Oh, look, a baseball work stoppage. I can’t see them worrying about money after signing some 36-year-old pitcher to a $44 million a year contract. 
Anyway, we’ll sail to an island removed from baseball. This countdown of “island” songs is for @JoyDorsey , who does a lot of island hopping on cruise ships. Here’s today’s “oh-lookie-who’s-here” song.
#4: Christian Island (Georgian Bay) - Gordon Lightfoot
See? Gordon can do songs about boats that don’t sink! 
This is a simply stunning and beautiful song, be it from Gordon Lightfoot or anyone else. It just gets extra points because it is from Lightfoot!
So enjoy a trip on the Silver Heels with one of Canada’s greatest musical treasures.

A little quiet for me but overall not bad, nice little singing rhythm. This like music that does not make your neighbors mad.

I can’t be all Ramones, all the time. Can’t even be all Gordon, all the time. I like to mix it up and thoroughly confuse the neighbors!

@FourWalls I hear that and I am kind of that way. I am sure you way more diverse in music than me, but anything that confuses the neighbors is a good day in my book. They to damn nosey anyway.
