Song Of The Year

No Woman. Whitney

Best musical moment is a tough one for me...but to see our Canadian Rock Heroes the Tragically Hip, playing one of their last shows ever due to lead singer Gord Downie being diagnosed with brain cancer..seeing the fight in the man, tears in his eyes, emotion throughout the arena..pretty unforgettable.

Worst moment...don't think I can pick one. We lost too many great musicians this year so the fact that Bowie, Cohen, and Prince are gone, we had too many bad moments. Didn't really have a bad concert moment.. Maybe a few disappointing ones but I hate to be negative!
