  • Bob Seger sings on this. Arnold explained how this happened to Hip Online: "We were in Nashville recording and he was working across the hall on a project and we got to talking to him. He was a super cool guy and a freaking legend. I love Bob Seger. I was to chicken to ask him to sing on the record so I had our manager go and ask him. So he took it over to him and he came back two days later and said he'd sing on it. I'm probably more proud of that then meeting the president."

  • Barb from NebraskaI love this song and Bob Seger! I had a new perspective of the song tonight that I feel makes it even better than before. While singing with it today it came to me that this would make an excellent Christian song as well!!! One of the best!
  • Oliver from Atlanta, Gathis is an amazing song. i like the acoustic version even better then the one seventeen days.
