Gord Downie - Courage Documentary

This is fucking awesome! The Tragically are my favourite band! Seen them 25 times live! Long live the Hip and R.I.P. Gord Downie. You were a poet, musical genius and an amazing human being! You have influenced my life and have become a huge part of the soundtrack of my life. Great documentary!

I'll never forget listening to "Up to here" on a school bus on cassette in 1990 and a fellow student chastise me, for listening to "country music" upon hearing a bar of 38yrs.old... and I recall telling him; you can't NOT appreciate the hip, and still be Canadian! Love the guys to this day! Gord's a legend:)

What a beautiful human being. Still missing you each day; getting through this thing called life through your music and words. Rest in Peace.

Gordie - you made so many people happy with your music and your performances. Thanks for your Courage. We loved you here in the USA!!! God Bless you. You were special.

When I need motivation.. I listen to one of your songs, listen closely to the lyrics.. actually poetry to me.. Thank You Mr. Gord Downie.. for giving me COURAGE!!❤️

It seems so ironic that he helped out so many children and donated his time and love and then ends up with friggin cancer himself. Don’t understand this crazy world sometimes. And just goes to show that we don’t know our destination. God bless your talented soul.

Gord downie May have died but he will live on through the hearts of all of us Canadians forever

If Gord Downie doesn't inspire you to be a better human, you may not be human.

It goes without saying that Tragically Hip was something special, but Gord Downie was a wonderful human being. I am sad that he died from brain cancer, the same cancer that killed my 60-year-old brother. It makes me angry that here in the UK the funding to find a cure for brain cancer is so very low, and yet, it kills many children as well as adults. Anyway, I never got to see or meet Gord Downie, it was my partner who mentioned him to me, and that made me seek out information and listen to the band. Five years or so on from Gord's passing, he is still attracting admirers, and I am proud to say I am one of them.

He was, “is” one of the best, I love Gord Downie.

They should have a class in grade 11 and 12 you take in Canadian highschools and it's called Gord 101. Canadian history. Each albums a chapter. You would learn a ton.

Thanks so much for posting this. I have always enjoyed The Hip's music but didn't fully appreciate the man that was Gord Downie. Every clip is an absolute gem. Brings me to tears thinking he is no longer among us.

Great documentary dude 🤘 Weird thing was.. at the end water started pooling on the bottom of my eyelids. Had to blink it away. R.I.P. Gordie

He’s so amazing. His words so comforting and Canadian. He’s helped me through some of the darkest times and for that I idolize this man. Always will. RIP Gord u will always be in my heart.

Music is all about emotions. Gord knew that.

Hip was TheGreatest Band ever,Gord D is a true Ledgend.RIP GORDIE BABY AND REST OF YOU OPEN YOUR EYES AND BE DECENT HUMANS

Dang good musician listen to their songs to this day and always will !!!👋

Thanks for this. Im missing Gord and making the 2024 rounds.

Great man, Great band.

I find it interesting when I compare what MY thoughts on what the songs meant against what HE meant.  sometimes Im close, most times not.  But I get my own meaning and the songs have all become part of my DNA
