Gordon Lightfoot....Tom Waits

Of course, it is likely few of you have ever heard of her, but she is very original and wrote and composed many astonishing songs. She was a poet, composer, singer, comedienne, satirist, social critic, philosopher, optimist. She was an excellent performer, sometimes as a natural blond and other times as a natural brunette. She is known for a big smile and big glasses.

Here are a few of her songs on Youtube. She did some early songs in both French and English versions, but these are all in French. The first is quite early, and despite wikipedia, I knew some students who were singing it in the late sixties.
