Eddy made the world go away. My grand father loved his music.

Rest in peace Eddy. Sing a tune to my Grandpa, okay?

When my granddad died 'Make the World Go Away' was being played all the time on the radio. I remember being in the hospital and hearing the song on the radio. My grandddad, who was in absolute misery from leukemia, made everyone hush whenever the song came on. I took it to mean that he wanted the world to go away...to die. I was just a kid but I still remember that and it was years before I could hear that song without tearing up.

RIP Eddy Arnold. the Tennessee Plow boy was the real deal. I sttill love his music.
