Death's Love Song - Reina del Cid

[@kc8hyg]

The average lifespan of an american male is 78 and I just turned 79.me and death are both smiling listening to your song. Thanks

[@thaifold]

I just feel the same. Én is ugyanígy vagyok vele. Even Im "just" 58. O.o`

[@marvindoolin1340]

It surprises me every time I think of it, but I guess I have just a bit over a year left! Of course, there's no guarantee I'll last even that long. Much love to you, RdC.

[@defaultuser1447]

I'll have to quibble there. The life expectancy from birth includes all the infant/child mortality and young recklessness that you're past. The life expectancy at your age is about ten more years.

[@freesk8]

I'd give ya till about 86. Ya ain't dead yet, man! :)

[@89tin]

Hey fella, im coming back here in a year and check in with you. Find out how you are doing, See you then, have a great year

[@jefferypadgett334]

"My face is cruel, but my love is true, and I won't rest till I have you" Death's love song indeed! Clever idea, great words.

[@leslieseabury4138]

I've listened to so much crap in my 71 years, from so called artists with zero talent, it's a pleasure to have bumped into this video where a young lady musician has entertained me with a lovely voice and an original and well written song. Good luck in the future girl, you deserve to go a long way.

[@chrisdickerman3084]

At 71 that songs speaks to me. It is awesome but what is more awesome is that someone your age could write it

[@tank625]

I needed to hear this. I just lost my wife to cancer a few weeks ago. I think it was meant for me to find this song now. Thank you.

[@andrewfleet2010]

This is the most beautiful song yet.

[@juggrnaut2262]

There goes Reina making even death sound sweet. So talented. 👏👏👏

[@pavelkratochvila6157]

The lovely Reina´s singing even in death song, like.

[@mayflowerlash11]

For many death is a terrifying subject. But for some of us, including Reina, accepting our mortality gives us the ability to enjoy to the max the time that we do have. This is a beautiful and liberating song.

[@tsherbs1309]

"Because I could not stop for Death He kindly stopped for me..." Lovely song!

[@dennymike5891]

Never thought of love that way. Thinking no one but you has either!

I like this song from the first chords. Thank You Reina.

[@jackmiller4946]

Wow, that’s a top shelf song. More people need to start paying attention to Reina.

I know but somehow “their” giving us Billie Eilish.

[@russgaulin3721]

Yes Reina, this one should be heard. By multitudes.

[@KevCooperman]

Exactly what Jack said :)

"You never get out of this world alive" -- Hank Williams

[@tcanfield]

Brilliant of you to go “there”, where most songwriters fear to tread. Reminds me a little of how St Francis called it Sister Death at the end of his life; and Bob Dylan wrote “It’s doom alone that counts”. I had a serious brush with possible death myself at age 25 when a Greyhound bus flew off a cliff but luckily landed perfectly in the river below only because heavy rainstorms had just raised the water level high. We have to be ready at any age.

[@jonnyleeg4058]

That's a solid platinum song. I'm not even kidding

[@GrafStorm]

I agree, this ranks up with some of the better Bob Dylan or Neil Young songs.

[@t5o7m]

... I've been dying to hear you write and perform that song ... :)

[@tobortine]

Lyrics with the story telling skill of Tom Waites, the musical composition of Randy Newman and the folk feel of Dylan. Your talent is amazing. Happy Sunday from London UK.

Didn't expect to like this but this needs to be heard by a massive audience.

[@dennisblass]

Only an artist can come up with a song like that.

[@walkertonheights]

Your made it all the way through and not a single tear, that I could see. Very nice poetry.

I look outside the window.. still snowing here... end of March.. perfect song for it😊 greetings from Austria!

I don't know if you will ever read this but thank you so much for writing such a beautiful love song from / to Death.

[@joesolo9946]

Creativity and talent are shining bright today... Nice!!

[@RodneyLey]

Just when you think you’ve heard some of Reina’s best work she comes up with this! So excellent.

[@donnalynnP]

REMARKABLE! “Mmmm, mmmmmmm-ooooo,oooooo, ooooooo” PURE SOUL - THANK YOU! I neverrrr get sick of listening to this ! Your vocal tone and depth of feeling - lyrics, melody/ harmony! Award winning!🥇🏆very powerful! A favorite song of all time for me! 🕊🕊

[@brayanvazquez9136]

Holy s word!. I’m glad I found you!! Make more!

[@ldoyle3rd]

I guess the best compliment I could give is this 60 year who is accused of being stuck in the 70's sent a link of this video to his 20 year old daughter to show that I do enjoy new artists from time to time

[@patrickmehr3219]

This is one of the craziest concepts i’ve ever heard and you just absolutely killed it

[@JustinCase99999]

I'm getting old now, over 60, and feeling tired and aching and such, lacking energy too, health isn't what it used to be - and death has just been singing to me in the disguise of a young talented woman. I know it's you, death. I got the message.

[@JulieStJohn-jb4cy]

I just turned 64 and I’m right there with you, looking forward to zooming thru the universe and at the same time never wanting to leave earth. Then I hear this song and everything is OK. Wow, and now I’m crying. I’m gonna listen again. 😢

[@АндрейХардиков-й5с]

They who probably have think-tanks with ears and eyes and who attempt looking ahead, at least a bit more times than never, they got the message. Yeah... The only trifle here, in a manner of speaking, that one may fancy at this point can be a capability to comprehend the message up to the hilt and try to live on as if no one got it right. For some more minutes, days, years and so on... Untill the "end", right? Cheers, folks beyong the Ocean! Why worry now? You dear North Americans sometimes seem to be a little bit too serious at things like listening to a nice song amazingly performed by a nice lady with such brilliant name of a Queen or a Ruler of Old, and containing a certain concept, even if it concerns such deep things like that one.... As they samurais say, things of great concern should be treated lightly...

[@dennisgriffin1874]

Bravo, Bravo, the Real awakening & enlightenment comes not from our minuscule time on Earth, but rather what lies beyond this momentary physical experience. Enjoy and fulfill your life here to the fullest, yes, but also embrace Death not as something to be feared, but rather as a welcoming Angel whose been sent to guide you through the transition from the restrictive limitations of this earthly experience, to an unimaginable transformation of pure Love and Energy. Your song is spot on Reina de Cid, spot on. Thank you sweetie.

After enjoying many of Reina's and Toni's Sunday morning covers, I discovered today , reading her Patreon page, that Reina is a composer too - and what a composer! She was able to take that well-known poem by Emily Dickinson as an inspiration and write a jewel of a song of her own. An unpretentious melody that highlights some elaborate lyrics, with very original ideas. Hats off, Reina, keep on rocking!

[@jamesceastep8874]

Reina: This song is lovely for its melody, it's wonderful prose, and the sweet heart that crafted it. I lost a life partner just over a year ago, and accepting the end of such a gentle, wise, and loving woman has been difficult, because of her belief there is no afterlife. Your view has left room for a nonreligious perspective, and created a gentle path to a life's end that was not smooth from cancer. Forever a fan of yours for Dorothy. - Jim
