Interesting that you point out that part of the lyric.

A friend of mine passed away a couple of months ago.  In her last days she turned this song into a personal hymn to God.  The lyrics fit perfectly for our relationship to God!

I didn't think of that but yeah, it can cross over...

May she rest in peace.

I think it's funny how they have a picture of Fred Durst from Limp Bizkit on here, because I'm also active on a Limp Bizkit forum, but that's the only other one. I grew up listening to them, and met them when I was 15.

Thank you, kit.  She was a very sweet lady with a gentle spirit.  She died of lung cancer...... never was a smoker!

But I cannot get that song out of my mind now!!  I am quite sure that she is resting in blessed peace!   :biggrin:

Nice song, kit.  I have never heard them before.  Are they a favorite of yours?

They had a unique sound, I had all their cassette tapes.
I think they were mostly a West Coast group. I could be wrong.

A lot of East Coast influences here. Their big hit was "Don't Fear the Reaper." Here's a link to the group's line-up over the years.

Uh-huh, but I like practically all forms of non-commercial stuff.

Canadian guitarist sensation Jesse Cook, and a medley from the excellent "Rumba Foundation" album....

Great one, RCM.  I haven't listened to them or Limp Bizkit in awhile.

You might like these guys... sorta the 'Detroit Chili's':

WEMU-FM at Eastern Michigan University fired this guy for refusing to run NPR newscasts during his VERY conservative hard rock show, the Bone Conduction Music Show. Thayrone X is now in his 50s or so and performs with his group The Witch Doctors throughout the metro Detroit/Ann Arbor corridor. He's the real deal, and a Cruz supporter as well.

Excellent tune.  I've heard of the Bone Conduction show but not Thayrone, unless the name slipped by me.  A lot of the 60's/70's Detroit rock-acts followed Nugent & Mark Farner's (Grand Funk Railroad) lead and simply adopted conservative leanings.

Hell, I thought that very thing when Iggy Pop showed up as an alien on a Star Trek show.  :lol:

My wife and I both listened to him until WEMU caved in to NPR and canned him rather than try to work out a compromise. (So much for "locally funded stations.") Thayrone did put out a CD of a typical show, and a bonus disk with a few of his more modern tunes like "I Ain't Got No Job!" but neither Amazon or Youtube appears to have them.

I think it's only happened twice...  a fave radio-station inexplicably changes its format.  That's unforgivable. 

Somebody has the master-tapes.  You gotta keep goin' back and back to youtube, at least.  Tunes will eventually reappear if the copyrights are cleared.
