  • There is a long story to this one, but in a few words , this was requested by Mike who is seriously ill and was about to have an operation that had a good chance of not making it through, he sent me an extremely weak voicemail after because he had to let me know that he made it, so i sent him this , his wife messaged me to say thank you as it has made his day, i can only hope now that he starts to beat this illness.

    Dear Frank,
    I've been listening to you for sometime now and I find myself here daily listening to you while fighting my demons. Listening to you really changes my mood and gives me hope in life. I've been trying to find the right form of expression to how your music feels to me but i don't know if this is gonna make sense so here you go.
    It's like a grandad feeling telling his grandson that don't worry, life is gonna be okay. It's a feeling when everything is coming down in a single go but you're here telling us not to worry. Its a feeling where I feel like I have just had a deep and meaningful conversation with you on how to get back on track and you have shared with me your experience with life and its ups and downs. And most importantly, it feels like I've known you my entire life and while I come across many people in life, I can still open up to you and tell you my struggles.
    I'm not sure if what I say makes sense but I feel like i am struggling with life and my mental setbacks while here you are comforting me. I always find myself back here especially on a bad day. And this is the therapy that I always needed.
    It's your emotions and the way you express when singing. It gives me nostalgia of all the good memories from the past, the sadness of the lately and a hopeful future to look forward to.
    I can't believe I am actually saying this but you just being you on TH-cam is therapeutic for me.
    Thank you sir for this!

The day ended with me sitting in an empty house crying and contemplating joining her. That day replays in my head every day, the most loneliest day of my life. Thank you brother, that version made me feel the pain in the lyrics. You sir are and treasure.
