I like "Songs of Love" better than "Lovesongs."

I have ideas for a cover, but no idea how to use them.

I think it would be cool to have a cover that includes Gord at different ages/stages in his career...and along with that, something along the lines of "love is timeless" (just like our man GL is timeless). I think this would be appropriate because the songs to be included on the CD are from many different decades, and I would love to see a clever depiction of Gord through the years. Also, I LOVE the idea of the Canadian maple leaf subtly used as a shadowy background or border. I am also envisioning nature...mountains, trees, a serene lake, etc... I think Gord would like that.

Anyway, just some of my ideas...
