If I had 20 minutes with Gordon Lightfoot, what I would really like to ask him about is what he was thinking of with when he wrote some of his lyrics. That's probably not a polite thing to do but that's what I would really like to know.
I know one thing I would NEVER ask him even if I had met him 20 times. "Do you remember me?" I've seen and heard people say that to famous people and it's almost funny to watch the mixture of expressions that pass over the person's face wondering if they should really know them or not. I'd never want to do that to someone.
