Gordon Lightfoot, whose poetic songs captured the hearts of his fellow Canadians and millions worldwide, has died. He was 84.

My wife told me that last night! Sad!

Dude, with a member named Lightfoot here I don't think that's appropriate. Mike probably is too nice to say anything but geeze man.

I almost s---, I thought you meant our Lightfoot.

Wow! What Fireball said, right on.

Agreed with you guys... may wanna clarify that thread title a bit, because I thought it was referring to the member the second I saw it. 😬

"O.T.- Musician Gordon Lightfoot has passed" maybe?

I did the same as Wyoming David and about schit a brick when I read the title.

Our Lightfoot is gonna see this and will have to get a second opinion!!

Long live Lightfoot!

Here, Here...!

I was a huge fan. However, Lightfoot is a carryover from my CB radio days.

The title of the thread was pause for reflection though!

Rumors of your demise have been greatly exaggerated.

the good ol day's driving all over central U.S. getting to hear Lightfoot when the reception was right

Jaysus!

Scared the sheet out of me!

I saw my name, including the middle initial, in the obits one time. A real wake up at 7 AM!

RIP Gordon,

Dale

Was looking through the obits one morning, found myself, same exact middle name, was a surprise

Good gosh man my heart jumped into my throat!

WTH! I was afraid to open the thread. 😬

Bad choice on title! OMG! My heart skipped a beat when I read that! GEEZ!

I thought the same as all of the above comments. Glad Mike yer still with us. Was a time stopping still moment. Too bad about G Lightfoot but being honest he was not one of my favorite's from back in the day. Just didn't like the tone of his voice. Did like the Edmund Fitz song though.

My heart skipped a beat!
I enjoyed the music of Gordon Lightfoot.
I enjoy the company of our Lightfoot!

Yup I was afraid, it was about Mike, sure glad that it wasn't. RIP G Lightfoot
