How appropriate..."Both heartbreaking and comforting, the words to this very early soul classic from 1961 have often been found to come into their own when confronting the death of a loved one." Stand By Me. RIP Ben E. King, you have stood by me on many of my playlists during tough times.

You were able to sing something they related to instantly, because it was part of what you felt. It was part of what you had already traveled through. It's part of the people you were associating with daily. It was all of that.
