Got to cruise the mountains yesterday with my dad who is fighting cancer at 63.. this has always been one of his favorite songs and bands. I was almost in tears getting to sing it with him one more time for sure.

sorry for your fight and pain,i lost my mom for cancer and she really loved bad company

[@FAngus-ly8lk]

I was 63 last year when I was diagnosed with cancer. Fortunately it was non-invasive, the surgery was successful, I have had no recurrence or spread of malignancy, my treatment has been straightforward and bearable, and my prognosis is good. Be assured that your Dad deeply appreciates you and any siblings you may have, and considers himself deeply lucky to have created another generation to follow him. You are his legacy. I have no kids myself, and I'm fine with it. My choice. I've had a big wakeup call going forward. In an odd kind of way, I'm grateful for it. Cancer is a bitch, but it's pervasive and to some degree inevitable. 40% or more of us will get some form of it. The only answer to this fact is to live mindfully, kindly, realistically and proactively. Avoid what limits your understanding and wastes your time, and LIVE. Best of luck to you.

I’ve seen, heard, lived, the greatest music of all time. I was born and lived in a simpler age. One that has became more complex by the day, then the hour, now by the second.

[@beentheredonethat4257]

@@tcbrison6592 I would really like to do that. When I was a teenager I had this recurring dream, dozens of times, of being old. Long gray hair and beard. Each dream was exactly the same. I was sitting in an old cane back rocking chair, on a shaded, field stone & concrete front porch, enjoying an amazingly cool breeze, smoking blunts, drinking beer, and telling old stories to the neighborhood kids. But, it was just a dream. Kids now don’t want to hear from old people. (Truth being told, I’m not sure they ever really have). My heart aches for the kids and young adults of the modern western world today. They have no imagination. Theirs is given to them, thrown at them, by everyone else through tv, electronic games, the internet, society, and all their “smart” devices. Their “experiences” and “life lessons” aren’t their own. They’ll never know what it’s really like to experience the amazing smell and taste of honeysuckle deep in the woods. Building forts and treehouses. How to catch fish in a small stream using paper clip hooks, cotton string, and bread for bait. Snapping green beans, shelling peas, itching like crazy after picking corn and okra. Having a “pet” cow. Flying June-bugs on a string, or filling a mason jar with lightening bugs. How awesome a piece of Wrigley’s spearmint gum tastes just to be quiet & still in church. How great just churned peach ice cream is even when it feels like your arm may fall off. The pain of the first blisters of the summer on bare feet, and then again a few months later when trying to put on & wear shoes when school starts back. In-neighborhood, or vs another neighborhood football & baseball games. Kick the can until dark-thirty and the Mom calls to come home uses both first & middle names. These memories and thousands of others filled, and were, my childhood, and will be unknown to current and future generations. Maybe when, or if, I get a few years older my “story telling” dream will come true.

When i was diagnosed with cancer hearing the doctor tell me what the course of action would be and what i would have to indure made me realize just how short life can be. This song comes to mind everytime i think about that day.

[@tierone4761]

Hello, how are you doing now with that diagnosis? I myself just went through surgery as a result of that as well. No history of that in my family at all but yet here it is. But I’m content that it was me and not anyone else in my family. In the last couple years I’ve lost two lady friends that were very special to me as a result of that shyt. It certainly does not discriminate who it attacks. Good Day to You.

This song is the punchline for so many rockers who blew it: Jimi, Janis, Brian, Jim M., and so on. Fame can be so fleeting, and fame is the great imposter, a seductive mistress that can lead one to destruction. Very few celebs keep it real and humble.

Beautiful song written by Paul Rodgers as a tribute to Paul Kossoff,lead guitarist for the band Free and one of the best rock guitarists ever.

[@23Skadoosh]

This song was not written about Paul, although I'm sure his life was a factor in the writing of it. The song was influenced by the deaths of young stars such as Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin, and Jim Morrison, among others, who died young due to their addictions.

[@gary4507]
