Great song and great playing.

I loved this song since I heard it for the first time. It goes slowly underskin during the listening and, to be frank i judge it the best from the album. I can't better exply but, beyond the meaning or absence of it there's a special feeling and tension in it.Paul

I got to see him live in Canada in the late 60's. It was an event.

I've always loved this song, especially the line "If you find me feeding daisies, please turn my face up to the sky/And leave me be, watching the moon roll by/Whatever it was, you know it was all because/I've been on the town, washing the bullshit down." A song about mortality...and yet there's an optimism about it. Great tune!

Have seen Gord 3 times, once 35 years ago. 2 times in the last 3 years. He's the best songwriter that ever lived IMO. This is my favorite. Thanks, the live ones on the tube aren't really worth listening to.

Fantastic album.
Wow! I was looking for this song just a month ago and couldn't find the original. Now I find that you posted it on my birthday! Nice present, thanks! :)
