    I have only recently discovered Songs: Ohia. I can't quite comprehend that Jason Molina is no longer with us. Because he is. I listened to this song over and over and over before I knew he died. But surely that means a soul and spirit is alive in some way if they keep going and keep making an impact on people? What a wonderful artist.
