Alabama3 - Too sick to pray

[@stevencarrigan7768]

I lost my good friend Francis this year. He introduced me to this band in the nineties and was their biggest fan. He even managed to blag his way on stage in Glasgow when one of the singers spotted him dancing with a horses head on and invited him up. My life is better for knowing Francis and Alabama 3.

[@outatisater7943]

+Steven Carrigan So did you pray? For your good friend..

[@Mazarbull420]

+outatis ater OMG dude... he was just commenting on how this song touches him deeply for his friend. I'm sure you pushing your religious ideology on people wasn't what he intended his comment to do. If he wanted to or did pray for his friend it's none of your business. Maybe you should take a second and realize not everyone subscribes to your ideas. That doesn't make them any less of a good person nor does it mean they mourn any less for their friend. But your passive aggressive bullshit is not helpful to anyone. A good Christian would have just said something like "I'm sorry for your loss and my prayers are with him." At no point in time should a "good" Christian try to make someone feel like less of a person.

[@outatisater7943]

Ryan Hulse I just made a question, i didn't get any answer. The only reason i made this question was in order to understand if his comment is meaningfull or meaningless. An answer in this question would determine that.

[@Mazarbull420]

So you try to guilt them into saying something?! Why can't someone just share a memory that a song brings up? Why does that mean they have to bow to your ideas to prove something meaningful? I lost my parents at a young age and if you had asked me that I would have blocked you and told you to push your agenda on small weak minded people such as yourself. Strong minded individuals don't have to bow to a fictional character.

[@outatisater7943]

Ryan Hulse I am not trying to guilt anyone, how could i? Neither i am asking someone to bow to any ideas. I just try to understand if there is any meaning in the comment of that guy. But you are the one who tries to make other people bow to your ideas by indicating God is a "fictional character". You are doing exactly what you convict. The irony is stunning. I have just one question. If instead of your parents you are the one who dies and your parents keep living, then would you like your parents not to pray in order God to rest your soul? Would you like to neglect you like this? Prayer does help, even if someone is in hell but you pray for him then he finds peace for the moment you pray. So, don't forget the deads and pray for them. Now i push you my ideas but you asked for it.

I met my partner & mother of our daughter grooving to Alabama 3 at Beautiful days fest in 2008.......so we have a very special love for them. Still sad about the premature departure of Jake (AKA Rev D. Wayne Love).....in another time,in another place, I dream of getting stoned & grooving to some sweet techno country music sounds of the mighty A3 again.

Incredible song, incredible band, the fusion of country & electronica is sublime….🎶👏✅❤️

[@divinefallfromgrace]

I saw these legendary raikers in Belfast a few years back; I yelled for this song, and The Rev D. Wayne answered, with a smirk, "Naw, we ain't gonna play that". Then of course they did. I'll miss ya Rev.

[@MrFrankstanks]

the wildest of the wild word up

[@matthewbarker9134]

About 15 yrs ago, I was at a gig and D.Wayne went to the front of the stage to lay on hands. I reached out, but he stopped at the person next to me and went back to the mic. I felt snubbed. A few years later I'm at another gig, and he's asking what they should play next. I yelled "Bulletproof", and he looks right at me and says, "uh, no I'm not." Good lad, we're even now.

[@whiskeyweeniesENT]

Am 105 years old and this song still slaps!

[@davenicholson9003]

Rest in peace Mr d Wayne ..we are all gonna miss you ...a true musician ...peace in the valley ...XX

[@westwood1]

Oh Christ... RIP DWayne

[@alanmatthews107]

I have seen a lot of bands in my life time.. led Zeppelin right at the top .. Alabama 3 I have seen 3 times in Devon.... A truly incredible band ... musically intellectual , spiritual, perceptive .. and just a great joy to watch live .

[@loureed3015]

Am with u ,ala the way...

[@declanmagee58]

Genius music. We used to listen to it on the way home from Kulu in Bradford in the glory days.

[@kayeshmeya]

Heard this song for the first time on the Gone in 60 Seconds soundtrack and I LOVE LOVE LOVE this song!! There's just something about its attitude and lyrics that is just SO ME!

[@leslieivey9781]

Cool as hell

[@cree1121]

I just discovered this band and they are awesome!

[@crazycatlady80]

I've seen these live twice and they are fooking amaze balls! !!!

[@Moonlight-oh7sm]

Being Human was amazing. Mitchell, Annie and George were such a nice group of friends.

[@danthebeachman]

I have not found one number these guys do that I have not liked.....They are definitely true artists....Again...the Power of Music!!

[@Lemongalaxyy]

I work with special educations kids one-on-one. I have a kid who has a very hard time communicating and focusing, but will ask for this song every day to help him do his homework. It's his favorite song, which tickles me, as he's so young. This song helps him to use his words and communicate. When he wants "too good to pray yes play?", we play this song! 😂

[@EvieSparkles]

One of my all time Alabama 3 songs - love these guys!

[@alexandretemplar4893]

being human make me come here and i stay for this beautiful song

[@rooforbee8621]

You have to appreciate the talent to touch the human condition. Like everything, suns and sunflowers, it is always temporary, and liable to time's erasure.

[@adamdickson1404]

What can you say? An ode to defiance at the end of the line, to whatever god you once believed in, to the last speck of sunlight vanished and gone forever. Then you hear this song and something happens. You're still there, still breathing. A thin smile begins to form. Maybe. Just maybe ......

[@SirParcifal]

you're never too sick to pray!

[@daveblock8695]

Got turned on a couple years ago. Live in Colorado, USA, spent years folowing The Dead till Jerry died. To cut this short though...A3 are incredable.

[@suzannesisco3647]

love the band. i want more

[@SiobhanFirefly]

I used to perform fire at the Brixton Jamm, and met all these guys. Had no idea who they were the other than a band. Over the years they invited me into their studio with the wizard to listen to their album they were putting together. One night I got so drunk with them I got alcohol poisoning, and everyone told me that I had been officially Alabama 3'd. I had some great times with these guys. Jake will be sorely missed. Rest in Peace.

[@tenks7341]

[@cagedave1]

Weird.. I'm a big Alabama 3 fan.. and I've just finished reading the Dark Tower series (second read through) . For some reason I've had this song on my mind for the last couple of days since finishing. Glad I'm not the only one making a link.
