"On Thursday, the Canadian news media (not to mention the general population of the Twitterverse) was abuzz with apparent news that Mr. Lightfoot, 71, the smooth-voiced singer-songwriter of"Sundown" and “Carefree Highway,” had died while on tour."
A little article that ends knowledgably with
"Mr. Lightfoot, meanwhile, has walked away like a movie star who gets burned in a three-way script, whatever that means."
