Tribute to the 29 miners, ages 20 to 61, who died in the April 5, 2010, explosion at the Massey Energy Upper Big Branch Mine near Montcoal, WV. Thoughts and prayers go out to all.
@kdukedude i don't mean to be an ass but they are chances of survival in an explosion if you ever worked in a coal mines you would understand there is always hope. from a coal miner
I live in West Virginia... Not trying to be the mean guy here, But the officials say the mine xplosion could've been prevented, it couldn't it was an unknown gas pocket the Ignited, I have no clue why they sent a rescue squad, Once it blew they were dead... Though all prayers and thoughts to the family of the miners
29 miners also perished in New Zealand on Nov 19, 2020, at the Pike River Mine. This is a tribute song to all the brave miners in the world, sung through the story of 17 year old victim Joseph ....

This is a very moving and heart felt reaction to the unnecessary loss of 29 coal miners. We can only hope that the MSHA, state mine safety and health agencies, and the public will come together to demand an end to unsafe mining practices. There is a song about another mining disaster, Bone and blood are the price of coal. That is a price far too. Let us end the political squabbles, establish and enforce the needed standards to protect the miners no mater which party is in power in Washington.
God bless there familys
