Toby Keith, less than five months till death, sings Don't Let the Old Man In.

It's hard for me to separate a person's politics from his talent (Eric Clapton is ruined for me) but I just heard this song for the first time and it speaks to me as I try to forget my age.

I'd forgotten they became good friends from their first meeting/interview. Thank you for posting this moving video. (The woman tearing up, they cut to her twice,I'm pretty sure is Toby's wife (widow) and makes it even more poignant. )
