I downloaded "Hallelujah" and "Satisfied Mind" from Kazaa. To be honest, I couldn't even finish listening to "Hallelujah". Just not my cup of tea I suppose. "Satisfied Mind", I think has the ability to grow on you if you give it the chance. I liked the lyrics. But, I need more than just lyrics!! I want a catchy melody, which blues style songs sometimes don't have. It just got too monotonous for me. I can understand how all of you really love his music, I just seem to have different tastes. I'll try listening to "Satisfied Mind" a couple more times to see if I change my mind. Interesting story though. Drowned himself while singing? That's a helluva way to go.
