10:35 Rest in peace Tom Petty & Gord Downie, your music lives in my heart forever! Thank you
Loved the Hip up to In Violet Light, their last truly awesome record. Then I got into Gord Downie's solo stuff and there are some underrated gems in that bunch of songs. "Vancouver Divorce" is a masterpiece.
i probably agree, altho world container and we are the same especially have brilliant moments and their later stuff has its place... as i write gord has developed brain cancer ... hope he gets well best wishes to him, family and band
Yeah, I really love "Budget Shoes"
For me the best ones are all from Day For Night through In Between Evolution. The 'middle six' of twelve studio albums!
That's about right. Stunning stuff.
Brilliant 🎤🇨🇦
You did it tonight Gord. We ove you. Great show tonight, listened on the cbc at work.
August 20 2016, last Hip tour.
Not necessarily.
music at work
You beat me to it....
Awwww I can't believe I'm just seeing this for the first time now.. Awesome interview with a beautiful soul! RIP Gord ☁️🤍🕊️🙏🕊️🤍🌤️ we'll see you again soon 🥰
this intvw is when I started to respect The Tragically Hip, their music (World Container) and Gord's everyday views of being a citizen of this Small Blue Ball / 3rd Rock from the Sun; water rights.
this album made me look forward in the past to listen again to their music.
Indoctrination runs deep u 🐑 sheep, "3rd rock from the sun" lol, no sorry pal the Heliocentric model is for dumbasses 🗨
You are a brilliant writer Mr Gordon Downie.
Funny how this came up as suggested video after watching Neil Pearts interview. It's amazing how they aren't the same, but they are the same type of person. Not sure if they ever got to hang out together, but to be a fly on the wall at that. Wow!
Fuckin love gordie ,
Always had his sights on a better horizon for the common !
Aweee listening to this now. George is such a good interviewer.
Great interview. I hope more will see it.
Awesome interview George! :)
George is a great person for interviews...this get together is really special
for reall
This is a great interviewer with a great artist/human being.
Strombos and Gord. Canadian history.
"Semi-literate lyrics" says Gord, the greatest modern Canadian poet
I'm not too familiar with their music - but wow that song Courage (for Hugh MacLennan) is a really great tune. I first heard Sarah Polley's haunting version from one of my favorite movies: The Sweet Hereafter - but their version the fantastic as well. I have to get more of their stuff. . .
From Strombo’s soul patch to Gord’s patrol cap, everything about this video screams the Aughts. If anyone wants to dress up like a War-on-Terror-era meathead for Halloween, just show them this.
RIP GORDIE BABY,A GIFT TO THE WORLD
In Between Evolution is amazing too
Would LOVE to see Strombo interview Vince Clarke.
Interesting how Gordie says we meaning his band mates and he needs to be better friends. With bands the work and the process of putting out each album, makes friend ship fades away.
Miss you, Gord.
Where is all the old Gordon Interviews. ?
Gosh he had such an introverted presence… and always looking back at the interviewer. Do you understand me? Do you really get it?
The “mundane and technical” act of giving up smoking is a plus… With certain kinds of cancer, you have a roughly 30% better chance of pulling through healthy if you have never smoked… yet many in older generations have?
RIP Gord and George Snuffalopicus is an obsequious suck up in interviews . He can never ask an uncomfortable question to provoke his guest to get something more introspective from his guests but he does do his home work
Rest in peace the thousand's of people who don't get a voice on tv. That don't have a market for the slave race.
Wow, how prophetic about Tom Petty and his deadly heart attack. I'm going to miss both of them for a long, long time.
9:49-10:04 🤍
But Gordon really in the ever looming Harper vs Trudeau vs Mulcair vs May who's gonna win and why also should the Flames send Sam Bennett back too the Fronts for a long awaited run at the men cup is thats what will best prepare him for an eventual Stanley cup run on the Red Mile and specifically what steps can Doug Gilmour and company take leading into the playoff chase too ensure this team ready too compete with the likes of Erie SSS and Oshawa come on Gord Isn't that What Kingston really needs right now
#f0rKTheBruins!
you have several gold shields.
4:05 The low point in Georges career.
@5:28 Gord lets out a dark hysterical laugh. Its obvious he has a lot hiding in the closet.
you mean between george and Gord really dont like each other.. i sense same, Why would George assume Gord would get sick of hearing his music? what a hater.
Wow, are you a bad judge of people! They're getting along just great here & obviously like each other.
Mick Funz For instance Gord looks George right in the eye and says "we're not friends anymore" and George blindly asks, when did it stop being friends and Gord asks, you mean between you and I? George completely avoids engaging the question.
So am I a bad judge? Sounds pretty clear there was some tension between those two.
Ha ha, they don't bring it up cause it's NOT TRUE Brad, they're friends, talking. Did you watch the rest of the interview & see Gord genuinely engage himself with George & talk like old friends? They're talking very familiarly & comfortably & Gord is very low-key, you're misreading the tone here man
Awesome! I am a satanist! It gives me the incredible power of understanding adults when they speak to each other!! Stay way!!
I thought World Container was a somewhat contrived album… but the change in production and writing style could not ruin the excellent creative impulses of the band… Bob Rock tends to make bands accessible by making them a little generic and boring. Chris Tsangarides the same.
Hamilton the Mecca...dont you forget it
Semi literate Lyrics? Well then......After all I have learned.... Lyrics and heart have no fucking meaning. It was spelled wrong. :)
5440 were a better band!
guys a freak
who? Gord was very impressive. i didnt expect it, whats going on in him is rare. The general lack of what is going on with him is why the world is such a mess.
2006 and Canada was already going downhill. It’s sad to lose a real voice for Canadians.
