    I was going to sing this at my sons wedding. Unfortunately, he passed away by suicide before that could happen. This is the first time since that night I have been able to listen to this song. Thank you. This warmed my heart. Not hearing it in it's original format made it closer.

      Sending immense amounts of love and positivity your way. May you find peace within yourself some day soon, and be able to sing your heart out to this song. I lost friends to suicide who I also connected with through music and it hurts for a long time to even hear the songs, but there is a fulfilling feeling once you can bear the weight and still sing it for them.

I was trying to mentor him and keep him off the d but I couldn't beat his family and trash friends that jist couldn't be happy bein a simple kind of man. It was less than a year after I touched down after 3 years in tdc. I gave him my favorite shirt about a month before he passed 3 days after my birthday and it was his favorite shirt so he was buried in it to simple man. I would rather be simple than a complex busy person that's never happy with the simple things in life. Rip Roy Moon. Love you lil bro.

    That was incredible. It kinda seemed like you hadn't heard the song in a while, remembered/figured it out on the spot, didn't play it note for note, and made it a little faster, but still nailed the feeling, and he just went right along with it without skipping a beat and changed the singing up to fit the style perfectly. Just pure talent, all the way around, on both ends.

    One of my daughters favorite songs to play and sing. One day we were about to get in the car when a guy stopped on his motorcycle wanting to buy something he saw we had. We talked and found out he played and sang also, so I ran in and got her guitar. She let him play this song and she sang the words while he added some background humming. It was really great. We had to go ahead and leave. He rode off smiling as much as we were. It was just one of those times people gather around music, sharing a moment, something spontaneous that only happens on its own.

    Man your ability to craft it so his voice can really shine with it was amazing. That dude has a beautifully soulful voice, I would love to see him really get comfortable and start belting out some emotion with it.

    They should do an album. When you do a long driving you need songs like this. His voice and his guitarr, pure magic together👍👍

    Song made me cry.
    I know the song all too well.
    This was simply beautiful….
    I’ve been struggling recently, lost my oldest and dearest friend two weeks ago, lost my mom 7 months ago.
    She used to always tell me to be a simple man…
    I needed to hear this today.
    I cried tears of joy and
    I thank you Momma for introducing me to this song so many years ago.

    We need this as a band right now. This is a great duo, I can see some great original tunes coming for this pairing.
