Ron Sexsmith is my favourite Canadian singer - songwriter - performer because he is wonderfully talented, refreshingly modest, and has perseverance out the yin yang... go Ron... just bought Exit Strategy for a Soul - beautiful!! and I got Cobblestone Runway with bonus CD of his first songs recorded Grand Opera Lane - really rockin'... go buy his CDs now!!!
I was in Cuba 3 years ago and it was full of Canadians, not a bad thing mind, very nice people. This vocal style is so unique and the lyrics are pure poetry. Ron actually reminds me of Buddy Holly in that a lot of his music is very similar, yet those subtle changes he makes in his chord structures, allow him to continually re-invent new masterpieces, fantastic.
I'm a huge Bruce Cockburn fan and I always thought that no one can match the almightly Bruce in writing beautiful though-provoking songs. Now I am starting to discover Ron. Looks like we have another great Canadian song writer.
Fantastic stuff, thanks so much for posting. Heard the acoustic version of this track on Jonathan Ross's Radio 2 show this morning, and I'm so glad there's an acoustic version up here - I didn't think I'd ever find a RS song that I liked much more than 'Tell me Again', but this one's easily up there with it! Just lovely.
It really takes you in. Ron sings with real meaning. Loving this .
