Jason Aldean's 'Help You Remember': A Tribute to Lewy Body Dementia
Jason Aldean's latest album, Songs About Us, includes a poignant and personal track called "Help You Remember," inspired by his uncle and father-in-law's battle with Lewy Body Dementia. Despite some misconceptions, the song is not about love or breakups but rather a heartfelt tribute to those affected by the disease. Aldean shared that the emotional response from listeners who have experienced similar situations has been overwhelming, making the song a therapeutic outlet for him and his family. Co-written with a team of talented songwriters, "Help You Remember" aims to connect with others facing similar challenges, offering comfort and understanding in the face of a devastating illness. Lewy Body Dementia, characterized by the accumulation of abnormal protein deposits in the brain, is a prevalent form of dementia affecting millions of individuals in the United States. Through his music, Aldean hopes to raise awareness and provide solace to those navigating the complexities of neurodegenerative diseases.
