Twenty-five years ago this week, British rock group Mike + the Mechanics had a beautiful ballad that reached number one on the charts, "The Living Years." The song's basically about not ironing out differences with a loved one while that person is still alive. (By the way, "Mike" is Mike Rutherford, a founding member of the British supergroup Genesis).
Say it loud, say it clear
You can listen as well as you hear
It's too late when we die
To admit we don't see eye to eye
