Blood, Sweat, & Tears - And When I Die - Billboard Chart Hit - #2 - Oct. 1969

Blood, Sweat & Tears (also known as "BS&T") is an American music group, originally formed in 1967 in New York City. Since its beginnings in 1967, the band has gone through numerous iterations with varying personnel and has encompassed a multitude of musical styles. What the band is most known for, from its start, is the fusing of rock, blues, pop music, horn arrangements and jazz improvisation into a hybrid that came to be known as "jazz-rock". Unlike "jazz fusion" bands, which tend toward virtuostic displays of instrumental facility and some experimentation with electric instruments, the songs of Blood, Sweat & Tears merged the stylings of rock, pop and R&B/soul music with big band, while also adding elements of 20th Century Classical and small combo jazz traditions.

@bu88les985 peace to you and yours. It's a path I walked myself with my mother so you have my sympathy

@bu88les985 God be with your Brother and make the best of him while he is still in the mix. I turn 60 on Tuesday and my health is of the fucking rail but I can still turn it around so this is what I have to do because I have to kids, 14 and 11 and I need to be around for them as long as I can. Tell your Brother that I am praying for him and that God be with him.

@bu88les985 Sorry for your loss. I was just thinking of my good friend who also chose to go naturally, and did so just a couple days ago. Sharing your pain today.

To be remembered in the hearts of those that have been left behind - is to never die!!!!!! Godspeed!!!!!

My most heartfelt condolences.

What brought me to post this song today is the realization that my own time is limited ... albeit not yet as specifically determined by any doctor. I'm not scared of dying ... what concerns me is not having the time left to share what I've learned with my kids, or to adequately explain the significance, sentimental or otherwise, of the few meager possessions I have, that were handed down to me or otherwise, that I hold dear.
