"That is amazing."

Who says music cannot also be visual art? And a dramatic play?

Here's a guy who apparently and certainly knew he was dying. So he decides to write a song and a produce a video about it.

I think there are some poets and writers that have written of their own imminent death, but I don't recall it in music anywhere...

Then to combine it with the darkest of visual performance.

Amazing is the least of it.

Also, Warren Zevon recorded the Dylan song "Knockin' on Heavens Door" on his last album when he knew he was dying of cancer.
