There has never been a more mesmerizing, charismatic, talented and entertaining front man than Gordie. A true original. Miss him so much. Thank god for The HIP.
🦃 HAPPY THANKSGIVING EVERYONE 🦃 I LOVE TRAGICALLY HIP!!! SENDING GOOD VIBES RORY 💙 SO NICE TO SEE THAT SMILE AND THAT LAUGH!! HAPPY TRAGICALLY HIP DAY!! 🇨🇦 GORD DOWNIE 🇨🇦 😊💓🔥🤘✌️
Gord Downie a great dancer? Makes scenes he was a Tier A hockey goalie his whole childhood (If there is a position in team sport that requires greater body awareness I cant picture it). And he was apparently exceptionally good at it. Tall for a goalie before tall goalies were what you looked for. He once had a near perfect season (and I don't mean wins but shut outs!). His song Fireworks is reportedly partly about the rift that occurred between him and his Father when he chose having a girlfriend and being in a band over a position with a Junior Hockey team. (The main pre-NHL proving ground at the time).

Long live the Hip! Miss Gord everyday. This song and performance slays.
AWESOME REACTION RORY 💙 THANK YOU EDWARD FOR REQUESTING THE AWESOME TRAGICALLY HIP!! HAVE A WONDERFUL DAY!! 😊💓🔥🤘✌️
I love your reactions to the Hip all of them that I've seen so far. You should check out Twist My Arm by Gord and the boys.
BTW a bit later in their careers Gord changed the first line of this song to "He said: "I'm tragically hip, 'cmon just let's go" "
They deserved to be as popular around the world as they are in Canada.
All the same, I'm still kind of glad they're "ours".

Great reaction Rory - re Gord as a dancer: have a listen to The Dance and Its Disappearance from his solo album, The Grand Bounce. Another great tune
