He Speaks The Truth! | Jim Croce - I Got A Name | REACTION/REVIEW

I've got a Name was Jim's last studio album and this song was set to be released as a single the day after Jim died in the plane crash...RIP

A true legend lost way too soon.

I do not understand people who won't subscribe, my fine dude. I subscribe. It costs nothing and it shows my love. I totally love you, man. You always make me happy 🥰

On Thursday night, September 20, 1973 and just a day before the single for “I Got A Name” was released, Jim Croce and five other people were taking off in a chartered plane from Natchitoches, Louisiana after finishing a concert there an hour earlier. They were headed to Sherman,Texas for the next stop on the tour, a concert at Austin College. Tragically, the plane crashed into a tree on takeoff, killing all six people onboard- the pilot, two of Croce’s managers, a comedian, and one of Jim’s band members. The accident was later ruled to have been caused by pilot error, taking off downwind into severe darkness and fog. Jim was just 30 years old.

Such a shame we lost him so young, his music was amazing ~ 💜

The bass playing on this song is sooo good.

Its about how we ALL matter, no matter how big or small....we are ALL part of Gods plan, which is perfect!!!❤❤❤

Great song! Jim Croce was a unique storyteller & ballad singer. He touches your soul. He had a lot of great hits in his short career. "Workin' At The Car Wash Blues," "I'll Have To Say I Love You In A Song", "Roller Derby Queen", "Rapid Roy", "Lover's Cross" etc.

Beautiful song and beautiful reaction!

"Operator" is probably my favorite Jim Croce song.

Love this song! Never get tired of it!

Such a beautiful reaction

Jim didn't write this song, but he certainly sang it with enough conviction to make everybody believe that he did. It's a very inspiring song. It was written by Charles Fox (music) and Norman Gimbel (lyrics).

Beautiful song. His music and lyrics were simple but impactful. He was a story teller. Someone who is aware, guess today he would be called mindful. Thank you for reacting to it. Great analysis of the lyrics too.

Its so amazing you actually listen to the songs, thank you dear sir.

Rest in Peace Mr. Jim Croce ❤

Hey Biz, I’m 64 yrs old and heard this song thousands of times and new the words, but as you explained it I thought I was at Church, thank you for reacting to this!

I have been listening to Jim Croce since I was a small child. He was my father's favorite artist. My brothers & I have passed our love of him to our children. I loved hearing your insights. It makes me hear it in a deeper way. Thank you!

Lovely. RIP dear man💔
