This song has the same spirit as "Forever Autumn" the song Justin Hayworth recorded for the album "War of the Worlds." Both Gordon and Justin usually only record their own songs but those two songs sound like they penned them themselves. "My Love For You" is one of those songs I don't hear often, but always brings a tear to my eye. Just, beautiful!
I bought the DVD and don't have a player, thought I was going to be able to play it on my computer but says I need a decoder...sigh I will get to see it..have all his albums and wanted to see this video..wish I could get to see him in concert...I have loved his music since I was 12 years old..back in 66..he's always been my very favorite singer
I remember a buddy of mine laying down infront of his TV with a little cassette recorder copying this song from its Showtime presentation. The recording was scratchy as hell, but cherished. Thanks for the post.
Thanks! I'ver hunted this and was hunting it when I came across your posting-heard it in the movie-couldn't remember the title-but was certain it was Gordon. I echo larriviere1961-you made my day
I first heard this song on the movie. I researched it only to find it was never recorded for release on an album. Don't know why. It is one of his most beautiful songs....and he has many. He didn't write it but suggested it for the movie. I can't remember if he played the piano in the song but if I'm not mistaken, he learned the piano first. I rented the movie from Netflix and recorded the song onto my cell phone. It was all I had till you posted this. Thank you. You made my day. Long live Gord!
My dad attempted to record this song from the movie so he could have it played at his memorial service when he died. Unfortunately we were not able to find the tape. My dad loved people and I saw the love in his eyes he had for my mom when he heard this song. I miss my dad.
hello eeanor and yodhe and all rs ago and never forgot the song. At that time the internett as you know was not like today. I have searched for this song for many years. I am so gratefull! To see and hear it now. itbrings tears to me too.
Two days in a row, Encore channel( a western movie channel) showed the movie Harry Tracy starring Bruce Dern, and this song is played towards the end... it did really caught my attention.I love it... it's a beautiful song!!!
His other songs featuring piano include That Same Old Obsession (on Old Dan's Records) and Fine As Fine Can Be (on Cold on the Shoulder). I perform about 100 of his songs on piano!

crying, remembering . . . by 1983 Gord's popularity was fading, but this should have been released as a single.

Written by Les Pouliot, not Gord. Nevertheless, he's made it his own....

Wow! I can't believe someone found this song. Very nice. Great movie, too. Probably Bruce Dern's most overlooked film.
