    I love Norm. And his death really hit me hard.
    He is my favourite comic.
    My older brother died out of the blue in february.
    30 years old.
    I am still devastated. I haven’t been able to listen to music for the past three months, and ymh have been a comfort.
    I’ve listened to this a bunch, the last couple of days. Thank you for sharing Wheeler.

    If you like this and other music I’d just like to shine light on The Jennings. Waylon has a grandson named struggle Jennings who has a remix of this in a rap form as a homage to his late grandfather. Taking a new glimpse of today’s outlaws and modernizing it. This songs chorus makes a feature in that song with this exact beat. I’d recommend it because anything the Jennings create are amazing and should be remembered. If you like jelly roll or yelawolf or anybody like that please check it out it’s a masterpiece.
