this album is such a powerful piece of art, both in sound and message. downie's storytelling hits hard, and the visuals are stunning.

When I think about him at the end of his life, I think about a guy who overcame every obstacle that he could, to go out on two final tours, one for Man, Machine, Poem, where that band learned 108 songs, and then a month or so later, released Secret Path, followed by a second solo record. Like, I get emotional thinking about it and the people I lost.
