We played this song at my uncles funeral. he died of throat cancer, he had such a terrible abusive and lonely life. When he was a young boy, he would work on local farms and would often recount stories to my mother (his sister). i think it was the only time in his life that he was ever truly happy.

when we were following the hurse, we drove through all these beautiful country lanes, the sun was shining and all the animals in the fields came to the gates - it was such a nice way to say good bye.

my mother picked this song for him. Everytime i hear it i think of him and it makes me cry


i hope u are ok in heaven Alan, we miss u dearly x
