The fact that I had even one dislike to this comment disturbs me. You (whoever you are) don't give a shit about people who are dying? You sir/madam are the ultimate asshole.
I've been so pissed off today and found Robb Flynn's tribute to Debbie Abono...so I cracked open some beers and just listened to this song on a loop for a few hours...So sad when special people leave us..Your amazing Mr Flynn!!!..."so live for today cuz tomorrow never comes" Rest In Peace Debbie & RJD XX
2 days ago, I got a call from my mother, telling me one of my best friends, was involved in a double homicide... we met when we were 14 and forged our first band together that only lasted a summer due to us living a ways apart and going to different high schools, but every time we met up out of nowhere over the years it was like we never stopped talking. We always considered ourselves each other's twins because we were almost identical and our birthdays were two days apart, and we had both had a passion for music that we felt no one else could match.. I was thinking about him at work and this song came into my head even though I haven't heard it in forever, thank you Robb for this cover... RIP Blake, your were taken from us far too fucking soon, but you were and always will be, loved by so many, love you man I'll see you on the other side. To those of you who read this remember, live for today, cause tomorrow never comes.
perfect Mothers Day song!! lost my mom back in Sept of 2019... n i still cry when i hear this cuz this is for her thanx Robb... Love you brother n sorry for your loss as well.. see u in the states soon hopefully.........
This is extremely sweet of Robb. I miss Debbie so much, wish she were still here. Love how much of a tribute she received in the metal community. Love this!
I’ve seen this a few times now, it always reminds me just how fragile life really is, I’m always grateful for every passing moment I get to experience. Robb your a major influence on my life.
This man is a musical genius his lyrics always hit home for me.His guitar playing is possibly the best I've heard whether it be melodic to thrashy to just plain metal he always puts his heart out,we need more musicans like him. R.I.P. Debbie.
Rob you sir are a good man and an inspiration. if there were only more people in the world with your tallent and your soal. the world would be a better place. massive respect. RIP debbie.
i just cant stop listening to this... a good friend of mine passed away in April. he was 20... it's just the most beautiful, meaningful thing i have heard in so so many years...

i think that was so beautiful rob. I remember that day that you pulled your hair back because you didn't want to take that family picture. It seems like so long ago. God i miss her so much it hurts so bad.We had some great times as kids didn't we. Mom was always such a pain in the ass. i loved her so much.Thank you for being part of her life and of mine,g
This is beautiful Robb.. I'm touched. I really am. As mentioned, this is the best tribute that could've been made. RIP to both of them. And thank you for sharing.
I first stumbled upon this cover when my Mom passed from cancer 4 years ago. I think it is a beautiful tribute to anyone who has left this world prematurely. Thank you Robb
+Ian Gates I lost my mom to cancer in 2010. She fought for 3 years but in the end she did all she could. This is her tune from me nowadays. The other thing is that I met Rob back in 96 at a show in Sacramento and he was pure fucking cool. He isn't that much older than me but I've always looked up to him for being a great musician and good man. When I found this I felt his pain. It'll be there always.
That was hauntingly beautiful. Machine Head should definitely do a track similar to this if/when they record their next album. Sorry for your loss Robb
Wow this is so moving. Robb Flynn continues to prove why he's my hero. This is so unexpected of him but so incredibly well done. R.I.P. Debbie and Ronnie
Robb amazing tribute. Debbie Abone will be missed. I was fortunate to have known and worked with her and she was one of the nicest people I met in the music industry. :(
After watching this I was suprised that my already massive amount of respect for Robb Flynn has increased ten fold! I am extremely impressed and if any of you have any respect for real music then I don't see the need to explain!
Rob Flynn is the single greatest musician who ever lived, the man is my hero; my idle! but its all good being an amazing metal guitarist and singer, but rob flynn... this guy has raw talent, not alot of other musicians could pull this kind off stuff off, let alone do it and make it look so easy, and so full of fucking passion! i don't know debbie, but all my sorrows and respect goes out to the families and friends that she touched. And Rob, Thankyou for this fucking master piece.
All the Machine Head brothers and sisters are hurting with you Robb, and I'm sure all of us would be more than happy to be your crutch in times like these. Our deepest sympathies to your family and everyone who has been blessed by knowing her.
Yet another prove, that my favorite thing about Black Sabbath is... people covering them. I also really dislike acoustic covers of non-acoustic songs, but this one is... amazing.
Rob, I'm sure you are reading this! At least I hope so! All words here are not enough to represent how big you actually are! Not only because of MH... because of everything you are doing for metal, for music, for fans. Ah, I wanna tell you so much things... Keep doing your things man! We'll be here to love you and support you no matter what! You are a legend already! This video approves my words! You are huge man! Thank you for having you on this shitty miserable world! Love you!
yea dude i heard it on liquid metal too man sorry for the loss bro, i thorough enjoyed that interview btw glad to hear machine head is no where near done man one my favorite bands keep it metal!
I was actually related to Debbie Abono. She was a distant cousin of mine. That which we also share the same last name Abono. My father had actually told me about her after she had passed and how she was linked to the metal world which I though was awesome. Wish I could of got to meet her and hear her stories. RIP cousin.
Very good tribute. If I die once a Day, i'd like Darkness within and this Song. You stay Healty and be like you ever be. The Stars and Ideols will lifed in their Music forever. Sorry for my Englisj, Germab
I'm currently dying from cancer at 39. And if I could have one wish it would be for Flynn to play this acoustic cover when I pass.
The fact that I had even one dislike to this comment disturbs me. You (whoever you are) don't give a shit about people who are dying? You sir/madam are the ultimate asshole.

Robb, you're a great musician. Im impressed with this song.
Thanks for your wonderful metal. I cant wait for MH next album.
RIP Dio
Robb, you're always a class act bro...it's mainly why I wear your colors on my back.
Sorry for your loss bro...
I always knew that Robb is an excellent singer. Great cover, Debbie would've loved it.
Rob you sir are a good man and an inspiration. if there were only more people in the world with your tallent and your soal. the world would be a better place. massive respect. RIP debbie.

Strange how music can help you through rough times... This certainly helps me..
Thanks Robb
Lycrils -
Gather the wind
Though the wind won't help you fly at all
Your back's to the wall
Then chain the sun
And then it turns around and face you
As you run, you run, you run!
Behind a smile
There's danger and a promise to be told
You'll never get old
Life's fantasy
To be locked away and still to think you're free
We're free
We're free!
So live for today
´Cause Tomorrow never comes
Now you´re gone, Now you´re gone
Can't you see the writing in the air?
Now you´re gone nanna, Now you´re gone
Someone stopped the fair
Gather the wind
Though the wind won't help you fly at all
Your back's to the wall
Then chain the sun
And then it turns around and face you
As you run, you run, you run!
So live for today
Tomorrow never comes
Die young, young
Die young, die young
Die young, die young, young
Die young (x7)
I just want to say that I will always Love and admire Ronnie James DIO as well as DIMEBAG DARREL🎸.
🙌🤘🤘🤘🙏💫
Miss you 4ever guys🤟

I first stumbled upon this cover when my Mom passed from cancer 4 years ago. I think it is a beautiful tribute to anyone who has left this world prematurely. Thank you Robb
same buddy x
Sorry for your loss, I know how you feel.
+Ian Gates I lost my mom to cancer in 2010. She fought for 3 years but in the end she did all she could. This is her tune from me nowadays. The other thing is that I met Rob back in 96 at a show in Sacramento and he was pure fucking cool.

That was hauntingly beautiful. Machine Head should definitely do a track similar to this if/when they record their next album. Sorry for your loss Robb
amazing song robb, you are a legend to metal and music in general, well done dude
Wow this is so moving. Robb Flynn continues to prove why he's my hero. This is so unexpected of him but so incredibly well done. R.I.P. Debbie and Ronnie
A touching and deep song...can connect to it fully.Music is the best medicine brother,and you Robb is the best doctor!
I just found this. Loads of love and support from London. I love Machine Head, think you're a brilliant artist, and a very kind man.
P.
This is awesome. One of the many reasons why I look up to people like you. \m/ \m/

Beautiful version of an amazing song.
Right there with you. Beat it once, but at 45 now, this is the type of music that gives just a little bliss. Especially knowing the inevitable.
Rob Flynn is the single greatest musician who ever lived, the man is my hero; my idle! but its all good being an amazing metal guitarist and singer, but rob flynn... this guy has raw talent, not alot of other musicians could pull this kind off stuff off, let alone do it and make it look so easy, and so full of fucking passion! i don't know debbie, but all my sorrows and respect goes out to the families and friends that she touched. And Rob, Thankyou for this fucking master piece.
