I was touched by the comment about a channel for interviewing the elderly... As a retired Paramedic, there were so many opportunities to sit and listen to stories from the greatest Generation while en-route from one hospital to another, or from their home to a hospital.... Simple questions can lead to extended tales, and many of those tales are no longer with us.... What a Beautiful idea.... but be ready, many of them have a lifetime of stories to share....

You hit the nail on the head when you were talking about the older generation. I guess we just want you all to see what we've seen and be touched by what touched us that may be hidden with the passage of time. Our children and grandchildren are kind and loving but have other things to accomplish. They try to stay attentive to us but they have their own lives. These reaction channels that I follow have done me so much good. Just to watch you all react to music and other things that shaped a generation. Thank you

Sometimes tears show that we are still alive. I'm in my 70's, retired. When I was young, my Grandpa had a new scientific trinket to teach us all about science every time we visited. He had grape arbors and an oasis of trees around his house in the desert. He taught me to spin a top. That top, with it's string still wound, sits on my mantle today. It sits beside my uncle's pocketknife that he gave me on my 8th birthday. My Grandma had died before I was born. He lived a simple life alone with his scientific magazines. He died when I was in college. I cried, I stood at the window and just looked out. It was mostly my loss of someone who could listen and offer advice. This song just rips at my heart. It's OK to cry.

Loved meeting you. I’m a 68 old country woman raised in Mississippi. And I was really excited about the old folk interviews. I have Recently met an old 92 year old man that walkes all bent over and I sat down with him and he was a WWII vet then he had worked with NASA. And was on the work with John Glen. So much history that who would have ever thought of someone in bowtown South Georgia. And at 68 being a farm woman. I can tell you all about farming to skydiving - baling hay - motorcycle rides speeds up to 153 - semi truck driving - wielding -but don’t ask about dressing up -my dressing up was Rodeo style - not going to proms- but bull riding in the back plaster on Sunday afternoons - knowing I was gonna get in trouble with my dad. But the excitement of riding bulls with my brothers was worth the belting from Daddy.

I understand how she feels. I lost my grandpa back in 2007. We were with him at the very end. He was a World War II veteran, and as she said, the best man I've ever known. He would tell us all these stories, some of them it seemed like 200 times, but I'd give a lot to hear him tell them all again. I was a friend to quite a few old timers, if you'll pardon the expression. Hard working, old roughneck people. They were good and I learned a lot. They became family to me. The last one of them left in 2022, and it still breaks me up to think about it. Cherish it while you got it, because it goes by way too damn fast. It doesn't matter how many years you have with them, it'll never seem like enough.

I really didnt understand at the time but as a grew older it was simply because I stopped to talk to him as he must have just loved that I acknowledged him.

This song is still hard to get through. My son had a couple of older guys down the street that he befriended. They were brothers. They were so good to him, and they were good, solid male influences . He'd go there to watch westerns or walk their dog when his sisters drove him nuts. One has passed, and I know that since my son is grown, he and the remaining brother aren't as close. This song reminds me of them and how much they meant to our whole family. It's bittersweet.
