When All We Need is Love - A Musical Tribute to Our Dog Bowie

[lovegermanshepherds]

Hi Mark

Your song and your tribute message have me crying as the words are so beautiful

Having lost beautiful four legged friends I fully relate to the loss of the companionship and love of Bowie that you feel and the ones that passed on before, all leave their legacy

Thank you my friend for sharing this

Cheyenne

[Maysey1]

Thank you Cheyenne for this heartfelt comment, it's very much appreciated. We miss everyone of them, but they are forever ingrained in our hearts and memories.

[ItsWaldo]

What a great song.....beautiful music and lyrics.

A fantastic tribute to Bowie ~~Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ~~

[mgturn99]

This is so beautiful Mark! Made me shed a tear. I love your heartfelt music, the music of LIFE. Keep up the amazing work!

-Anthony

[Maysey1]

Thank you Anthony, I truly appreciate you taking the time to stop by and share these words with me.

[mlpgrow123]

stunningly beautiful, you play and sing so lovely and we too know the loss of a loved one, my emphathy and compassion are with you, what a lovely job you did, wow, amazing!

[Maysey1]

thank you for stopping by and sharing these kind words and my sincerest condolences on the loss of your loved ones. my wife and I have always had pets in our 30 years together and they all can conjure up good memories of our past. Wishing you a peaceful and pleasant weekend ahead.

[cadjunk]

Mark, this is beautiful, but a tear jerker. Loved the song, the words, and the beautiful video. I too, know what it is to lose and have to let a precious pet go. I'm so sorry for your loss. I lost my beautiful Jocie, my basset hound, in December, and I still miss her so. She was 13, and I rescued her when she was one. Thanks so much for sharing your beautiful song. It went to my favorites. Gwen

[Maysey1]

Thank you for stopping by Gwen and my sincerest condolences for the loss of Jocie as well, it's sad to loose them, but they definitely our forever in our hearts and help define who we are and where we've been. We hold special memories with all of our pets that have passed on and they always help us remember specific events from our past when we think of them. We still have a house full of pets, 3 cats and 2 dogs and they all have their own personalities. Wishing you a beautiful week ahead!!!

[cadjunk]

@Maysey1 Thank you Mark for your very kind message. I adopted a cat in August of last year, never had one so it is an experience, and I'm so glad I had John Boy the cat, when I had to put Jocie down. It helped so much and he does help to feel that void, but I still miss her so. I keep thinking, do I want to get another basset, if I did I would go thru rescue again, I know that. It just seems that a cat is so independent, but I do love him. You take Mark. Thanks again. Gwen

[Maysey1]

I'm glad you got another pet Gwen, they never take the place of the ones before, but they always seem to know how to make us feel better - you'll know when it's time to get another dog and I commend you for going with the rescues, all of ours have been rescues, including my wife and I...LOL! Always a pleasure hearing from you Gwen. Mark

[cadjunk]

@Maysey1 Thanks Mark. I'm smiling at your comment about you and your wife. You all seem very devoted, and I love seeing that. Have a great week, my friend.  Gwen

[Twinkieears]

[Maysey1]

Thank you for sharing kim. mark

[azarragamichael]

this is beautiful mark. i wanna do it, if you can adjust the key to my range because it's a bit too low for me. :) i've never done an original before and it'll be awesome to do one for the first time.

[Maysey1]

Thank you Michael, I have a good friend that could probably redo this again in a different key. It's in the key of D now, what key do you think you would feel most comfortable in for this song? I believe you were doing "Somewhere over the Rainbow" in E? I'm really looking forward to this! Mark

[azarragamichael]

@Maysey1

yep, that might work. :) i'm really looking forward to this too.

[Maysey1]

I think your voice will be perfect for this song and the message. Thank you for doing this Michael. Mark

[DreamerLaboratory]

We came back for listening your fantastic song again, Mark!

This is so so so beautiful and touching!!

Never get tired of it. :)

Listen to your music, feels like home.

Bo Bo & Martin :D

[RobJamesPaynter]

Lovely song and video. Thanks for sharing.

[cazicam]

That's beautiful, Mark. It brought a lump to my throat and tears to my eyes. I have also had pets that have had to be put to sleep or passed on. It's very painful. You and Noy have so much compassion and love. You are both so beautiful. Beautiful pets too, I'm sure they miss Bowie too. Love you much. See you soon.

[1954WBA]

We had a golden lab that grew with our family from puppy til the day we had to put him to sleep... We know how yall feel. It's hard. I patted him on the head and gave him a hug and walked outside to cry. I could stay for his end. I wanted to remember him alive. I still get a lump in my throat thinkin about it, although it's been many years now.

..This song will put a lump in your throat too ..... that's when you know It's good.

[Maysey1]

We miss you very much Bowie and just know you are at peace now.

Mark, Noy, Lynn, Ben, Trevor and Lena

[Maysey1]

PS! forgot to mention Spike, Fluffy and your other friends in the neighborhood.

[awsonja1955]

@Maysey1

Please listen to our song that was dedicated to our little chocolate lab Mandy who died from liver cancer when she was 8,,It is Golden Heart by Mark Knopfler,,,,She wandered our neighborhood in the mountains and was loved by everyone,Perhaps Mandy and Bowie are romping it up now~I pray all of you can embrace the endearing love Bowie gave~It Is forever!

[dollydimple1000]

I just love you guys !!

[dgcmusi]

The guitar just sparkles in the beginning ...This is so beautiful and soulful .

What blows me away each time I hear ricks work is the production.

[othercousin]

I really like the guitar part and melody. Hope the song process brought many great memories and helped ease the pain. I pray all my animal friends have an afterlife, they deserve it for all the companionship they give us. Prayers to you and Noy. The world needs more ppl like ya'll.

bri

[Maysey1]

Thank you for this wonderful comment Bri and my sincerest and heartfelt condolences for your losses. The love of family, friends and our pets is what defines us the most as compassionate and caring individuals. We truly appreciate your very kind and thoughtful words here. Mark and Noy

[othercousin]

I'm familiar with the struggle of when to let them go. Two yrs ago my mother was dying of cancer and my 15 yr companions "Spotamusmaximus" and his sidekick "Fuzzybear" were dying of Lukemia. It was heartwrenching every day on my way home from work thinking one of the 3 surely passed today. I probably held out too long because of the emotions surrounding my mother. One month after mom died I realized it was past time. For me the month of Feb. is hard to get thru remembering that year. Great song

[Maysey1]

This is one of my most favorite songs Mark. I grieve your loss of a great spirit and friend. I understand how close our special family members are to us. The bonds are deep and the spirit will always be with you as a guardian angel always watches over the ones they love.

I finally got around to adding one of your songs to the World United Music Blog, and it is this video. I would also like to do a 2 song feature on the Minstral Show of your original music if you are willing.

[Maysey1]

Wonderful video and performance. The video pictures and transitions are the best. You really have great acoustics on this one and the harmonies are beautiful. This song really sounded special and when I read the description I see that it is special. Your best friend Bowie has crossed the Rainbow Bridge and is now waiting on the other side. I know what it feels like to waiting on this side of the rainbow bridge after my three of my best friends crossed it in years past.

Dogs...do not ruin their sleep worrying about how to keep the objects they have, and to obtain the objects they have not. There is nothing of value they have to bequeath except their love and their faith.

[cutseypoo777]

Ahh what a very touching song & dedication in loving memory of a beloved family member. Saying good-bye to a pet is just as heartbreaking as saying good-bye to a family member, & Bowie couldn't have asked for a better life after he was rescued from the shelter. I know he is smiling upon you, thanking you for giving him your sweetest unconditional love, & I know he will hold a place for you when your time has come. May he rest in peace.

Lots of l♥ve,

Angie
