I have mixed feelings on all of this.

I have mixed opinions on the poor health of Smashmouth’s lead singer even though I grew up on his music (and, more specifically, this song). On one hand, I don’t want anyone to see this as some kind of opportunity to make fun of the lead singer for his alcoholism leading up to this, or blame him for his own death on down the line… even if that “on down the line” may only be a matter of days from now. But I’ve heard about the concerts he insisted happen during the worst part of COVID, the Nazi salutes that he’s actually given, and that was apparently just him getting started. Once all of this… stops being talked about, I will be thankful.
