The death of Gord Down­ie has left a long-tailed cloud over my week, af­fect­ing me more than Prince or Bowie’s did. Those two had larg­er cul­tur­al foot­prints but that’s part of what made their pass­ings eas­i­er to take. They both seemed like out­sized mul­ti­me­dia ap­pari­tions, or as Hed­wig de­scribed Bowie, “an id­iom work­ing in Amer­i­ca and Cana­da.”

Down­ie wasn’t that. You could still see the seams on his art – by de­sign – and that made it all much more hu­man and you could feel the thumbprints in the lacquer. 

At any rate, here’s an­oth­er great song of which he had dozens.
