The 81-year-old Rhinestone Cowboy is in the final stages of Alzheimer's disease, and this new set of songs is his goodbye gift to the world. The song was a top 10 Adult Contemporary hit for Linda Ronstadt in 1990, but it turns out Campbell has his own history with the melancholy tune, reports Rolling Stone.
The song's writer, Jimmy Webb, said, "Glen and I used to play that song all the time. We played it in dressing rooms, hotels, we played it over at his house, we played it at my house. He always loved that song. I heard 'Adios' this morning and my wife and I both broke down and cried all over this hotel room. It's the first time we ever heard it."
Campbell's version of the tune was recorded after his 2011-2012 Goodbye Tour and chronicled in the Oscar-nominated 2014 documentary Glen Campbell � I'll Be Me. Listen to "Adios"

Clark was the only fatality. Seven others were injured, reports the San Diego Tribune. The mother of three had only been at the party for 20 minutes before she was shot.
Cannon posted a childhood photo with the victim and shared his pain, 'My heart hurts with great sadness tonight, I just learned that the one life lost in the senseless and tragic mass shooting in San Diego was my childhood friend, who was more like family, Miss Monique Clark. Such a beautiful spirit with an infectious smile."
He went on, saying he had 'nothing but wonderful memories of" Clark who he called an 'angel." 'Tears can't express the pain and shock," he continued. 'A mother of three, a sister, a daughter, a cousin, a friend and a Queen' Rest in Paradise." Read more

"Now if I keep my eyes closed he looks just like you. But he'll never stay, they never do," she sings on the new track. During a recent interview, Halsey revealed the entire album was inspired by a "prolonged, toxic" breakup and sprinkled with Romeo + Juliet imagery.
"I was so obsessed with [Baz Luhrmann's] Romeo + Juliet and I didn't make the correlation [that] I loved the film because of what was happening in my real life," Halsey explained in an interview with Zane Lowe and Luhrmann, who directed the 1996 film. "One day as I was getting to the rising action of the record -- the moment where I'm realizing the love is doomed, this like forsaken kind of thing -- I realized that that's why I was so obsessed with the [movie]. Because I felt like I was living it." Watch the song and interview with Halsey and Luhrmann

Guitarist Ed O'Brien says "Lift" could've changed the band's entire trajectory if it'd appeared on OK Computer. ''Lift' is a funny song," O'Brien told BBC 6 Music. 'We played that live with Alanis Morissette, and it was a really interesting song because the audience, suddenly you'd see them get up and start grooving. It had this kind of infectiousness about it. It was a big, anthemic song. If that song had been on that album, it would have taken us to a different place, and we'd have probably sold a lot more records if we'd done it right, and everyone was saying this."
But Radiohead didn't feel prepared for the song's broad appeal. Instead, it sat alongside "True Love Waits" as one of the band's most important never-released (until recently) songs. O'Brien says their prudent decision to hold off on "Lift" paid off.
"I think we kind of subconsciously killed it because if OK Computer had been like a Jagged Little Pill, like Alanis Morissette, it would have killed us. But 'Lift' probably had the potential, if we'd done it right, it just had this magic about it. And we didn't do a good version because when we got to the studio and did it on that record it was a bit like having a gun to your head, it felt like so much pressure."
