![]() If like myself, you feel overwhelmed by bad news, inhospitable weather, the passing of friends and artists that you admire, unfair public transportation, the breaking down of things we used to depend on… then we must create a better world. Garcia sadly succumbed to drug & health problems, passing away in August of 1995. I still shed a tear when I hear the chorus! The positive energy didn’t last very long since the deluge of new Dead fans created all sorts of problems when the band continued touring. The chorus of “I will get by”, “I will survive” & “We will survive”, sung triumphantly by Jerry gave hope and inspiration to Dead fans around the world. He didn’t and the Dead resumed touring the following year, only to have the one and only big hit. Strange timing?!? The previous year, Jerry Garcia, collapsed after a concert in DC and slipped into a diabetic coma. The video for the song was pretty hilarious (check it out) and was played endlessly on MTV. This song was an actual hit for the Grateful Dead, getting them into the top 10, something the band never pursued or really cared about.
