  • He was a great singer/songwriter who touched the elusive spirit of Canada. He was larger than life. Before dying in a tragic accident at the age of 33, Stan Rogers was already well on his way to becoming a national icon. Born in Ontario, Rogers' mother was from Nova Scotia and much of his music was influenced by his summers there. This lyrical portrait captures the man and his music and has captivated millions of viewers over its broadcast life.

    I was introduced to the music of Stan Rogers, long after the tragedy of his death, by his friend and fellow folk singer Eric Bogle. Though separated by continents, these two "people's poets" managed to distill the essence of what it means to be ordinary and yet extraordinary both at the same time. As long as we continue to care for each other and for the real issues of life, there will be room enough for musical giants like Stan and Eric. Heartfelt thanks to you both. You are immortal.

    I found his music online while on my first tour in Iraq in 2003-04. I can't tell you how much he helped me after getting blown up on patrol or a bad firefight. Singing along with him made the bad things go away. To this day, if im having a black day, we are singing together.

    I bought a copy of the DVD. I come too late to Stan's amazing music. Or perhaps not. I wish peace and happiness to Garnet and the rest of Stan's family. He is well loved in the USA.

    In the midst of the Pennines hills, in the NW of England his songs are still sung - every week.

    I used to sail out of newport harbor in california, one friday night after we had cleaned the boat, we went looking for dinner on PCH. We walked into this little diner, that had a small stage with a barstool, and a mike, and I will never forget who the musician that night was, that was playing, just 15-20 people, and stan rogers just sitting there happily playing. You could not pay good money for something like that, it was magnificent. Thank you stan, for a beautiful night, and great memories that I still remember over 30 years later.

      I just bought the DVD, It is the same as this RUclips video, but I am glad that I got it. Enjoy his music, what a terrible shame he had to go so early, I think musicians should make it a religion to stay away from aircraft.

    Thanks for the upload - I was born in 2002 and the words of this documentary regarding young people ring true. For many of his newer fans, his music was first discovered through memes and the internet’s affinity of sea shanties. If only he knew just how popular he would become, over forty years later…

    He has a voice like no other. He puts such intense feeling into his music. Certainly leaves an unforgetable and lasting impression.

    Found him because of a meme.
    I wish I could thank the person who made that. One of the many ways the internet is great. I tell anyone who will listen how great Stan is.
    (Meme) Women thoughts…
    I bet he’s somewhere cheating on me.
    Me and the boys… 3 wine bottles deep.
    They were singing Barrett’s Privateers.
    They look like they were having the best time.
