I hope you don't mind if I used your video, I credited all sources, with their youtube video names, at the end.

"The tragedy here is two-fold: Not only did we lose Jimmy Lee Lindsey and Jay Reatard, but we'll also never know his full potential as an artist, songwriter, and performer. Not nearly enough people will realize the void he left." - Mike Burr

"The flying V never looked more at home than in his hands" - Sky Larkin

"Jay was what few people have the capacity to be. He created an undeniably classic album that contained so much pain transferred to tape in such an explosive way that it made you feel different after hearing it. He was transgressive and honest. His flaws were something he focused on and overdubbed and distorted until they made you forget who he really was-- a person with feelings and a good heart. He loved music and worked hard from a young age to pursue it. He was a self-made and unmade man. I am truly sickened to see him go." - Bradford Cox of Deerhunter
