Former frontman and lead vocalist for the band Smash Mouth, Steve Harwell, is reported to be in hospice care for liver failure, reported to be end stage and this may be his final days.

Prayers go out to Steve's family, friends, former bandmates, and fans, hope however much time he has left is as comfortable as possible.

That's crazy. He's not even 60.

Steve has passed to heaven this morning, may his work be remembered and may he now rest well.

Gonna pump some "Why Can't We Be Friends" and "Walking On The Sun" through the house now.....

Now these lyrics from "Walking On the Sun" come to mind.

"It ain't no joke when a mama's handkerchief is soaked with her tears because her baby's life has been revoked"

They're among the best lyrics to a song I've ever heard.

R.I.P. Steve Harwell.

R.I.P. Steve Harwell

[KROW]

Damn, that's immensely tragic. It's unfortunate he couldn't conquer his demons. May he R.I.P.

Now these lyrics from "Walking On the Sun" come to mind.

"It ain't no joke when a mama's handkerchief is soaked with her tears because her baby's life has been revoked"

They're among the best lyrics to a song I've ever heard.

Their song, "Waste" comes more to my mind.

I'm looking at my watch,
And all the time that's been stolen
When I was carrying you,
It seems I've tripped and I've fallen

Smash Mouth was such a big part of growing up for me. Listened to a lot of radio back then before cell phones and internet were easily accessible.

He was so young, too. :(
