She only had 3 strings left and was lying beside the skip when I found her . I'm glad I was there that day. With a new set of strings, she is singing beautifully again. I hadn't really heard of Gordon Lightfoot until I saw that Beach bum movie starring Mathew McConaughey. I should probably listen to more Lightfoot tunes, they do seem to suit my voice and they are really catchy and well-written. Thanks for listening and giving such lovely feedback :).

Always a pleasure! Glad you were by her side.. ;)
Hope you like some of his other stuff.. This one is so lovely, I have just changed the lyrics to be a female version.. Been meaning to learn it for a long time, so thanks for the heads up.. haha
Another classic of his if you fancy doing his songs:
If you could read my mind
Keep them coming..
"If you could read my mind girl,what a tale my thoughts could tell,just like an old-time movie ,about a ghost in a wishing well" I actually knew that one for a long time but didn't know the author. I think it was used in a Simpson's episode way back in the 90s and I've had that first line stuck floating around my head since then. It seems there is a documentary from 2019 that has the same title "If you could read my mind" I might watch that later today and see what other songs are featured in it.
Such beautiful lyrics that one.. I think you're right about the Simpsons, you got me searching for the episode now.. lol
Looking forward to you doing this one! 😍
If you find the episode let me know,I googled it and only found that documentary. I have a feeling its one of the very early seasons, probably no later than season 4.
I will! No luck as yet though..
