I Recently got a CD via ebay called "Remember Me" and among some live tracks is a song called "Corner of the House". Has anyone any information on this? I've never heard of it before, did Gord write it? It's a very good song, reminds me a little of "Is There Anyone Home" from "Sundown".

It's really "Nighttime" - one of the new songs Gord tried out during his live concerts a year or so ago.

The guy didn't know the title and just took a line from the song "...in the corner of the house..."

Thanks suzi, is this a song gord wrote himself, or a cover? It cetainly sounds like a lightfoot original!

He wrote it. He played three new original songs during his 2001 tour. Those songs were "Nighttime", "Shellfish" and "The No Hotel".

I Particularly like "Two Crazy Kids" and "Face of a Thousand People". Not sure about "Daisy Doo" though!
