Damn. RIP. What a week.

This is really worth a listen. Pretty cool look at one of the best damn songs ever written.

What a fucking gut punch.

He just put out anew record.
By the time you drop them I'll be gone
And you'll be right where they fall the rest of your life

The best music poet and he went off with a grand recording. Welcome to the cosmos, Leonard, we'll miss you until we get there

DBT should do Hallelujah with Mike Cooley singing.

I think they could dig a little deeper. "Is This What You Wanted" would be my vote.

It's been done enough, for sure. But not like this--I can imagine layer upon layer of guitar until there is a wall of sound and Cooley singing in the same tone as when he sings "son come running, you better come quick..." Well, it sounds pretty darn good in my head.
