Just one favorite 'eh? I don't think it's possible (at least for me). So I'll arrange my top 5 in no particular order. Carefree Highway, If you could read my mind, Sundown, The wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald and Cotton Jenny. Ok, now all you deep thinkers and "superfans" are going to rail on me for choosing the biggest hits. Oh well, I like what I like...and I can't list another 15 songs or this post would be lengthy and boring. I recently returned back from the middle east while serving with the USAF. I was playing Gord on the computer and a couple of the young guys walked in and started bugging "Pops" about what he was listening to. I played the first 3 on my list and instantly converted a few new fans. Thats the power of this great songwriter. The ability to reach every age group by great lyrics and catchy tunes. My teenage kids have always enjoyed GL (of course they had to listen while I drove the car, ha,ha,ha). I'm going to my first GL concert this year and can't wait! Hopefully I'll post a first timers reaction to the experience. Thanks all for putting up with this fan. JGT from MI, USA
