I lost a dear friend 2 weeks ago and this was played at his memorial. I can think of no better song for my buddy, there wasn't a dry eye in the whole sanctuary. The Preacher even teared up. It was magical. RIP Donny, you'll be greatly missed and will never be forgotten old friend.

Sam by far one of the best mandolin player that ever wrote a song. Master craftsman.

[carolynmoore]

One of the most well written songs I've heard in a while...
Simply..BeautifuL

First song I heard from Sam Bush and it still gives me the chilles.

Telluride is where we were married, during the 25th annual Telluride Bluegrass Festival, on June 21st, 1998. Every time Sam plays this song, tears of joy come into my eyes! We've been to every festival since then. It's where we celebrate every anniversary! Sam Bush's music is our wedding music!

Cannot help but think of Tony Rice when I hear Sam Bush sing this song now.

[oldwest]

I'm seeing him at the Big Sky Big Grass Festival in Montana in February, and am pumped about the prospect of skiing all day and listening to bluegrass at night. One more performer to check off on my musical "bucket list."

We were riding through the grapevines
When I heard some say your name
Hand on my shoulder, just a little bit older now
And I remember everything

High in Telluride, up on Bridal Veil
Ten thousand feet above the sound
The news came around and sent me to count all my blessings
And to thank you for all the good friends that I've found

Hey, hey, hey
How in the world did we get this far
Hey, hey, hey
Holding tight to the tail of a shooting star
Hey, hey, hey
You're running circles around me
Circles around me now

Was I dreamin', or did this really happen
I can feel the earth below my feet
The world is turning fast and wild, like a little newborn baby child
Who's never known regret or defeat

I am surrounded, tangled in the wire
Drawn up tight to the calling, and the rising frequency
Of the silent smiles and laughter, of those that came before
And the deafening sound of love, falling down on me

[kligonking]

The late Peter Green (founder of Fleetwood Mac ) recommended this song in a telephone interview with music journalist Mark Ellen for the magazine Mojo.

This song always makes me think about Tim Krekle.
