The Fav Hip song topic inspired me for this topic. So, what is the best Gord Downie Solo song? It's tough, but I'd have to round it down to
Chancellor
Yer Possessed,
and probably the one on top of my list, Nobody 'Cept You (live)
(honourable mention to Starpainters and Canada Geese)

Trick Rider, would sing that 1 to my girls.
I will not give up. My face is set,my gait is fast,my goal is heaven,my road is narrow,my way is rough,my companions are few,my guide is reliable,my mission is clear. I cannot be bought,compromised,detoured,lured away,turned back,diluted or delayed. I will not flinch in the face of sacrifice,hesitate in the presence of adversity,negotiate at the table of the enemy,ponder at the pool of popularity,or meander in the maze of mediocrity. I will not give up,shut up or slow down....Blessed Be!

those songs scream my current state and situation back at me.
Gord has all the answers, apparently.

The Never Ending Present isn't only GD's top song in my books, but it easily cracks into my Top 5 songs, ever...there's few things as awesome as walking in summer with this song occupying your headphones...
