Graham Nash

Veteran singer-songwriter's first album in seven years surveys life (and death) from a personal lens.

The 81-year-old says there are better musicians with less success, leading him to ask, "Why me?"

Track appears on his upcoming album 'Now.'

He wrote "I Watched It All Come Down" to express his regret they didn't do more together.

LP marks his first record of original material in seven years.

Although they weren't able to fully reconnect, late singer-songwriter's efforts were "very significant."

"The truth is, I do miss David," singer says of former bandmate.

"Humanity is either f---ed or glorious, and there's not a lot of in between."

'Graham Nash: Live' arrives May 6.

Songwriter previews his book 'A Life in Focus' and teases upcoming albums.
