How Gord Downie listens to music

“A book should be read as deliberately and reservedly as it was written”...

What is your preferred method of listening to music?

God what a brilliant statement.. that applies to social media.. ".. a new way to communicate and have nothing to say".

Thanks to not only Gord, but the whole Hip family for brightening what can be an unfriendly “ face so full of mean “world!

Here we are on the highway.

Here we are on the road.

Here we are in the parking lot's Coke machine glow.

Here we are in the bedroom

Here we are in the bed.

Here we are beside eachother

after everything

we've said.

~Gord Downie, deliberately & reservedly.💖

I sure listen to music with deliberation. That is a major part of what's wrong with streaming music. It comes way too easy. There is sure no effort or deliberation in listening to streaming content. Physical media requires a deliberate action to listen to it. That is part of what Gord is trying to communicate here I think. People are losing more than they realize when they stop purchasing physical media and begin relying on streaming content. It is perpetuating apathy and laziness and makes it very difficult to maintain a close connection with the art form itself when it takes no effort to engage with it.

I'm so sorry but I've have to say Gord would've been perfect as Ted Bundy in a movie or Tv show. Go and look at a TB interview then this. The resemblance of there voices & gestures are uncanny 🙀
