"If I die of vanity, promise me"

It was another Canadian rock icon, Neil Young, who articulated one of rock and roll’s supposed principles: “It’s better to burn out than to fade away.” Gord Downie is living that, but not by way of narcissistic self-destruction. He is burning out by working, and making art. He is achieving a beautiful death. - The New Yorker

Thank you. I miss her a lot. And the country is going to miss Gord, when he goes.
