      This song is such a masterpiece. Twin Peaks is my all time favourite serie of all time. I'm almost 48 and it reminds me so much of my youth. Angelo was a truly amazing person and artist. So much talent and passion. Thank you so much 🙏 Rest in peace brother ❤️

    If there was ever a moment or a person or a music that best describe word 'talent', it is this music and this person then. It's really sad that musician of this calibre become popular so late. His gift for melodies and creating atmosphere is way above what popular music culture has to offer. Simply doing something following his own instinct and his own emotions without bothering about how music sounds today. He can feel the music. The music is not mathematic to him and it doesn't need to be complex or some artsy-fartsy crap to be beautiful, original and so deeply sad and emotional. It's ike offering completely new world and feelings to the listener. I can't listen and watch him playing piano without starting to cry. The music is out of this world and it also reminds me of my childhood when I was watching Twin Peaks 25 years ago. And those 2 albums he made for Julee Cruise are also like a dream. Such simple, yet effective and moving melodies are something that only small part of people on this planet are able to create.
    I'm really looking forward to new music for new Twin Peaks episodes.

      I am only 1/4 Sicilian, but my mom's dad was 100% Sicilian so a lot of my family growing up were all Sicilian like my aunts and uncles, grandpa and his mom, my great grandma
      I am very proud of my Sicilian heritage. So even though Angelo may have been born here, his entire family surrounding him if they were here would have all been Sicilian and Italian.
      Even people like me who are only 1/4 are proud when we hear about a famous or familiar person is Sicilian, whether they are from the island, moved here or are 1st, or 2nd or even 3rd generation Sicilian-American. We are all one giant family!
