Hopefully you come back because it brings a level of peace to you. Its wildly talented but more importantly it musically seems to express (at least to me) a level of acceptance and peace, and wanting to show growth.....to whom one has become and who is proud of it. If you visit because you're struggling with an event, I would encourage you almost the same, view re-viewing this bit as a comfort....and hopefully one day will bring peace :)

I am so glad I was able to show my father this song before he died. He got diagnosed with cancer and after a lot of fighting he beat it but it came back and took him. However before all that, I showed him this song in hopes that in some way he would understand through the melodic tone and notes here-in that he would understand how I felt about him. He listened and I have no doubt he understood the love I felt for him. Thanks Andy, from the bottom of my heart, for helping me translate. And now that he is gone, this song carries more beauty than any other tune. Take care friend.

Almost 17 years ago this masterpiece was created. I was at my 7th grade to be precise, knew nothing about this "Maestro" and his compositions. Some decade later or so, this caught my ears and literally every single tab hit the core of my heart. From then on, whenever i re-listens to mckee's albums it brings out the emotions at par with my innocent days.

On my dad's last night, he was lying in pain in his hospital bed. I placed my headphone on his ears. On the playlist was Andy McKee then we saw his anguishing face suddenly calmed down. For about 30 minutes he listened to Andy's music then he shooked his head asking to take the headphone off. It was in the middle of this song when he stopped. This was the last song he heard. I can't find the words to continue this story but thank you for your song Andy.

See you on the other side. P.S- Thank you Andy for this masterpiece among other great pieces of work.

I really admire Andy McKee. Not just for the fact that he is the most beautiful guitar player ever, but for the way that he carries himself. He is a really down to earth guy and Even though he is an amazing guitar player and has gotten really popular over the years, he is as humble as anyone. I had the opportunity to see him play live and get a picture with him at namm. He has been and always will be one of my favorite musicians and a huge inspiration to me.

But for the better part of 2 decades, I’ve played him this song , and his reaction never disappoints. Every year, it’s like he’s hearing it for the first time. Thank you sharing this masterpiece.

There are so many great artist out there, Andy McKee is one of them. His songs are so diverse, that you may not like all of them, but I guarantee you will love some them. This type of music will never be showcased on TV or radio ( mainstream media ), because it is truth in musical form. It draws the emotion out of you, while the best mainstream has ever been able to do is once in a while play a song you can .......kinda...identify with. These songs don't need a name, they are Truth.

This is the epitome of music, this was the reason music was created... to express emotion. Andy has done exactly that and more! When you can dedicate something like this to your father and without a word ever even being sung he understands, that should stand a test for generations to come. I really hope this is what the future of music will hold! But most of all, it's a salute to you Andy! Thank you for making the greatest song and music I've ever heard!

The world is indeed the most puzzling of places - that anyone could take the time to actively give such a very clearly beautiful piece of music a thumbs down... I sometimes feel baffled by folk. Of course, those people could have pressed the wrong button in their frenzy of passionate gratitude... yeah that's what it is.

This inspires me to continue to practice, if only to write a song as grand as this for my own parents. This is truly a beautiful gift, as it comes from the heart and soul. It cost nothing, but it's as priceless as the world. It convays so much meaning without words. It is truly a masterpiece.

This song is absolutely, breathtakingly beautiful. Andy McKee is a genius par excellence, and his guitar skills and creativity sweep me of my feet every time. I find it incredible disappointing that there are some here who would notice his baldness, instead of the incomparable ingenuity he has brought to the world of music. There's okay music, then there's truthful music. There are mediocre people dissing others, and then there are unrivalled talents like andy who steal your heart.
