And it was more than being holy
Oh it was less than being free
And if you can’t recall the reason
Can you hear the people sing

What’s up?

Tom Miller’s last day on the radio will be this upcoming Friday. He’s been the voice of (and, in my cases, for) Southern Illinois. He’s truly one of the great ones.

Sorry to hear that Mr. Diamond has been having health problems, but this song was the point in The Last Waltz to go out for popcorn.
