Really glad you enjoyed this one Annie ! It is indeed a good one, but thanks should really be given to Tom for the video and of course Gord for writting and singing it so well with that great 70's voice.

"What a voice eh Nightingale"!!!

Yes, indeed!
This really is such a beautiful song...such a wonderful melody and he sings with such emotion
He is such a gifted songwriter that he takes my breath away sometimes...amazing

Yes, I will go thank Tom personally for this one.

If only I could count the times he has taken my breath away, growing up where for me it was all Lightfoot, I would probably have no more breath to take away.

Jesse Joe, maybe we will keel over one of these days...lol. Death by Gord rather than death by chocolate

Ohhh...Elvis! Good choice for that song, eh? (she says with her best Canadian accent
I like Same old Loverman....good song!

'Same Old Loverman' is another great one from "Summer Side Of Life." Wait till you hear "Love & Maple Syrup" done by Gord, again from "SSOL" But then again maybe you wont like it ??? Your starting to sound 'Canadian' Nightingale !

Those are some nice images of Gordon. He really is a beautiful man, inside and out
I like this song a lot. It says so much about his life. He must have had his days when he wondered if it was all worth it.

Love and Maple Syrup...I bet I will like it. I can't say there are many Lightfoot songs that I don't like
Of course, I haven't heard Canary Yellow Canoe yet either...lol
