@Takomuhra Indeed it is. the music my dad bought me up on. But if it dosent have a techie, a rapper or a pre-pubescent kid singing they dont care. Real music is dieing, but it shall never be forgotten by those who know where it all started.

Not about gambling. about life.
Gotta play the hand you're dealt, but sometimes even the worst hand can win if you play it right.
Also, don't worry too hard about how you're doing (don't count your money) while you're still living, because you never know when things will change completely.
And of course, you have to realize there's a time to hold on to what is important, and a time to let go of something that's ultimately going to end up screwing you over.

Why do people go around disliking videos all the time? Do you seriously have nothing better to do? This is a beautiful song.
