Day Two: Least Favorite Song
The Tragically Hip. The great Canadian band that were everywhere through high school and university. They seem loved everywhere I go. My friends all go on about Gord Downies voice, which to me sounds like…
NAILS ON A CHALKBOARD!!!
I can’t stand his voice. It physically makes me want to itch my skin off. I can’t explain it, but each time I hear it I have an immediate need to leave the room, turn off the radio, switch the channel…
And this song? Worst of the batch.
I did give him a chance when I went to see the Stones in Moncton. I tried to have an open mind and not tune it all out right away. But he came across as completely stoned and out of it, and really left me wishing I didn’t have to stay. I finally went for a walk to the merchandise stands as far away from the concert stage and speakers as I could get…
So least favorite song? The Tragically Hip. “New Orleans is Sinking”.
