Marion Davidson passed away in October 2005 at the fine and respectable age of 83 after a short battle with leukemia. I'm thanking you for your version of Sonny's Dream....the beautiful Newfie folk melody which sustained her through her last six months of life. Between "Sonny", and anything by Neil Young, she had those of us who loved her hooked on music as she trucked along.
Ron Hynes, the writer of this song (and still has the best version btw) hails from Ferryland, Nfld. I know him personally. His mother lives across the street from me.

I know it's a Newfoundland tune, but this song reminds me of trips to Halifax NS. GOOD TIMES!

Funny how you can hate a song so much growing up. Now that I've been away for so long this song just gets my heart pumping.
