All I have to do is dream

This Glen Campbell song continues, through the years, to be among my fave list. Hits like "Rhinestone Cowboy" and "Wichita Lineman" are immortal.

Campbell was diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease in 2011.

The Country Music Hall of Fame member  is out with the video for the final song he'll ever record -- "I'm Not Gonna Miss You." It was recorded in 2013 with producer Julian Raymond.
"I'm still here but yet I'm gone/ I don't play guitar or sing my songs," the tune begins as it details his struggles with the disease.

In his own words: "I just take it as it comes, you know. I know that I have a problem with that (forgetfulness), but it doesn't bother me."
