Jimi was my dear friend,who was a genuinely kind and thoughtful person. He loved his children fiercely and unconditionally. Family was very important to jimi. I said goodbye to him for the last time at the grave sight where generations of his ancestors and his beloved mother waited for him. It was a quiet place resting under ancient trees and green farmland. There was such a feeling of peace. It was a place of grace. It was where jimi belonged, with his family. gift. I every day of my life.

I think that the music of now, leaves a lot to debate, it's incredible to have grown up in the 80s, I didn't have that opportunity but I love the music of that time, I have a lot of Jimi's music in my playlist, I start, with his beginnings in survivor, and he finished with all his solo albums, and that's how I spend the day listening to him🎧🎶

The best vocals of any older singer. Others try and sound nothing like they used to. This was GREAT!

I still love the way he sings this song , even when he is older. his voice is still fantastic.

He lost a little of the dimension his voice had in his youth, but absolutely none of the talent or charm. As the years have gone by, the world has lost iconic artists well before their time. But I honestly can say I have never felt a deep, aching loss for ANY of them before. To be so talented and to have such an incredible, truly musical voice (they are definitely NOT the same thing!), he was still so absolutely beautiful, inside and out. His genuine humility, love for the music, and honest kindness can really be felt. The world not only lost a voice that has yet to be matched, but a celebrity that didn't act like one. Jimi, you were truly one of a kind.

They do not make singers like this anymore. The emotion and love of music he had just emits from him. He had an amazing voice and was very passionate W/ each song, performance. Also seemed to be a VERY nice man, regular "Joe". He was taken too soon. R.I.P. Jimi, hope to meet you on the other side 1 day to thank you for the outstanding, emotionally deep music. No matter the situation in life, his voice always has a way of making me smile. Kind of like a warm hug (I know that sounds strange). You were and still are awesome :>) !!

I still get Chills every time I hear this song sung by Jimi.

Jimi. J. Great singer. Rip

That voice, that range..it's still there after so many years! Amazing! Very few can sing this song live!

Not even the orchestra could overpower Jimi's voice. When you talk to other singers about the greatest voices in rock, his is one of the first mentioned.

This is a true story. I had a difficult time in the mid 80's. I had an abusive mother and I was generally a very sad kid and when this song came out I was about 12. This song and other Survivor songs really caught my attention but I had no idea the real reason why yet. Coincidentally around this same time I had access to a basic synthesizer. The kind you get from a department store. Survivor's sound... lots of keys, distorted guitars and Jimi's voice... wow. I was just starting to learn to become a musician and they inspired me so much. The music was so lush and emotional and helped me to escape my sadness for brief moments, and now I was learning to do it too. When I finished high school I was aimless. I threw caution to the wind and moved to NYC and began to pursue music. That was in 1997. Fast forward 23 years, a lot of hard work and passion... Now here in 2020 I am the proud recipient of 19 Gold albums, 11 Platinum, 4 Multi-Platinum and one Diamond award... along with 9 Grammys. This music came into my life and changed it forever. If it weren't for that, I have no idea where I'd be. It helped me create a life and legacy as a record producer that I am proud of. I am eternally grateful. This video brought me back to that small town in 1984.
