Again, as with much Hip writing, what Gordon Downie is writing about-You're Not the Ocean is either about strained Ameri-Canuck relations or about the shameful obsession we have with Celebrity/Makeover/Reality culture that Monsieur Downie wants absolutely no part of. Go figure. Or it could be about the divisive issue we have in the World System that we call diversity-or something to that effect! The Tragically Hip are a brilliant Classic Rock band-huge in Canada-unknown everywhere else. And I am their biggest American fan. Only Rabbit Leopold can claim that! Better than that, You're Not the Ocean asks "Pourquoi? Why Can't We all just get along for once?"
