Vince Gill – Ain’t It Always That Way

“Ain’t It Always That Way” by Vince Gill is one of those songs that, rather than coming at you with a great boom, enters your heart slowly and stays there long after the last note dies. If you’ve ever thought back on the little ironies in life or the bittersweet quality of love, this song will seem like an old friend who really knows it.

Vince Gill’s gentle, honeyed voice carries us through the well-known highs and lows of life and love. This song is dedicated to all those who have had to confront the bittersweet reality that hopes and plans don’t always turn out the way they had hoped. But isn’t that simply the way life is?

With a genuine and moving performance, Gill expertly captures the complex facets of life’s unpredictable nature. The song seems to be a meditation on those moments when you realize that, believe it or not, the cosmos sometimes arranges things in a humorous way. This song finds its voice during those melancholy, dejected moments when you can’t help but laugh at how ridiculous everything is.

A simple yet heartfelt melody surrounds the lyrics, making it feel warm and inviting on a cold night. Because of the acoustic arrangement and Gill’s sympathetic performance, which seems like he’s speaking to you, the song feels more private and intimate.

What makes “Ain’t It Always That Way” unique is how relatable it is. Everyone has gone through moments in life when something we took for granted slips through their fingers and surprises us. But there’s a certain beauty to that unpredictable quality—a reminder that life is a journey with lots of twists and turns, and that’s okay. Rather than dwell in sorrow, the song subtly suggests the tenacity we all possess, even in the face of misfortune.

In the end, this song is a reminder that, in spite of all of its imperfections and surprises, each minute of life is precious. “Isn’t It Always That Way” offers comfort on the journey, regardless of whether you’re reflecting on missed opportunities, heartbroken relationships, or life’s inequalities.

Tito Jackson, brother of Michael Jackson and co-founder of Jackson 5, dead at 70, sons say

Tito Jackson, brother of the late Michael Jackson and co-founder of the Jackson 5, has died. He was 70 years old.

His family made the stunning announcement Sunday.

“It’s with heavy hearts that we announce that our beloved father, Rock & Roll Hall of Famer Tito Jackson is no longer with us,” Tito’s sons TJ, Taj and Taryll said in a statement on Instagram. “We are shocked, saddened and heartbroken.”

While an official cause of death has yet to be determined, Steve Manning, former Jackson family manager, told Entertainment Tonight, he believed the pop icon died of a heart attack while driving from New Mexico to Oklahoma on Sunday.

Tito, born Toriano Adaryll “Tito” Jackson in October 1953 and the third of 10 children, was the least-heard member of the Jackson 5 as he was a backup singer and played guitar for the group, while his brothers Jackie, Tito, Jermaine, Marlon, and Michael were more prominently featured.

During their time as the Jackson 5, the family produced several No. 1 hits in the 1970s including “ABC,” “I Want You Back,” and “I’ll Be There.” They were inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 1997.

Tito was last seen in Munich, Germany, on September 9, prior to a scheduled performance with his brothers Jackie and Marlon Jackson. The trio have two more performances left on their 2024 tour, however it’s unclear how The Jacksons will handle the upcoming shows.

“Some of you may know him as Tito Jackson from the legendary Jackson 5, some may know him as ‘Coach Tito’ or some know him as ‘Poppa T.’ Nevertheless, he will be missed tremendously. It will forever be ‘Tito Time’ for us. Please remember to do what our father always preached and that is ‘Love One Another.’ We love you Pops,” his sons wrote on their own music group’s Instagram page.

It is devastating to hear the news about Tito Jackson. May he rest in peace, and may his family find comfort in knowing that so many people are thinking of them during this extremely difficult time.
