Next to The Weight, the Band's Arcandian Driftwood has to be included.Great choice in my books.
Although The Weight is their best known song, I love this one by The Band. It's not the album version but it's great watching them perform live.
I guess that I confused them with Toronto's Lighthouse---One Fine Morning.Edison Lighthouse were from the UK.
In that case there shouldn't be an apostrophe before the 69 which clearly implies the year 1969.Summer of "69 should be the favourite of all terbites as the "69" does not refer to the year (Adams was only 9 years old in 1969) but to the sexual position.
“It’s a very simple song about looking back on the summertime and making love,” Adams said. “For me, the ’69 was a metaphor for making love, not about the year.
It's Acadian Driftwood, and it's about the French settlers moved from the Maritimes, (L'Acadie), after England defeated France in the French and Indian Wars, 1755-64. Many were moved to Louisiana, which was still French territory until 1803. The term Cajun is derived from Acadian.Correction misspelled Arcadian Driftwood. Also, although she was not my favourite singer, Anne Murray's Snowbird written by Canadian Gene MacLellan and his own hit, The Call. However, as a huge fan of Gord Lightfoot which I have accumulated most of his records over the years, Me And Bobby McGee, written by Kris Kristofferson should be included and as I have mentioned before Lightfoot's own song and the saddest song ever IMO, The Last Time I Saw Her Face, (about the passing of his mother) was such an emotional song, also.
