    Had this at my daughter Georgia’s funeral, used to play this to her in my belly and she would kick me so gently, I’m sure she knew it was her song. Such a beautiful song, sadly never thought the lyrics would now haunt me so beautifully. ‘other arms reach out to me, other eyes smile tenderly, still In peaceful dreams i see, a road leads back to you’ will treasure this song for always 👼🏻🤍

    Ray Charles would have turned 90 on September 23. 2020. That's why I've listened to almost all of his videos on RUclips and now I know why I became a jazz musician: I'm 78 years old. In the 50`s and 60`s there was a program on "Radio Luxemburg" between 7:00 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. in which mostly R&B with Ray Charles was played. I was totally electrified and never missed a program. I then learned the saxophone and double bass autodactically and later played with many well-known jazz musicians in Germany and Europe, so I can look back on a very fulfilled life with countless and unique experiences.
    Thank you Ray,
    You were my mentor and
    "BLACK LIVES BETTER"

    Makes me cry whenever I hear it. I had the privilege of standing next to Ray at his piano in 1965 when he played a concert at Northwestern University. This was in 1965, olden times, and the girl had to be back in their dorms by 11pm. Ray was several hour late. There were not many people left at the end. I walked down to his piano, didn't touch him but said "I love you man". The genius .... RAY CHARLES!

    It's sad knowing that Ray was once banned from doing shows in his home state of Georgia, because he refused to play segregated shows. This is his gift to the people that once shunned him, a gift returned to him when the Georgia State legislature decided to name his version of this song their official state song.

    This tune brings back a special memory and played a part in my deciding not to reenlist in the Navy. I was due to be discharged in less than a month and had just returned to the staging area after a week or so of long range recon. Someone had tuned the radio to Armed Forces radio and I heard the DJ say "This is for you Georgia boys" and I then heard Georgia On My Mind for the first time. It brought tears to my eyes and gave me a case of homesickness I couldn't shake.

      ​@@selfishcapitalist3523 as somebody who has lived and traveled through many parts of Georgia my whole life, I can say that Georgia is a purple state for sure. Atlanta and some of the other urban areas are very progressive, but the rural areas are FUCKED. literally less than a month ago I was riding through southern-ish macon and saw a huge confederate flag hung from a ~50 foot flag pole. the building that was flying it was a business that damn near looked abandoned it was in such bad shape, much like any house that waves that flag.
      but Atlanta is a bastion of progress in the swamp that is the deep south, and the sheer amount of people concentrated in the Atlanta area is enough to cancel out the cracker-ass rural areas

    i was honored to see ray Charles sing this song at an all-day concert at Yankee stadium, I believe in 1965. he was the headliner. Little Stevie wonder also performed that day. The 2nd best version I heard of this song, was about 10 years ago, Stevie Winwood did it with just his Hammond organ. awesome.
