Tried really hard on this song. If you have time, look up the real story about Tony Basta in St. Paul, Minnesota. There is no music or words that could truly tell such a sad tale. It's every parents worst nightmare. Lucky that @andrew-borderick and @jeff_roberts helped out. Have a great xmas and holiday season ;-) 2021-12-12T03:26:40Z Comment by BIRAUD Frederic cool song 2021-12-11T17:51:04Z Comment by Deep Fathom Extraordinary song!
