@khasrow29 Thank you Khasrow. I actually didn't write this song. It was written by my husband, Rich Sheldon but I love Bill so much, that I decided to record it myself. I like Carlin too but Bill's heart was so big under all that frustration and I just really related to him. I feel like he said everything I thought and couldn't communicate, but with his brilliant comedic talent! Best of luck to you with your stand-up!

congratulations on a great peice of work someone who could see deeper into bill hicks's words not always funny but alway thorght prevoking and deep listen to his words with out a closed of mind and be an improved person because of it. you dont have to take all he says a gospel (thats dangerous) but there is something in something bill said that can be applyed to us all

Hi Wayne,

Thanks for your kind words. Putting anything out there relating to Bill is definitely like walking through a mine field. Everyone has such strong feels and thoughts about him and his life. What an incredibly brilliant, funny, cynical and at the same time hopeful human being he was! Could you imagine how much he would have to say about the state of the world today! :) Gypsy

Rest In Peace, Bill

is this in charleston?

and bill hicks' videos are some of the best things i've ever watched... everybody should see them, at least listen to what he has to say. he was a very smart person, and saw the world a lot more clearly than most people for what it really was. everyone can probably learn something from his words.
