Greatly Exaggerated
Feb. 18th, 2010 05:39 pmThe Intertubes were a-Twitter this morning with rumors about the death of Canadian folk music legend Gordon Lightfoot. It even made it to the mainstream press.
Tain't so. Gordon's fine.
What are your favorite Lightfoot songs? There are all the obvious ones -- it's not like the guy's not a hit machine -- but I've got a huge warm spot in my heart for "Don Quixote".
(Dammit, I just listened to that performance again, and I'm tearing up. Sometime, it's not gonna be a rumor, and that will hurt. Stay well, Mr. Lightfoot.)
