The chorus in this song is beautifully melodic and haunting, that chord progression and vocal melody have been floating around in my memory for decades now.What talented song writers these two were and they made their mark. RIP Nick.

[lurch321]

First Dimebag Darrell, then Peter Steele, then Ronnie James Dio, then The Big Man, then Jani Lane, and now.................NICK?? I know it's different musical genres, but that's not the point. All these guys were awesome at what they did. You are sorely missed, Nick.................stay strong, Valerie.

Too bad they ruined this song by remaking it-or as I read-allowed it to be remade...such a shame. They allowed a classic to be ruined.
