In the radio show he did with Warren Zevon back in 1976 he played this song in the radio studio, and said that the verse about going to his doctor down at the hospital who said he looked 45, not 27 , was written by Glenn Frey of the Eagles, Jackson's buddy. |

Achingly beautiful song. And if you want to hear something great, go to the link below and listen to Jackson sing the song live sitting a piano in a 1976 radio show interview he did with his late great buddy Warren Zevon. A great recording of songs by both of these great songwriters. https://archive.org/details/wz1976-12-08.sbeok.flac16

For an interesting comparison, listen to the song by Jackson's good friend, the late great Warren Zevon, Hasten Down the Wind. Warren was a little more concise than Jackson was, but no less eloquent a songwriter, and Hasten Down the Wind is a great companion piece about the painful end of a relationship where the parties just drift apart and can't recapture what they had, but can't figure out why it isn't working any more. And if you really want to get the emotion in the song, go to archive.org and go to the Zevon archive and listen to the version in the 1976 WMMR radio show interview where he sits at a piano and plays solo. |
