Sent to HH via email: A mash-up tribute to the late Heath Ledger, featuring Gustavo Santaolalla's 'The Wings' vs Charlene's 'I've Never Been To Me' as imagined by Phil RetroSpector.

It's heartbreaking and beautiful. I had been holding together, until I saw this and began sobbing uncontrollably.

it's a strange combonation but its not bad.

I can't even hear "The Wings" without breaking down. This is another beautiful tribute. Heath IS loved by so many.
Thanks for sharing this.

I'm at work right now. I shouldn't have watched it right now .
It's beautiful. Thank you

I can absolutely see why... Lovely! Santaolalla's film score must be one of the most perfect film scores ever composed. Just hearing it gets me every time.

Thanks Phyllis!

beautifully done.

Sometimes we find ourselves lost for words & it's hard to express exactly what we feel,
I felt like this when I heard the tragic news about Heath. I was thinking about his all too short but brilliant life, his family and loved ones... and then it just sort of happened in my little bedroom studio. Thanks for allowing me to share this musical tribute with you all. God bless.

I love the song, The Wings. It was always hard for me even before. But now it's excruciating. I used to sing "I've Never Been to Me." back when it first came out. (Yeah, I'm THAT generation. LOL)

If it helps anyone's healing, I do believe that Heath was one of the few people who actually HAD been to himself. Knew himself, and was faithful to himself. That's one of the things that made him special. He was true.



I know exactly what you mean . . .

and sometimes we don't know exactly why we choose the outlet, music, etc that we do, only that it hits us as right at that exact moment that we need to express something.


Thank you for making it and sharing it. It's beautiful.

Thank you, it´s beautifully made and deeply moving

Sad and beautiful at that same time. Its still so hard to believe!
