Laying in my girlfriends bed last weekend, crying silent tears. Even though she was right next to me in bed I felt alone. I don't know what was happening. I just felt something. She's the one.

I listen to this, bawling my eyes out, tears falling into
the dishwater......... RIP, Gord. I'll NEVER forget you for inviting me
specially to your first ever worldwide podcast of Coke Machine Glow, after you
read my review of your book of poems by the same title. It was the first live
music podcast on the Internet, I was front row center, you in the spotlight,
and a spotlight still shines on that memory of mine. Baa maa pii, see you down the road..........Much love

I grabbed a digital copy from 7 digital..if anyone is looking where to get a digital copy of Introduce Yerself. I typed up the lyrics for those who want them.
I could tell the truth
Or I could tell a lie
Or say the right thing
At the right time
We started out writing good letters back and forth
Me, in memphis, recording
Yours were scented with Coco No. 5
We wrote stimulating things.
I could tell the truth
Or I could tell a lie
Or say the right thing
At the right time
Like I miss you so much in person and up close
When we fucked till we fall
Away from each other we could manage to see
Just what it was that we got
In absentia we were better off
Finding new places to stand
Finding new signs of resignation
For the wishes we shared
I could tell the truth
Or I could tell a lie
Or say the right thing
At the right time

Susie JL good catch with stimulating things. On the other side I think he is saying. .. me in Memphis recording rather than me and my first recording. It would make sense and this is why.
Back in 1989 the hip released their debut "studio" album, up to here. This album was recorded in Memphis while gord was dating his future wife.

Pero que triste

[@TheTragicallyhip101]

Can someone give their perspective on what this song is about?

[@speiluhr126]

Jesse Heeley Coco channel is about his ex wife I think. About how distance made them closer but when they where together they fought. In absentia they where better off.

[@CraigStCyrPlus]

The Cocao Industry in Columbia, 1983. Farmers were pissed.

[@colleencleland3788]

Jesse Heeley his ex ....her name now is kaya usher....they where young when they got together...good sex...he mentions hat in an interview...when they got married at 19....he said...they went to Nova Scotia...and never changed their clothes for weeks..
