While a book publisher/agent etc. might like the "If You Could Read His Mind" title, I for one find it unimaginative and too obvious and over-used when it comes to Lightfoot and cringe when I see it in the newspaper as a header for an article about him..
Yes agreed about IYCRHM but surely you meant to quote:-
"One Grateful Guy from Orillia,Ontario,Canada"!!

Or just possibly and I simply hate the idea behind this snippet of the lyrics of
My Little Love:-
"I'm a poet and I'm better off dead."
In that mould much betterand more positive would of course be Salute's
"You got a lot more livin' to do
And a lot more lovin' too"
