Glad you enjoyed it, Rob! I'm not sure I've ever heard Gordie sing the anthem, I'll have to change that
I was watching a Jimi Hendrix doc on Netflix last week and I had a lot of similar thoughts about this tune. My opinion of it has definitely changed (for the better) since I first heard it as a kid. I somehow imagine that the feeling we Canadians get when Gordie Johnson plays O'Canada isn't quite the same kind of buzz that Americans get when they hear Hendrix.... or is it? Great video!
