His voice was loved because it was the voice of truth.
"You wanna save humanity but it's people that you just
can't stand." We laughed and felt good that he was saying what
we wanted to say but couldn't. It was fun to hear truth,
when you didn't have to pay its price yourself.

Then there was a time when the world thought his voice was silenced
by a gunshot. It wasn't. john is still singing. John is still talking.

His voice is a voice of love.
"I was visualizing all the people of my age group and singing
to them...people that grew up with me. I'm saying. Here I am now.
How are you, how's your relationship going?
Did you get through it all. Weren't the seventies a grag? Here we are,
wee, let's try and make the eighties good..."

Yes, John. The eightes was a real drag for a lot of us, though.
We did get through somehow. And we're all here, I guess....
As I said a long time ago, "There is a wind that never dies."
I didn't know that was you.
