FYI: Gordon Lightfoot died on May 1, 2023. It’s hard to overstate how much that means to Canadian Pop Culture
GordonLightfoot is an institution and an iconic in Canadian music and has been for long enough that I’m surprised in a way to learn that — as of this writing, least — he’s only 84.

Now, given that Gord has released 19 studio albums, 3 live albums, 16 greatest hits compilations (and, implicitly, has had a long enough career to be able to put together 16 greatest hits albums), and 46 singles, I have a lot of songs to choose form here.

I refer, of course of his song about famous nautical disasters.
N-no. Not thatsong about afamous nautical disasters…
