This is very touching. I like how it opens musically...and leads us into the story. Repeating the hook in the chorus like you do really adds a lot emotionally.
Enjoyed the harmonies...the singing is very heartfelt. You’ve really captured the emotion of this story.

Wow...this is so poignantly beautiful! When someone passes away doing something for the pure love of it, though it's a dangerous thing, there is something about that person that captures our hearts and imaginations. This song captures that feeling!
Love the melody, vocal phrasing and the whole thing really. Couple of years back I was at a wake for a fallen rider. This song wouldn't have been out of place there. Vic
It's never too late? Yes it is, so do it now.
If, given time, a monkey can write the complete works of Shakespeare maybe there's hope for me.
Not just because I did the video, but because the song keeps tugging at my heartstrings every time I watch the video.
I think It's because I have always seen riders as invisible people in leathers with helmets on. Didn't relate at all to them as people underneath. (and I don't drive).
But now listening to the song (great lyrics and music and vocals by the way) and seeing these human faces with their very human smiles and faces in the video, made me realize that under those leathers are people with families and friends. Young people, girls, boys, family people, normal lives cut short.
Doing the video was for me a revelation.and I think this should be seen by others.(not cause I did it), but to maybe take away the cloak of leather and helmet and show that riders are humans underneath.. Michael sent me the images, and the order, I just put it together. And I enjoyed doing it, even though I did it will a lump in my throat.

This one hit home with me, my neighbor Mike Gasser age 56 just lost his life two months ago on his new Harley on a curve. Friends/family sure miss him too. Great song concept here guys! Nice job.
