Okay... go back... way back...
Do you remember the first GL song that grabbed your attention and turned you into a GL fan for life?

For me, even though I'd heard him in the late 60s, the one song that really got my attention was IYCRMM. I remember watching a show on CHSH out of ST. John, NB. Gord was on a stool, in the spotlight, with guitar in hand, and I was totally in awe. I sat on the floor in front of the TV and watched, and it hooked me forever. If I remember correctly, we still had a black and white TV at the time. Now, I just wish I could remember the name of the show. I may be wrong, but I seem to remember Anne Murray introducing him.
