Was it the music that he loved or the combination of the music and lyrics? Was it his favourite song to perform live? There are so many follow-up questions that I would have liked to have answered after him making the proclamation that Springtime was his favourite song.
As mentioned above, I had just moved to Ottawa when the album came out. On the day of release (or maybe the day before) Chez 106 had an album listening special including a live interview with the band in between each song. I remember Gord going fairly into depth about Springtime and it being his favourite off the album, but for the life of me I do not remember details of it now.
Not sure if that was a nationwide special of just through Chez, but would be a great find if a copy of that existed somewhere to re-listen to again.
