| The Tragically Hip – Sherpa Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
I am assuming that Daryl means 'under-rated' given that this song receives little, if any radio play. Anyhow, I very much agree that it's a terrific song. Very nice lyrics. While I can't speak for Gord Downie's actual intention, I am hit viscerally with the imagery: talking at length with someone you know well enough that the content of the conversation is trumped by the fact that you're having it with them. Sharing wonderful moments of conversation and mutual appreciation. I also get a bit of a Canadiana vibe...but that just might be a projection given some of his other lyrics, the references to nature, and my own mental placement of these events in some gorgeous Canadian nature. |
