And to my Grandpa, who passed away some time ago. This song actually got it’s start after my Grandpa’s passing and I came back to it after Alexi passed away ‘cos I felt that I had to ‘play my feelings out ‘ somehow". "Alexi and I weren’t the closest friends but every time we met we always had such a great time. Whether it was playing on each of other’s albums, doing guitar clinics or playing occasional live shows or just hanging out. He was one of the most caring, humble and nicest guys I’ve ever met and it feels so unfair that he isn’t with us anymore. And he was one of the best guitar players.
