One of the album's emotional highlights is the vocal harmony David Crosby and Graham Nash added to the song "Spring Buds." Recalls [Michael's manager] Burgess of the session, contributed by Crosby and Nash as a parting gift to Michael nearly a year after his passing, "The depth of emotion was palpable from the moment they walked into the studio."

Soon after writing "Spring Buds" something about the song inspired Michael to send it to his friends David Crosby and Graham Nash. Though he'd initially offered it as a candidate for a future CSN album, both recall Michael later inviting them to sing with him on his own recording of the song. Almost a year after Michael's death, David and Graham, as a true labor of love, arranged to meet at Jackson Browne's studio in Santa Monica, where they fulfilled Michael's wish b putting their hearts and souls into this exquisite performance. - Torched-LP Liner notes

Spring Buds is the most beautiful leftover-- a song written for Crosby, Stills and Nash, to which Graham Nash and David Crosby added harmony vocals after Hedges' death. A shimmering epitaph. - Thomas Conner
Focusing primarily on his vocal compositions, a number of songs on this new work sound similar to the folk-pop territory explored by Crosby, Stills and Nash. In fact, Crosby and Nash team with Hedges on the plaintive ballad "Spring Buds." ~ Hedges talked about aspiring to a state of being "on fire" with an all-consuming creative life-energy. This spirit of mystical passion is definitely evident on Torched. - Jon Woodhouse

Crosby had turned me onto Michael Hedges. He played me a piece of music, and I said, "Well, that's an interesting band." And he said, "That isn't a band." I said, "What do you mean?"
"That was one person. It was Michael Hedges and he's playing tonight at Universal Theater in Los Angeles." We went down and he blew everybody away! The guy was a genius. His death was such a sad day for me. I wrote a beautiful song about him, it was called "Michael (Hedges Here)." Michael actually opened for me and David a couple times on tour, and David and I sang with him on a record. The song was called "I Carry Your Heart." - Nash

Over some fifteen years of mutual admiration, David and Graham had developed a deep regard for Michael, both artistically and personally, that nearly matched his own reverence for them. They'd had Michael tour with them as an opening act, contribute his guitar playing and songwriting talents to their albums, and appear with them at numerous high-profile benefits.
In turn, they sang with him on his 1990 album Taproot. {i carry your heart.}
Michael often credited David for his early awakening to the idea of altered guitar tunings, and CSN's influence on him was undeniable.

"His flame went out when it was just starting to achieve full burn, and it is a great loss to the world. He was as good at friendship as he was at music and I miss him every day." - Crosby

Spring Buds (Michael Hedges) (4:20)
On the last waked day of winter
On the eve of a fateful thaw
I war imprisoned in frozen pieces
Of heart-broken laws
Then down fell an angel renegade
Her halo read "Morning Star"
Wounded by the doom of a comet tail
She was sealed with a scar
Then a sweet lightning struck
And the earth opened us
Like spring buds
Why she ever fled heaven
And why I would hibernate
Answers why we would meet here
To equal our altered states
(chorus and bridge)
With a sacred heart-shared rhythm
We blossom through the spring
Star of the Morning shines now
On her own two wings

🙏🏻Love one another as I have loved you, says the Lord, alleluia.
🕊️Agape:In theology, agape is the highest form of love, characterized by self-sacrifice, unconditional love, and a desire for the well-being of the other. It is selfless love, which seeks not one's own advantage but only to benefit or share with another.

🗞️🕊️The Holy Spirit, who was able to bring us into harmony, like musical instruments, so that our heartstrings could vibrate in a single melody. …the Greek verb agapáo, which refers to the love that God has for us, to the offering of Himself without reserve and without calculation. We are called to offer God’s love to everyone~this is the hour for love! The heart of the Gospel is the love of God that makes us brothers and sisters. Together, as one people, as brothers and sisters, let us walk towards God and love one another. -Pope Leo XIV Homily·Inauguration Mass ·18May2025
