Glen Campbell To Alzheimer Facility

Jesus. Brain memory diseases have to be the worst.

Yep, the only good thing about it is there's little or no pain involved.

Bad way to live though, if you call it living.

Sucks.

The day the music died

Is it in "Galveston".

I knew it was coming eventually. Such a great musician. The lyrics to Galveston. It's a song about a soldier in the Nam:

Galveston, oh Galveston, I still hear your sea winds blowin'
I still see her dark eyes glowin'
She was 21 when I left Galveston

Galveston, oh Galveston, I still hear your sea waves crashing
While I watch the cannons flashing
I clean my gun and dream of Galveston

I still see her standing by the water
Standing there lookin' out to sea
And is she waiting there for me?
On the beach where we used to run

Galveston, oh Galveston, I am so afraid of dying
Before I dry the tears she's crying
Before I watch your sea birds flying in the sun
At Galveston, at Galveston

My grandma suffered for 15+ years with this. Very sad.

I used to know every crack in these dirty sidewalks of Broadway.

With a subway token and a dollar stuffed inside my shoe...

Glen Campbell and I finally have something in common: Neither of us know any of his songs
