrument, including drums, has been sampled from a Mac product, tuned by ear, and replayed in the context of the song."

If you take away nothing else from this day, just remember what I think is the most important quote ever said by Steve Jobs: "Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life."

Here's Steve Jobs delivering his memorable Stanford Commencement Speech in 2005:
