    This song was/is a masterpiece of songwriting that never found it's proper due.

    3/31/2020 John lies in a hospital in critical condition tonight fighting the Covid 19 that visited John and his wife Fiona. If ever there was a time for Prayer ... Well, You know

    Sad, tearful days, balanced by the joy of reading all the loving posts about how John's music talked about the things that happen to ordinary people when they hear his music and stories. Heaven has great music today

    R.I.P. John - This was my favorite song of yours. Prophetic lyrics.

    A song that describes every modern day reality and malady. Behold the true reality this cover song reveals. I wish modern music had such a profound message. Instead we twerk and Nay Nay. God help us.

    This is one of John's songs that I hadn't heard. It clearly deserves much wider play. What a writer he was!

    I grew up on John's music. When I was about 11or 12, my parents and, my Aunt took me to the Woodstock Opera House and I got to see him live. Ill never forget that. I always love hearing the stories he tells. A true poet
