The wind of the Canadian West blows over us with the presence of George Fox.
Glad to have you over, George.
Oh, great to be here.
Enjoying myself.
Yeah.
Your next song is a great hit for you.
But as I recall, it did not have any French lyrics.
Originally, no.
How did you come around to doing that?
Well, yeah, it was a very inspired song because I wrote it for my wife on our wedding day.
Look at this guy.
So it was pretty successful.
The record company said we should get it out into the Quebec market and have it sung in French.
And I started suggesting Patrick Norman would be a [C] good candidate maybe.
[Ab] They said, no, no, George, we think you can do it.
Oh, yeah.
The other guy is too old, right?
And if you can't do it, George, Patrick can.
But [B] we did okay in the studio.
At least I think we did.
I'll let the audience be the judge here.
But I can say this.
It is a very beautiful song.
Thank you very much.
It's a song from us.
