    You are a very wise young man. "Be present" - all of your words, so true! Most don't come to that realization until much later than life. You have a beautiful life ahead!

    That is exactly what Jim meant, always on tour, recording, days going by and him missing time his little boy. You may be 21 years old, but you do have the right understanding and the feelings that will guide through life. Bless you, greetings from Porto, Portugal.

    We were all robbed of his massive talent,so sad. Listen to the other comments and pick anyone of the other songs they suggested because they are all great. You keep knocking it out of the ballpark! Great job!

    Jim Croce wrote this song when he knew that he would become a father, His son is a great musician too. A sad day when Jim Croce and Maury Muehleisen (who played the intricate guitar parts) died in a plane crash in late 1973.

    MDreeezy you are wise beyond your years. Be in the present!! For someone so young to understand that thought I really admire you . Jim has a funnier/happier side if you try songs like, "Car wash Blues", or ' Rapid Roy", you will get another side of Jim Croce. And don't forget his most popular song, " I Got A Name". Thank you again for appreciating this wonderful artist.

    So glad I found your channel. You really think deeply about the songs you're listening to; and you make the connection with what message the singer is trying to convey.
    P.S. Really appreciate that you don't feel the need to smoke, drink or curse during your reaction videos.

    Yes, another beautiful one. That one brings tears to my eyes every time. I hear what you're saying about time and that always makes me think about "Time" by Pink Floyd "You're young and life is long and there is time to kill today. And then one day you find ten years have got behind you. No one told you when to run. You missed the starting gun." Treasure each moment. Live each moment. PF and Jim said it differently, but it's the same message.

    This style of guitar picking is one of the hardest to learn. It is called “Travis Picking” where thumb plays on the beat and fingers play syncopated triplets.
    This one is far more difficult than most as it climbs note scales and changes directions on the triplets constantly.
    Similar to this in picking style are “Dust in the Wind” by Kansas and “Landslide” by Fleetwood Mac.
