Rest in peace Gordon… What a beautiful song ❤
It's about the breakup of his first marriage
@@davidglow3 True but still beautiful and poignant
The guy on lead is killing it in the dark.
On May 1, 2023 the whole world became Canadians. His immense talents made him an international treasure and he will be missed!
Some of us have been for years, but thanks for making me emotional all over again three days later.
@@ska4me7 months for me.
Just a man and his guitar...
It's one of the best songs ever written.
Wonderful tribute.
May you rest in peace 🕊 Gordon Lightfoot.
🕊~❤️~🕊
He’s got a nice tasteful little band there. No unnecessary showiness, just playing exactly what the music calls for and letting the singer be heard. I love these old Midnight Special clips.
May you rest in peace forever.
@@joesensor4508 So true! These clips are pure gold! Thank you for sharing! 💖
Beautiful song, bringing me back to another very wonderful time in my life. Sad to hear of your passing Gordon. Condolences to your family and loved ones. You are a legend.
don't forget Red Shea who was lead guitar on this masterpiece
So many people learn to play an instrument but only some are gifted with songwriting and storytelling abilities such as Gordon Lightfoot. Thank you for your beautiful songs. RIP
This song is one of the best of the singer/songwriter era of the early 70'S. Unbelievably great!
He was the ultimate storyteller with a voice that touched one's heart. I was very lucky to see him four times. RIP dear one.
Rest In Peace Gorden Lightfoot 70’s FM Radio Icon Your deep within all our hearts!
"Hey - I just picked up a new album called 'Summertime Dream', ya coming over to listen to it with me?"...
The Album is worn but is still spinning on the platter. Respect
One of those rare songs where no matter what you’re doing you have to stop and try to absorb every note no matter how many times you’ve heard it before
So true. Makes time stop inside of me.
Another legend has passed.😢
I’m so, so sad. He will be missed by millions. I was fortunate to see him many, many years ago. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
This is one of the most perfect songs I’ve ever heard. I grew up with Gordon and it never gets old listening to him. If this came out today it would shoot to #1 quickly.
It’s about time Burt Sugarmans estate made a RUclips channel for Midnight Special. We need to see these performances straight from the source… RIP Gordon Lightfoot. Your music meant the world to me…
The truest Canadian treasure.
a WORLD treasure!
One of the two great Canadian Gords
I used to watch this show as a young teenager; this was our MTV back then :) Quality music is timeless, this song is an all-around masterpiece of lyrics, chords, composition, and that voice. Just a man, his guitar, and a microphone...and a couple of friends to round out a great performance. Thank you for sharing your gift with us Gordon, Rest In Peace after a life well lived.
1000 times better than anything the MTV era produced.
I still love this song, after all of these decades.
Actually one of the top 5 songs in music history
A live performance back the 70s without lip-synching. Fantastic.
Such an important part of my childhood. My father introduced me to Gordon when i was young. He passed when i was 18. That's 34 years ago now. This music I still share with him when i hear it. RIP Gordon Lightfoot
I saw him 9 months ago in concert, and he seemed frail. THIS video is how i will always remember him. RIP
Thank you for this. Rip Gordon, you touched the world with your music
Another travesty this man did not live to see an induction into the rock hall of fame. Please induct Randy Bachman, BTO and the Guess Who before you embarrass yourselves further. If Joni Mitchell is in and Neil Young are in, Gordon Lightfoot, Bachman and Cummings, Paul Rodgers and Bryan Adams should all be in. And I'm not even Canadian. RIP Mr. Lighfoot thank you for your contributions to music and humanity.
You are so right ,his music was so good he should be in every hall of Fame except rap
@@kathywright6853 - Definitely the Composers Hall of Fame!
The RnR Hall is a joke.
I didn’t even really listen to BTO, and I don’t care for Bryan Adams, over Young or Mitchell, yet I can recognize they’ve had enough impact on music to deserve the same recognition in greatest music of rock n roll history.
Who cares about hall of fame anymore. He’s the best.
I post a video of me singing Gordon lightfoot follow my RUclips channel and subscribe please
I knew he was a brilliant songwriter, and If I Could Read Your Mind is a masterpiece, but also what a superb performer...
The world has lost a superlative talent. RIP Maestro.
My favorite Gordon song! He will be dearly missed. 😭
As a lifelong guitarist and lover of SONGS it's just fantastic. "The hero would be me..." Thank you maestro Lightfoot. We love you
Thank you, Burt Sugarman, and The Midnight Special. RIP, Mr. Lightfoot.
You are welcome, Burt Sugarman
RIP Lightfoot! You wrote the songs of my childhood… a.m. Gold
Your music lives on forever 💚
The voice, the music. So powerful yet so humble. Rest in peace, Gordon Lightfoot.
Perfect voice
Perfect guitar playing
Perfect song
This is a beautiful song ! Rest in peace Gordon Light Foot !
A great Canadian's gone but his music stays with us forever! Salut Gordon!
I have always loved this song. I remember so vividly when it started getting radio play when I was a sophomore in high school. It’s hauntingly beautiful. When I got married, I had another of his songs- “Beautiful”- played before the ceremony started. “Annie’s Song” (John Denver), “Evergreen” (Barbra Streisand”) and “Make Love Stay” (Dan Fogelberg) were also among my selections
Rest In Peace. Thank you for the wonderful song.
This is one the most haunting songs ever written. RIP Gordon 🙏 and thank you for all of your beautiful songs! ❤
Thank you, Sugarman family (or whoever actually runs this channel).
Thank you very much for the nice note
@@burtsugarman-pq3mp Heard your interview with Bob Lefsetz, and I thought it was fantastic! What a fascinating life! I hope somebody makes your story into a movie. Thanks again for posting this video, and for creating this incredible RUclips channel.
Still can't believe how good these videos look and sound. RIP Gordon.
I absolutely love this song and so relevant to me right now ….. this is a masterpiece of music
Rest in Peace!!! Thank you all for the music you left us.
I really love this man's voice. The ultimate singer-songwriter to me.
God Speed Gordon! Your songs were absolute magic!🎶♥️
Thanx for all the beautiful music you made while here on Earth. R.I.P.
Such a gorgeous song. Rest In Peace, Sir Gordon, and thank you.
💔 😔 🙏🌈🌉✨️❤️🕊
Thank you. Big Gord from Orillia Ontario Canada. May a national and global treasure rest in peace.
We all will miss Gordon, an thank you for great music and memoeries you left us.
Gordon passed away, and then I loose 2 uncles! All in less then a week apart! This is a very sad month for me, and it's not over. May GOD be with them!!!
An incredible song by an amazing guitarist, an amazing lyricist, an amazing voice, an amazing person whose soul went back to the ONE who created him. Hope he's singing in the Heavenlies. RIP
One of favorites of Gordon's. RIP dear Gordon. You will be sorely missed. 🙏
I don't use the word often, but there's no doubt, Gordon Lightfoot was a legend.
Great Song Gordon was a Awesome Singer Gordon go And R.I.P. My Friend God Bless
How beautiful is this song thank you for your voice😢
An artist whom I shall surely miss. Those of you who remember him, as well as Jim Croce, Pete Seeger, Harry Chapin Cat Stevens and many others from an era; that sadly can never be reproduced.
This song though, and its lyrics remind me of something I once had
Beautiful, I was about 18 when this was released, love it now as I did then! Sleep well fella!
rest in peace✨🦋💙⚡️✨
Another legend gone thank you for all the great music R I P
One of my all time favourite songs from a great Canadian musician. RIP Gordon.
Gordon is traveling the Carefree Hwy. RIP
Saw him play in Southern California (Laguna Beach) in 1986. He was amazing!
I surprised myself when I still remembered all the lyrics.
Gene Clark, ex of The Byrds and a great songwriter himself, said this was the most beautiful song he'd ever heard. Whenever I hear it I'm inclined to agree completely.
Musical soul poetry.
Icon. A master song writer and vocalist who cherished by the music aficionados !
Classic and forever beautiful. Thank you for the music and the stories, Gordon. You will be missed.
Ik hoorde dit nummer van Gordon Lightfoot voor het eerst toen ik met mijn moeder en oma in Terschelling was. Zo mooi dit nummer van Gordon Lightfoot!
May God rest his soul… 🥲
Just spectacular….. music at its best
Great track!! RIP....
Too beautiful. Makes me cry inside every time... just drinking those words in. ❤

I just found out today oh, that Gordon Lightfoot died last Monday, and 84 years old, I used to watch him on the midnight special back in the the 70s,80s you're in heaven now with your parents😢
An absolutely perfect song. In every way
Thank you for the music, Gordon.
I listened to him as a young girl. I was decidedly Canadian in those moments. I remember all those heart-breaking lyrics and grew up to know what they meant. It's a killer, this one.
A million thanks for posting this video.
Our pleasure.
Oh God - just beautiful ❤️
RIP Gordon. Your music was amazing.
Gordon, you are gonna be alive in our hearts. Thank you.
His vocal runs are absolutely Incredible!
So beautiful! Thanks for posting this. Chris Pratt could play him in a movie.
RIP. One of the greatest folk singers.
a masterpiece from a master musician. Godspeed Gord.
Voice of an Angel
As a sailor I’m forever grateful for Edmund Fitzgerald
Bob Dillon just said Gordon Lightfoot lived his whole life and never wrote a bad song. He also said every time he heard a Gordon Lightfoot song he wished it would never end. Pretty high praise from a pretty good songwriter his damn self
Beyond lovely.
loved your music very much and I sing once a week at the residence where l live. Planning a concert soon
"And I must say it means so much to me,
To be the one who's telling you,
I'm telling you,
That you're beautiful"
Awesome song, and an incredible recorded performance. Thank you so much for sharing this!
Rest easy, Gordon. Thank you for all the beautiful music.
Rest In Peace ❤
A wonderful talent. Thanks for the beautiful music.
God bless you dear Gordon, such a wonderful song.
