    Gordon lived in Canada despite his wealth and ability to live anywhere and that further endears him to us.

    Lightfoot was certainly one of Canada's greatest and most loved exports. I loved his effortless musical weaving of stories. My late mother (🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿), my late wife (🇨🇦), my children (🇨🇦🇬🇧🇦🇺🇰🇪), and even their sons enjoyed and continue to enjoy his talents. Few artists can claim to have had fans across four generations.

    I remember when John Prine passed it was so sad and then I thought of all that music he left us. I feel the same way about Gordon Lightfoot, his music will always be here. Condolences to his family and friends. What an incredible life he had!

    Be proud to sing about Canada! I love that! Federal Canadian politics has really soured that for me, so glad this was said in this video.

    I went on a Caribbean vacation and Kobe Bryant died. I went to Hawaii and Gordon Lightfoot died. I wonder if famous people should pay me to not go on beach vacations?
