rest in peace. this is not a surprise. this is deeply sad. tragic. her raw, natural talent. her obvious struggles. the first time i heard her voice - i felt it. a damn fine soul. her music is - soulful. i craved that feeling for days, week, months. it flooded my life in the best way. i was grateful that she was willing to share what lived in her core. that’s where she sang from. down deep. she got in there. talent doesn’t mean happiness or wellness. unfortunately. i wish i understood. i wish i had more words for so many sad things happening in the world. i will wish for surge of happiness, soon. collectively, we could use a boost. perspective.
I remember the first time I heard this song, Europe ‘08. Ah, memories.
