A standout classic when the airwaves were full of classics.
They'd play it a few times every Saturday morning at the Dalhousie University skating rink.

That lyric "I turn my collar to the cold and damp" sure does describe our springs up here.

Not just spring. We spent two days in Halifax last August and was
cool and raining the whole time.

Unbelievable bad luck. Last summer was unusually hot and dry. Half the province was threatened by forest fires and the other half by dry wells and extremely low rivers and lake levels. We desperately needed that rain at that time.

S & G are and were a great pair of songwriters, singers, and storytellers.

I loved the fact that he was singing about an octave lower, and I could sing with him. But then...he
jumped about an octave and I was out of he picture. Great voice though. I clicked on this video
also, and it sounds to me like he is hitting a bunch of notes very flat. Maybe it was just 'cause he
was in Australia.

Couldn't understand the words...my hearing problem...plus she made weird mouth movements that
interferred with lip reading along with having the mike in front of her mouth. That was one thing
very enjoyable about David Draiman's rendition, I could understand every word. His enunciation was
fantastic. I wish more singers would give some thought to those with hearing problems. Just moving
the mike below the lips would make a big difference. I've seen singers hold the mike in front of-
and below their lips, and I don't think it makes any difference to the sound.
