My Dad died recently. I know this song is about a friend thay died in a car crash, but some of the lyrics really resonate. I do wonder if my Dad, a lifelong musican and music lover, heard music as he died. I wonder if he heard it coming. If so, I hope he heard music he loved and that made him feel at peace.
Here I am again in Kansas City (sep23,2022) and I'm about to see TGA for the very first time, and I'm tearing up thinking about hearing this song and the closure it will bring to me as my mother is now dying from stage 4 stomach cancer. Thank You all for your kind words. EDIT: my mother passed away last Saturday morning (Nov 26 2022).
These video recordings of Brian n Chuck really had a profound effect on my life. They were really an integral part of who I am as a musician and as a human being.
What is your reason for saying that? Because I appreciate a great song for what it is? And that's exactly what I would think when you couldn't match up to me on certain things. You going to speak my 8 solid languages???? How many paintings and songs have you made this month? Neonun chinccha songsukhaji anha.....
Well, I wonder which song they're gonna play when we go. I hope it's something quiet and minor and peaceful and slow. When we float out into the ether, into the Everlasting Arms, I hope we don't hear Marley's chains we forged in life. 'Cause the chains I been hearing now for most of my life, The chains I been hearing now for most of my life. Did you hear the fifty-nine Sound coming through on grandmother's radio? Did you hear the rattling chains in the hospital walls? Did you hear the old gospel choir when they came to carry you over? Did you hear your favorite song one last time? And I wonder were you scared when the metal hit the glass? See, I was playing a show down the road When your spirit left your body. And they told me on the front lawn. I'm sorry I couldn't go, But I still know the song and the words and her name and the reasons. And I know 'cause we were kids and we used to hang I know 'cause we were kids and we used to hang Did you hear the fifty-nine sound coming through on grandmother's radio?

Omg.. if the person who wrote the song can get away with that, then I will no longer be embarrassed that I sound like a strangled cat when I do it.. Obviously it still sounds good.

Wish he would hit the notes that made the original so amazing, but still a decent version

The point is to make that connection when you perform. So hopefully, someone else can feel what you feel...
Jist a fckn song
WOOF. This is a great song but the singer is just awful.
He's a rock musician. His trademark is his raw raspy voice. Can't expect anything else really.
@Weezy Lmao you can reasonably expect a musician to actually hit a few notes. You, sir, are a wet napkin.
