"Unforgetting You" - Dedicated to all those affected by Alzheimers Disease

in #music6 years ago

"Unforgetting You" written by Jeff Ross (performed by Jeff & Jessie Ross) - this song is an original song, written and dedicated to all those suffering from- or know someone suffering from- Alzheimers Disease or Dementia.

I wrote this song several years ago. A co-worker of mine had a mother who was suffering from Alzheimer's disease and was constantly taking time off work to fly back and forth out of state. I took it as inspiration to write a song from a patient's point of view. It's a story of someone who can't remember who keeps visiting him, but still knows there's a connection there. Shortly after the song was recorded, her mother passed away.

This video was taken during an interview on NWCZ Radio - promoting my new album in 2014 at the time. The album itself features rich harmonies, nylon-string guitar and ukulele. This radio performance is a very stripped down version, reworked after I had heard that she passed away. Slowed down slightly, it fit the mood of the song.

Although the video quality is not that good, the audio was recorded directly from the radio broadcast. I hope you enjoy it. The original album recording is available on iTunes, Amazon, Spotify, and GooglePlay.
