My wife of over 17 years died in my arms 3 months ago. This song made my tears flow, because now I know that death really cannot be proud. Even more powerful was the realisation that I now KNOW love truly is the only thing that matters in the end. Love may be just a 4 letter word, but it truly transcends physical limitations, and is the thruster that makes your soul sour! Thank you Janis for this unbelievably powerful song.
So happy for finding this beautiful song! We played it at my mothers funeral more than a decade ago, and for a long time I’ve looked for it. It’s now on my list of music to play when it’s my turn.
Janis Ian is awsome I'll love her forever & always listen to her music I was very young when introduced to her music by my long lost Mother Arlene Francis Cooney in 2002 she was my best friend not a day goes by I don't miss her.Love Yah Janis beautiful talent!
Chris: I was taken aback to see your comment! Thank you for sharing the song and I am grateful to all of you for your codolences. It really touched my heart. Blessings to all of you!! BTW I guess you've all figured out I meant to write "soar"....and not..."sour".
Ethereal in every way, beautiful! 🙌❤️🙏🌅

Commenting from 2021.
I really enjoy these simple songs. Two to three instruments and a voice. Really the best way to relax in our current time.
The amazing Janis Ian shares her tears,her words and voice are amazing!
What a lovely song, her voice hasnt changed in years.
