Sorry, but I disagree. And Gord would disagree too. Remember, he wrote the song during a thunderstorm in July and he includes it in almost every concert. In fact, he generally doesn't tour during the worst of the winter season. SFAWN is one of his very best songs; if you can do it well, it should be high up among your choices.
