It was in Bobcaygeon
Listening to Here and Now on the CBC on my drive home today, I heard an absolutely mind-blowing version of The Tragically Hip’s “Bobcaygeon” by Damhnait Doyle. I have no idea how to pronounce that name. I can’t stop listening to this.
You can stream it for free on her site. And it’s available on the iTunes music store. Get the whole album! Her versions of “Gimme Gimme” and “Everlong” are great, too.
Drove back to town this morning with working on my mind
I thought of maybe quitting
thought of leaving it behind
went back to bed this morning
and as I’m pulling down the blind
the sky was dull and hypothetical
and falling one cloud at a time
