    I'd just had a fight with my Dad that night and went to sleep listen to that song. I'd went to work as usual the next morning, about 10: 00 am I'd got a call from sister telling me dad had died. I was in shock, but my workmates helped me out. It's 30years since then, but l never forgotten about my Dad or that song. So people don't take the people that you love for granted.

    I lost my Grandma 31 years ago and this song played on the radio just after I got word. The eery part of this video is that her last name is Phillips. Take a look at the name of the seafood restaurant behind the performer. This has happened many times with this song.
