Jim is, Van is not.

Rooster - Alice In Chains (Layne Staley)

[CommerceComet]

The question seems to imply solo artists and not groups with some members gone. So I'm going with solo artists:

For pop music, George Harrison: What is Life

For country music, Don Williams: Some Broken Hearts Never Mend

For gospel, Keith Green: There Is a Redeemer

For those unfamiliar, start with “Change”

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yn1WbBaWTdc

I don’t feel the suns comin’ out today
its staying in, its gonna find another way.
As I sit here in this misery, I don’t
think I’ll ever see the sun from here.

And oh as I fade away,
they’ll all look at me and say, and they’ll say,
Hey look at him! I’ll never live that way.
But that’s okay
they’re just afraid to change.

When you feel your life ain’t worth living
you’ve got to stand up and
take a look around you then a look way up to the sky.
And when your deepest thoughts are broken,
keep on dreaming boy, cause when you stop dreamin’ it’s time to die.

And as we all play parts of tomorrow,
some ways will work and other ways we’ll play.
But I know we all can’t stay here forever,
so I want to write my words on the face of today.
and then they’ll paint it

And oh as I fade away,
they’ll all look at me and they’ll say,
Hey look at him and where he is these days.
When life is hard, you have to change.

[Fiji Hill]

This is my favorite version of "Hallelujah." The vocal is by Franklyn Baur, a top-notch singer, who is backed by one of the best bands in the business.

Hallelujah--Nat Shilkret & the Victor Orchestra
