When Jim Croce died, the principal in my high school announced it on the PA system and we had a minute of silence. Those were the times I remember. RIP Mr. Croce.

@elijahFree2000 Год назад

Every time I hear a Jim Croce song, especially this one, I remember the real grief most of us felt when we heard he died almost 50 years ago.

@alisonmontana8895 Месяц назад

We weren't allowed to listen to modern music. But I was walking through the kitchen when they announced it on the news radio my mom was listening to. I busted out crying, and she knew I had been listening to music.

A true national treasure. I don’t know nobody that doesn’t dig Jim! He was the real deal. Salt of this American soil. A rambler, a dreamer, a poet, a blue collar man, a musician, an entertainer. Jim Croce forever.

@steveturner3999 Год назад

I don’t know of anyone who didn’t love Jim Croce when they first heard him. He could entertain you joyfully with the likes of "Bad, Bad Leroy Brown" or "You Don’t Mess Around With Jim" and then put a vise grip on your soul with "Operator".

So true

@sallyweinreich5769 Год назад

In 1973 in September I was in 11th grade in high school. I was sitting out front in my boyfriends road runner when I heard on the radio that Jim Croce was killed in an airplane accident. This song will forever remind me of my father, who passed away almost 4 years ago I’m 66 years old now This was a great choice Jim Croce was a great musical talent last too soon 😢😢😢

@karenblack2869 Год назад

I was a freshman that year. I remember it and the profound sadness I felt.

@sarahholahan3439 8 месяцев назад

My mother got me a Jim Croce songbook/chord-book for my 16th birthday (in 1994) when I was learning to play guitar, and she wrote in the front cover "To Sarah - because I loved him too!" I had no idea that he had passed before I was born, and I was inconsolable for the rest of the day. I eventually learned those songs, though. I sang this one at a voice recital a year later, and dedicated it to my own dad. Jim Croce has always had a place in my heart. I'd love to be able to see AJ and his band play Jim's music someday!

Croce is one of those few artists that are embraced by everyone from every genre - he's folk, he's alternative, he's country, he's rock, older people like him, younger people... too bad he was lost so soon.

@evanpenn1 Год назад

Time in a bottle, life passing him by....the tinge of melancholy and fear of not having enough time. And then it tragically came to pass. It always hits me. Its sad but beautiful. Be grateful for every day.

@ApricotRse Год назад

In two more days on September 20, we will commemorate the 50th anniversary of the plane crash that killed Jim and everyone else on board. I was 11 years old when Jim died and already a fan. His death had a profound effect on me. Rare has been the month, if not week, since then over all this time that I've not heard a Jim Croce song. For something light hearted, I recommend you react to "Roller Derby Queen" or "Five Short Minutes". My God, where did 50 years go....

@donwomick3413 11 месяцев назад

You can see Croce on Croce while on tour now. It’s Jim’s son and his band is fantastic. My brother in law plays with him and they are a fun show.

It was the first month of eighth grade. We're top dogs of K-8 school. Out of nowhere, we find out Jim Croce died. The next DAY, this song came out on the radio. It super emphasized the carpe diem vibe, fresh on the heels of the bad news.

@gailables900 Год назад

It was 9th grade for me. Listening again just now brought chills and tears.

@chrisjohnson1308 Год назад

I never cease to be amazed by how thoroughly you imbed yourself in the music you listen to, and how much you remember, both musically and lyrically, when they’re done. These are the songs of my youth, and I am both impressed and touched by how sincerely you honor them. Thank you! 💕

@damonhines8187 Год назад

He's got so many great songs, for such a tragically curtailed career; this is the one I learned once upon a time, '77-78. 😢❤❤❤😊

Jim Croce was a troubadour, something in his songs resonated with everyone. One of my favorites is “ Roller Derby Queen” a great dive bar song

@cherylhurst7093 Год назад

I cry when I hear this song especially when thinking about the day I heard Jim Croce died. He was so great at song writing. I was only 7 when he passed away and was just learning about death after losing a pet. I think about how he talked about life not passing him by. He definitely taught me that life on this earth is precious and fleeting. Live it to the full.

@otisdylan9532 Год назад

This is one of my favorite Croce songs, right after "Operator". It was the 1st Croce single to be released after he died, and in that context, the line "moving ahead so life won't pass me by" hit me hard at the time. As far as I'm concerned, you've now heard all of Croce's best songs, but I'm sure you'll want to hear more at some point. "I'll Have to Say I Love You in a Song" is the most popular of his remaining songs, but I prefer "One Less Set of Footsteps".

Choosing this song today is timely as we're two days from the tragic day in 1973 when Jim Croce died on September 20th. This song was the first released from his fifth and final album also named I got a Name. It was released posthumously on December 1st 1973.

He even has a denim jacket like Jim had with patches and everything. He even got Jim’s son and wife to sign it along with some other well known musicians.

It was simultaneously sad and awesome and weird to be hearing new great music from someone who had just passed away.

I remember the day he died and like many other's was shocked and heartbroken but his memory lives on in his music and his son's renditions of his music 😊

Gentlemen, if you were to give a reaction to Jim Croce's "Rapid Roy That Stock Car Boy" you will be smilin' the rest of the week. It's an acoustic rocker in praise of a back country dirt track racer in a '57 Chevrolet. Croce is a master story teller and this one is pure fun!

Usually in person, they were a 2 person act. His dependable talented friend on acoustic guitar (solo) was killed with him in the plane crash. He's hardly ever mentioned, but was always there. He also had a son, A.J. Croce who is a musician and recording artist. Around the age of four, he went blind due to horrific physical abuse from his mother's then-boyfriend. A.J. was hospitalized for half a year and was totally blind in both eyes for six years.At age three, Adrian James Croce suffered from a brain tumor which caused blindness. Several years later, partial sight inexplicably returned in one of his eyes.
