Thank you so much, my mother just died because of dementia. I took care for her several years. I'm so glad I could help her and I'm really missing her... 😢 This is heartwarming 💕 Love from Holland P.S She was a beautiful and proud woman, so it was hard to see her struggle. She could be very agressive towards caretakers, even towards me. And very confused in place and time. But then again she could be sweet and loving as well. She loved music and we sang a lot together, made us very close. But it's a terrible disease and I'm releaved her struggle has ended. Thank you once again, Reina. Very well done 💕💕

Two strange things here: 1) I found y'all while looking up "The Tennessee Waltz" to play at my moms funeral. She'd grown up playing it on the piano while her mother and daddy danced. You did a beautiful rendition of that! 2) I was born in 1970. I've been talking for the last month about dementia (runs in my family) and warning people about my generation is becoming 'that age'...we're about to see a HUGE rise in our country. THANK YOU for bringing awareness to this subject. All of you are wonderful, but of course it's always nice to see you and Toni are doing well and looking as beautiful as always. XOXOXO

I was born in 1970. My mother died in October before her 84th birthday. She died having lived with dementia for years. Terrible disease. Beautiful song.

Once you're lucky enough to find Reina and all her friends, you don't want to listen to to commercial radio ever again.

Y'all... this is another level. Bravo.

What Keits s said... She's top for percussion.. Josh also noted .. "another level"

I`ve been a musician for now more than 40 years. I grew up in a time where musicians still had the time to grow as a band and not have been designed by producers and record companies just to fulfill doubtable needs of a possible audience, which mostly are just good for the bank accounts of those business sharks. I found myself in an almost endless number of musical situations, played with a lot of different artists in just as much different styles. I've seen fashions come and go, and over the last few years unfortunately seeing some of my musical idols leaving the planet. It's so good to see that there is an upcoming new generation who really knows what makes a song great, what makes music great.... it has to touch your heart without deviation via the consciousness of the brain Keep on doing with what you do and the way you do it. Keep on growing as a performer, player, writer, whatever. Don't let them tell you what's right or wrong. Being a musician is a team sport and it's meant to be that way. The world needs more bands like this one i just listened to. Thank you Reina and all your band members

Just wonderful. The songwriting, singing and playing. So many talented people on this song. Thanks for sharing.

Can we all encourage more content from Beth Goodfellow on the kit? That was some performance. Reina, beautifully expressed as usual.

Honestly? A great song, great musicians.... I’m playing this several times in a day.. love the drummer’s groove - brilliant

My Father died last year of Alzheimers and my Mom has severe loss of memory / dementia. I LOVE this Reina - Gracias and mucho LOVE to you and Toni and the band, Amazing sound - FAN forever

This is a song of such high intelligence and wonder, to say nothing of musicality, it should be reverberating around a stunned and delighted world. It is properly startling. A kind of absolute perfection. Flawless,

That was exceptional.

It's official: Beth is now my favorite drummer. I love the drumstick under the arm thing at 3:10. Another great RDC song. Looking forward to the album.

Awesome songwriting. Just beautiful.And the drummer is something else!

I'm an old man (74) I was a drummer in the '60s and '70s and a singer-songwriter-guitarist thereafter up to now. I'd seen Reina with Josh Turner and Molly (?) and that other guy ...I mean Carson (just jesting), and I stumbled on this the way you do on YT. That first fur bar drum intro caught me. but then the poignant lyrics of your song hit home. I am not unfamiliar with caring for Alzheimers victims. I'd just like to say that you Reina, and your compatriots give me hope for music in a world seemingly dominated by rap and preprogrammed 8 bar loops. Thank you.

Thanks Reina, Alzheimers got my Dad. He's up in Heaven listening to this song with me right now. Beautiful.

I was born in 1970,....that is a room full of talent, Reina we LOVE all of you guys, there is hope for the world of music,... instead of disposable performers and their noise, why aren't you performing at the halftime show ?

Superior musicians and great song writers. They play from the gut and perfectly capture the emotion of this horrible disease which claimed my mom last year.

I like Rachelle's original songs (music and lyrics), i enjoy her voice and musicality on covers and originals and her gentle leadership, I am a huge fan of Tony's guitar, but the one thing I always come back for is Rachelle's grin and facial expressions, singing or talking!

Thank you. Just thank you. There's so much of my Mom in this song, who passed away right before Lockdown and struggled with dementia.

Dieses tolle Schlagzeug-Intro und der gallopierende Rhythmus ist etwas unglaublch einmaliges und total verrücktes - Ein irrer Song !!!

My friend Elizabeth on drums! Great song and vibe ❤️

You two make me smile....and that drummer..she's a keeper.

The Women who play`s the Drum`s and Percussion in the Background is the really Star in your Band ... !!!

I too was mesmerized by the drumming and then at 3:19 when she made the phone ring I jumped up like, “Ooooooooh” like I was was watching someone dunk a basketball! 🤣 I love this whole song and it’s vibe. ✌🏽

Grandmother @ 103, didn't slip until the last 6 months. Father @ 78, about 18 months. I've had my time. I hope the best for y'all. If you don't die when (fill in your favorite designation) you will die old. Great song. Thanks. Old Guy.

My Dad had Alzheimers & passed in 2003. It was a devastating disease that really changed him. Thank you for this song . God bless.🌹

The electric piano adds so much to your voice, just beautiful!

I’m an old guy. I lived through the seventies. I very impressed by the product you and your cohorts have put out over the years. Thanks for sharing your gifts.

So much talent, so much skill - the balance was amazing throughout - tightrope walking on a plank.

Beth is awesome on drums! Beautiful arrangement. 😎

Love the song and special note for *super badass drums from Beth Goodfellow!

In 1970 I was starting my last two years at secondary school, listening to The Beatles, Elvis, Joe Cocker, Blue Mink..Shawaddywaddy, Tina Turner, Jimi Hendrix, Stevie Wonder, Ray Charles..and so many more...I'm listening to you guys (also Josh Turner & Carson & all the gang of talent you work with..a lot now! 👍 I was fortunate enough to see Will Barber in Gruissan before he got famous..

Been a fan for years, and I just want to thank you for this song. Lost my grandmother in 2020 and now my grandfather is struggling with Alzheimer's. Thank you for this.

You have captured the atmosphere and feelings of suffering with dementia in a haunting rendition. Absolutely first class. Loved it.

What a voice, what a song!!!!! 💞🇩🇪😘👍🏼 .......and I have Alzheimer and dementia with my 70. years! Beautiful young people and musicians! LG.... Phil Collins, jep the ol man from Genesis. Greetings 💞🎈🎶🎵🎹🎸🪕🥁😉

Well, I still remember 1970, but this song sounds great in 2022.

This is beautiful music. Wonderful to hear music where a drummer isn't hitting the drummers with all the power they have or someone whaling on a guitar with gain, distortion and overdrive turned turned to the max and someone screaming and shrieking at the top of their lungs into a microphone.

And the tine piano--perfect.

This Rhythm is so Phantaskik, I like it !

Great tune. Drummer kickin'!

Memories of 1970! As Rosie and I get ready for our 52nd wedding anniversary in two days I think back on the picture I took of her in front of the Brown Stucco house the day I received my draft papers for the U.S. Army. The song I wrote (Brown Stucco house) reflects this and how my friend Bobby and I would take turns on his old Gibson on those same steps. Bobby died shortly thereafter in Vietnam. Keep up the splendid work Reina and Toni. Burlington Bill here busking from home and the road!

I've been a casual fan for a long time. I show your stuff to my girls, ages 10 and 13, to show them a talented musician and songwriter. This one was different for me. I haven't been touched by these terrible conditions too closely, but we all see our parents and grandparents over the years and their decline. I'm younger, at least for now, but maybe I'll remember 2007 like that some day when I was a young man in the navy and just married. The sentiment here in your song is just absolutely heart-rending. This is what real music does. Not the stuff that's put out by committee at a record label with the formulaic chords and lyrics. Sometimes, life is hard. It deserves a song too.

Anyone who has any experience of this condition will be moved by your song thank you 😊 🙏

That has to be the finest and most tasteful drumming I've ever heard in my entire life!

Came for Reina and Toni and the song is marvelous but the drummer is beyond belief. No flash or heavy volume but grabs you by the throat from start to finish. Must find more by her. Thank you as always.

What a wonder, Reina.Some very smart musicians gathered by you. Performing a properly touching song. I say this with experience . . . Beth is surely a kind of improbable miracle. I have never heard/seen such properly innovative drumming. Key boards a delight. And Toni, who gets more and more precise, filled with music. Plus, for you a curly hair-do. I must be in love! PS Nice boots.

Such a beautiful song! I know I will have it repeat on my phone for sometime now! 🥰 My dad and I stumbled upon on KZread and can't get enough of it. Sending loads of love...🥰💕 The lines, "You see my best days arе the worst days because I'm alive there in 1970." Oh I feel this... I wish I could write line this!

Beautiful song, beautiful singing, beautifully played, beautifully arranged and produce. Love it!!!

Very, very nice. Your accompaniment was also first rate.

This is a masterpiece. Pure and simple Makes me think about my late mother Eleanore DeMar this morning. She officially died from Alzheimer's Disease on December 22, 2010 but my sister and I watched her die a little bit every day for 4 years before that. Thank you writing a beautiful, albeit tragic song. Bravo to everyone in the band for a wonderful performance. The electric piano was very appropriate for a song entitled " 1970"😊 P.S. i have a song selection suggestion for you. Please do a cover of " New Speedway Boogie " by the Grateful Dead.

Music does not get any better than this! Lyrics, lead singing, smooth harmonies, instrument work, arrangement, ... and how 'bout that incredible drum groove! And its all presented in a spot-on live performance!

Beth Goodfellow is my favorite drummer, ever.

A great song! I must say that by stumbling across Josh Turner over a decade ago, a door opened to a huge roomful of wonderfully talented musical artists who never cease to amaze, uplift and impress! From a 67 yr old guitarist, bassist and drummer who would have loved to ran across players like you all when I was your age, warmest regards and please… keep it coming!

Hi, thi is the Best Song I ever heard on Happy Sunday Morning ... !!!! - The Groove is wonderfull ...!!!

Having been a caregiver for countless people with various forms of dementia since my grandfather, in 1980, these lyrics bring back so many memories and help me to cherish the memory of those lovely heartbreaking people. In the truest sense, you're a bard. Thank you, for myself and for posterity, thank you.

Love this. Lost my mom to dementia and Alzheimer's. Such a cruel ending for loved ones.

Those first lines hit really hard.... Didn't expect that from what was looking like an upbeat song. Thanks.
