Yesterday grand ripoff (the Grimm reaper) took a soul that I really wish he did not reap! Though Brad Arnold was suffering from cancer, he lost his battle with the dreaded c -word, meaning cancer, just yesterday. Though I don’t know the ETD: the time of death, this was rather annoying to hear about from my friend while doing a join blog with her. That being said I had listened to 3 doors down though I would listen to them with a heavy heart! Their best song kryptonite, came out the year 2000 around the same time papa roach’s masterpiece came out for the first time: Last resort! That being said I found this rather upsetting that such a great and gifted man and guitarist would go so suddenly!
That said, the band was a great band, and helped me cope with being bullied for the first time in the 5th grade, though I started to listening to papa roach and also later on Sean Paul and missy elliot to help me when the bullying got too severe for me to handle. That being said music was my fantasy world and my escape. It helped me in ways that my beloved books could not help me with though it was the main reason why I am not in jail, dead or in the mental hospital. This is the power of music that it could help you with the 99+ problems that life gives you.
Well, I took a walk around the world to ease my troubled mindI left my body lying somewhere in the sands of timeBut I watched the world float to the dark side of the moonI feel there's nothing I can do, yeah
I watched the world float to the dark side of the moonAfter all I knew, it had to be something to do with youI really don't mind what happens now and thenAs long as you'll be my friend at the end
If I go crazy, then will you still call me Superman?If I'm alive and well, will you be there and holding my hand?I'll keep you by my side with my superhuman mightKryptonite
That being said I the “if I go crazy then will you still call me super man?
If I am alive and well, will you be there and holding my hand?
This song was also helpful as I do have a troubled mind even as an 11 year old, that being said i was able to escape into the lyrics, though he is gone to the spirit world, and he continues to live on in his spiritual and special way, his gifts and music that he had to offer us will live on with us until the sun becomes a red giant or red supergiant. This time around the same time that this masterpiece of a song came out, I was also reading my father’s astronomy and stargazing 🔭 text books that were university level that I was able to understand and enjoy! Though I could read every mucking day and a good book does come a dollar a dozen (sometimes), a nice sound and classical song like that will only come once every life time, which would be about 80 to 90 to 100 years depending on the persons life and genetics! He died at 47 years old, still a baby in my opinion, this is a great loss to the world and the music community. I still say this is one of the songs that got me singing and playing guitar, even though I was 30 when I started to play guitar. He is a royal gift and he will be missed seriously though. I just hope to hear that one day they will find a cure for this evil disease and we can all live the full hundred years or so! So respectfully and sadly I give you the song that started me to sing and collect instruments of music! That being, kryptonite!
Brad Arnold, you will be missed and will be an inspiration to many musicians, like me. That being said rest easy now my friend.
