Way to go Caludia! X - <--Big kiss for that one! :D LOL!

Then I take it it's your #1 favorite like it is on my list of 150 favorites? :D The song is just super-cool to me.

Yes, this truly is one great song and I could listen to it in an endless loop - together with Shellfish.

"Thinking of things to do
Thinking of things to say
Thinking of things divine
find a bottom line"

...this song touches my heartstrings every time I listen to it, along with some other on that CD but this is my favorite. I don't know where it would be on my best of 150, certainly at least in the top 5

I wish he would play it in concert. I wonder why he only seems to do 'Clouds of Loneliness'. I like that one too but there are so many other wonderful songs on his lastest Album.

I think that is one of the most honest and humorous lines Gord ever wrote.

but no customer would come to her cause she did hair with a pressure cook-er!" :D

With 3 mystery lyrics to guess, I had to jump in:

Borderstone - IF CHILDREN HAD WINGS

Kathy No 4 - LINDA [I think]
LONG WAY BACK HOME [I know]

How about: I was only trying to get by with some
of life's amenities. Well, nothing's
free.
