As many of you may know, today marks the 10 year anniversary since we lost Layne Staley, the original lead singer of Alice in Chains. The video above is a tribute I made about four years ago which has had over 20,000 views.
The song featured is “10,000 Miles” by Mary Chapin Carpenter. I know, it’s sort of an unlikely pairing. I first heard this song as a kid in the movie, Fly Away Home and it brought sadness to me. It still does. The lyrics fell into place with how I felt about Layne.
So let’s all take a moment to pay respects to such a beautiful man that will never be forgotten.
Fare thee well, my own true love…
1967-2002
