Quite possibly the first big surprise passing of 2024.

This one is hard to accept. He was an imposing figure, tough guy type. I liked his music a lot as well.

My agent wrote me that he had submitted this song to him a couple of weeks ago:

My favorite memory of Toby Keith is when I was driving to work and "I wanna talk about me" came on the radio. It was the first time I heard it, and I laughed all the way to the office.'

Thanks for the songs, Toby.
