As a huge Hip fan, I love your style. And you 2 nailed this song bang on. Gord must be very proud of you 2. I absolutely love your tribute. Thanx for your post
I'm a Canadian living in the US. I love Canada with all my heart and am at a loss with words about Gord's passing. All I can say is that was so awesome, brought tears to my eyes. He's proud of that no doubt Thanks!

Lyrics One, two, three, four, one, two September seventeen For a girl I know it's Mother's Day Her son has gone alee And that's where he will stay Wind on the weathervane Tearing blue eyes sailor-mean As Falstaff sings a sorrowful refrain For a boy in Fiddler's Green His tiny knotted heart Well, I guess it never worked too good The timber tore apart And the water gorged the wood You can hear her whispered prayer For men at masts that always lean The same wind that moves her hair Moves a boy through Fiddler's Green Oh nothing's changed anyway Oh nothing's changed anyway Oh anytime today He doesn't know a soul There's nowhere that he's really been But he won't travel long alone No, not in Fiddler's Green Balloons all filled with rain As children's eyes turn sleepy-mean And Falstaff sings a sorrowful refrain For a boy in Fiddler's Green Songwriters: Gordon Downie / Gordon Sinclair / Johnny Fay / Paul Langlois / Robert Baker

Lyrics
One, two, three, four, one, two
September seventeen
For a girl I know it's Mother's Day
Her son has gone alee
And that's where he will stay
Wind on the weathervane
Tearing blue eyes sailor-mean
As Falstaff sings a sorrowful refrain
For a boy in Fiddler's Green
His tiny knotted heart
Well, I guess it never worked too good
The timber tore apart
And the water gorged the wood
You can hear her whispered prayer
For men at masts that always lean
The same wind that moves her hair
Moves a boy through Fiddler's Green
Oh nothing's changed anyway
Oh nothing's changed anyway
Oh anytime today
He doesn't know a soul
There's nowhere that he's really been
But he won't travel long alone
No, not in Fiddler's Green
Balloons all filled with rain
As children's eyes turn sleepy-mean
And Falstaff sings a sorrowful refrain
For a boy in Fiddler's Green
Songwriters: Gordon Downie / Gordon Sinclair / Johnny Fay / Paul Langlois / Robert Baker

That must of been the best beer ever
It's hillbilly music also known as Celtic music
Sorta ,
Folk not celtique , close
Actually its bluegrass
But folk and country and bluegrass have their roots in CELTIC music and culture
