Okay, Dan. I really like "Anything For Love". It's the theme song for a screenplay I'm writing. But "Affair on Eighth Avenue" will do just fine for this fantasy concert. I'll make that substitution.

And Char, alas, I haven't had the pleasure of hearing "Farewell to Nova Scotia" although I would dearly love to hear it. I have, however, been told by many people that it is a BEAUTIFUL song.

And I must add one more to my list. "Go My Way" and it would have to be dedicated to Janice. She beat me about the head and shoulders for not including it in mylist and then asked me to write this, by the way. LOL!

"Love and maple syrup
go together like the
sticky winds of winter
when they meet....
If you go into the forest
Gaze up through the trees
The sky is white.
You can understand
What makes the forest
Greet the man
Like a mother's only
child ..."

Actully, I didn't intend for you to come back here and post it. LOL, I was just surprised that you didn't think of your ol'cyberpal, Janice, and have Gord dedicate her favorite song, "Go My Way" to her in your dream concert http://www.corfid.com/ubb/rolleyes.gif

Leslie et al,
Farewell to Nova Scotia is a wonderful anthem to a gorgeous province. Any time I have heard it it always elicits a tear or two. The audience claps and sings along and it is such a Canadian thing. Where Alberta Bound has a destination, Farewell to Nova Scotia is a sad goodbye.
it is lovely.

Many great ideas here. It was fun to read and imagine them all.
Florian: re Pussywillows, Cattails, I have always seen it as a collection of images of the seasons,spring summer fall winter. Really a beautiful song that I can't get enough of. Also, 11 minutes of CRT. Count me in!!!!

Frank v, I agree with you about Hiway Songs and it's powerful ending. "But heading north across that line is the only time I'm flying." I can readily relate to Gord's feelings about going "home".

'Farewell to Nova Scotia':

Wes, please correct me if I'm wrong, but did you once write this was on top of your list of songs you'd like to hear again?

What am I missing?
I haven't heard this song.
Has it been released?
I thought I had every song Gord released.

Help...!

The above post went into a second page. Instead of following Florian's previous post.
To avoid confusion the song I am refering to is "Nova Scotia".
