Patti Smith, the legendary musician, recently opened up about the profound grief she still feels over her husband’s death through her heartbreaking song “Farewell Reel.”
In a vulnerable Instagram clip from a conversation with Anderson Cooper on his podcast All There Is, Patti became emotional as they listened to the song she wrote after her husband, Fred “Sonic” Smith, passed away in 1994. The lyrics of the song reflect the deep pain and love she still holds for him, with lines like, “Our wild love came from above and wilder still, Is the wind that howls, Like a voice that knows it’s gone, ‘Cause darling, you died, and well, I cried, But I’ll get by, Salute our love, and send you a smile
