On the front cover of the Gords Gold 2 album we see GL standing on the beach. Behind him is the sea. The ocean. And it turns out a good bit of songs on this album have something to to with the ocean in some shape form or fashion. High And Dry deals with pirates and "lovesick sailin", and then there's the Wreck of the Edmund Fitz, a shipwreck song, and in The Pony Man there are the lyrics "And soon we all go 'sailin' into the midnight sky" and "Up to the slip comes a pirate ship".
And in theres "Away you will go sailing in a race among the ruins". And theres Christian Island.
Triangle and Ghosts of Cape Horn are also ship songs.
And then theres Its Worth Believin. In one part of the lyrics theres "Do you like to go walking on the beach".
A considerable number of songs on this album have something to do with the ocean, sailing or ships or something about the water in general and the picture of Gord is in front of the ocean. IS THIS A COINCIDENCE OR AREN'T IT???
