"When I'm Gone"


  
 I’ve listened to my fair share of moving, tear-jerking, songs.  Have to admit there are times when I seek them out…just to get a good cry in!  Somehow opening the flood gates releases all the negative energy and I can move on.
There is a song that recently hit the airwaves that pulls your heart right into your throat.  It definitely meets the criteria of “tear-jerker” and then some.  “When I’m Gone” by husband and wife duo, Joey and Rory, is the ultimate love letter put to music.  It’s a beautifully written story of a wife reassuring her husband that he’ll be alright and will find his way on his own after her passing.
The soft melodies and haunting lyrics of this song will have you reaching for the tissue box in 2.2 seconds flat.  Joey’s vocals along with Rory’s harmonies are perfection, as always.
First, grab the tissue box….then watch this amazing video for a song that should be nominated for, and win, many industry and fan-voted awards.  Such genuine raw emotion….it simply doesn’t get any better.
