Hello! I'm Gail Nobles. Welcome to Spoken In Words. Today's topic: The Memorial Song. I think about the song by Diana Ross Missing You recorded for her 1984 album swept away. The song was written composed and produced by Lionel Richie as a tribute to Marvin Gaye. It is a memorial song.

Many have gone before and after Marvin and Diana’s song brings back many memories of those that are not here. Sometimes I feel like they are near. Their voices, music, and songs make us carry on. But sometimes there is only one song and that's The Memorial Song. My soul cries out that I'm missing you with loved ones locked in my heart. Sometimes I'm blue singing the memorial song.
