One of the most beautiful and heartbreaking songs ever written.

One of the few songs that’s literally brought me to tears.

Mark is a complete utter genius. I pray to see him live someday, he's one of those few artists who's just as good and most of the time better live

So poignant and beautiful, !!!

Great song, and great version. Thanks for capturing this so nicely. Keep it up

Oh Carissa, when I first saw you, you were a lovely child And the last time I saw you, you were fifteen and pregnant and running wild I remember wondering, could there be a light at the end of your tunnel? But I left Ohio then and pretty much forgotten all about you I guess you were there some years ago at a family funeral But you were one of so many relatives I didn't know which one was you Yesterday morning I woke up to so many, 330 area code calls I called my mom back and she was in tears and asked how to spoke to my father Carissa burned to death last night in a freak accident fire In her yard in Bruster her daughter came home from a party and found her Same way as my uncle who was her grandfather An aerosol can blew up in the trash, goddamn, what were the odds? She was just getting ready to go to her midnight shift as an RN in Rosworth And she vanished up in flames like that but there had to be more to her life's worth Everyone's grieving out of their minds, making arrangements and taking drugs But I'm flying out there tomorrow because I need to give and get some hugs Cause I got questions that I'd like to get answered I may never get them, but Carissa gotta know how did it happen Carissa was 35, you don't just raise two kids and take out your trash and die She was my second cousin, I didn't know her well at all but it doesn't mean that I wasn't Meant to find some poetry to make some sense of this, to find a deeper meaning In a senseless tragedy, oh Carissa I'll sing your name across every sea Were you doing someone else's chores for them? Were you just killing time, finding things to do all by your lonesome? Was it even you mistakenly put flammables in the trash Was it your kids just being kids, and so, oh, the guilt they will carry around forever Well I'm going out there to get a look at the landscapes To get a look at those I'm connected by blood and see how it all may have shaped me Well I'm going out there though I'm not really needed I'm just so broken up about it, how is it that this sad history repeated? I'll return to Ohio, to the place I was born Gonna see where I hung with my cousins and played with them in the snow Fist in their palms, gonna see how they've grown Visit some greats and say hey I've missed you Gonna find out as much as I can about my second little cousin Carissa Gonna go to Ohio, where I was born Got a 10: 45 am flight, I'm leaving tomorrow morning Gonna see my aunts and my uncles, my parents and sisters Mostly I'm going to pay my respects to my little second cousin Carissa Going to Ohio where I feel I belong Ask those who know the most about Carissa for it her life and death that I'm helplessly drawn Carissa was thirty-five, raised kids since she was fifteen years old and suddenly died Next to an old river, fire pit, oh there's gotta be more than that to it She was only my second cousin but it don't mean that I'm not here for her or that I wasn't Meant to give her life poetry, make sure her name is known across every city

Thank you for uploading this

I only discovered you yesterday and the funny thing is I was so sad on my birthday and valentine's day (even a simple wish n a hug would have been more than enough). And then I heard Birthday Girl yesterday I broke down. He broke up with me two months ago. But that's life, I guess. I will move on. I will attract, not chase.

As someone who knows that feeling of only wanting a simple wish and a hug I sympathize. Here is a wish and a virtual hug from me at least.

Demasiado hermosa composición Sr koselek , tengo un buen amigo que toca la guitarra increíble. . algún día te veré tocar deseo que puedas venir a España estaré pendiente

God, He's a genius.

thank you Antonio for bringing such sonic and lyrical beauty to the world. Great videography too. I love how you zoom in and out and the different angles and such superb audio too! Do you know what make of guitar he plays? I can almost see it but can't quite make out the luthier's name. Also what kind of internal pickup he is using as I noticed his guitar is a plug-in but it sounds so natural, much like he's playing directly into a mic.

Jose Ramirez, I just got a 4NE and it’s an amazing guitar. I’ve fallen in love with his tone over the years and it’s such a rich sound. I’d like to know the pickup as well. I’m going to his show in Ohio at the end of the month and will ask him.

I was just at his show standing right by his feet. He plays a Ramirez and I’m unsure of the pickup but it has an internal dial near his low strings. He plays into a Pro48 active direct box into a stage monitor. I just bought a Ramirez 4NE myself and the tone is unmatched to any classical I’ve played. Such a rich sound.
