[QUOTE=Madam Medusa;7383959]it is an amazing song, i agree...used so poignantly in the live aid concerts...

MM, yes REM ,I agree.
Same same with this in Live8. I was there at this point and while I prefer
other recordings,this one is the one that makes sure you understand.....
I defy anyone to watch this and not get choked....
Allen 1 ..where are you these days?

that's not the point...most artists probably sing about the stuff they go through in life, it's what inspires them...Tears in Heaven is just a bad song, no matter what the thought behind it was...but people are afraid to say that cause it makes them sound heartless or something...

WEll maybe not quite so severe big man!

Although some tool in the IV last night dropped a glass and a shard of glass hit a vein in my ankle, wouldnt stop bleeding! The same ankle as was clattered on Friday, so not only is it bruised and a bit tender but now has a big cut in it, which has only just stopped bleeding!

Hey I'll write a song about that!!!
