This is one hell of a powerful song!
These lines really moved me:
"She got that call again you know it’s happened twice
All his answers shot into a vein
Round here Dying’s just another part of life
But No No Not this way"
I think the last anti-drug song that moved me this much was John Prine's "Sam Stone".
This should be the theme song for an anti-opioid campaign.
This is a keeper for sure.
It is quite the compliment to have a John Prine reference in this review. Thanks, Tom ( back in my Chicago days I heard Prine do Sam Stone before he had a record deal. He remains a favorite)
