[@michaelhove7950]

I had been wondering FOR YEARS, if anyone else could hear, what sounds like, Jimmy about to start crying. Or possibly stuffed up from already crying.... Anyway, I Never pointed it out to anyone before. Thanks for bringing it up

[@gabevalenzuela1356]

Michael Hove I love the song but it always makes me sad knowing it was written and recorded by the rev only 3 days before his passing. All his tracks are just the demo tracks that they decided to leave in, and what’s worse is that the song is about finding the way after he was gone, and it just reminds you about how important the people in your life are and how quickly they can be taken from you. He knew he was about to die, and this song was his final message to the world

[@OfficialTygo]

It doesnt just sound like it to me. I feel like its real. And you can hear that its real. Because any kind of music. And even what the Rev wrote was all about emotions. Not directly but you can hear it in the results. And if he sounds like hes about to cry while singing. I guess it means he put all of his life, energy, and emotions into it. Thats what makes real music.
