Which Gord song do you think is the hardest to sing(for whatever reason)?
I am totally new to this forum - although I read it every day. I just had to post a reply to this question 'cause I often marvel at how sophisticated and demanding some of GL's songs are. Songs like Now and Then, Why Should I Feel Blue?, or Too Late For Prayin' present real vocal, lyrical, and rhythmic challenges. It takes a consummate artist to perform a song like Too Late For Prayin' and connect with an audience -- there is so much there.

This is my first - ever - of posting to a forum. Thanks for listening !
