Not in a way of mortality, but in the way of happiness. \n\nI lost my wife Teresa almost exactly a year ago to glioblastoma. I had the privilege of being her caretaker the last 6 months of her life. One of the things we did was listen to your show almost every morning. It was always a reminder that someone always has it worse and it helped us feel even more grateful for the nearly 30 years we were together.\n\nThank you for helping ease our grief even before her passing. Some of the nicest calmest and connected times we had together was listening to your show and the beautiful music you chose, and often the words you spoke. \n\nThank you❤️\n\nI you could be so kind as to play Ray Lamontagne \nWe'll make it Through I would very much appreciate that. It always reminds me of her.\n\nI am not alone...\n\nYou\nAre not alone.\n\nMIke",

Speaking about the song, Ashcroft shares, \"There's a new track I've just written [...] It goes 'the drugs don't work, they just make me worse, and I know I'll see your face again.' That's how I'm feeling at the moment. They make me worse, man. But I still take 'em. Out of boredom and frustration you turn to something else to escape.\" https://tinyurl.com/ye2b67kz",

            "comment": "This gorgeous song features a collaboration with Michael Stipe of R.E.M. \n---\nKristin Hersh said, \"“Michael Stipe came across a cassette on my business manager’s table” Kristin Hersh begins, discussing the indelible and desirable nature of 1994’s Your Ghost. “He kind of grabbed it and gave it to Warners. It was a bit like someone reading your diary, I thought, in the acoustic demo forms. So, when I went to record the album again, I was putting Your Ghost down with a cello, which wasn’t doing what I wanted. The D tune wasn’t coming out the way I wanted it to. I was talking to Michael on the phone, he probably thought I was going to fuck it up, and he was giving me advice and listening to his tone, it fixed the song. I convinced him to sing on it, telling him it definitely wouldn’t be a single, there wouldn’t be a video or anything, ha ha. Luckily, he’s a good sport about it all”.",
