Wow, I didn't know this song existed until now. I remember reading a summary of stories from the year Terry died in our local paper; the writer was certain Terry Fox would be forgotten within 5 years. This weekend is the 32nd Annual Terry Fox Run. I hope we don't forget Stan either. Two of the greatest Canadians who have touched my soul.

Poor Stan Rogers died a hero. On a plane that caught fire in 1983, he proceeded to get his fellow passengers out, but was overcome by the noxious smoke from the plastic seats.

He was actually killed going back into the plane after he had escaped to save a child. He died a hero.

The story I heard was he refused to leave the plane until everyone else was out because he was afraid of being accused of favoritism. He wouldn't listen to the flight crew. That hardly makes him a hero.

I had a dream one night I was climbing a steep rocky hill with Terry and I was slipping and falling and he kept telling me to "come on Travis get up you can do it" and finally when I got to the top of the hill and I couldn't move anymore Terry Reached his hand out I grabbed it and he helped me to the top. I cry thinking bout that dream cause i eel it was his way of saying achieve your dream you can do it

@primerib613 Thanks to "Terry", I found this song. It's very difficult to get this information in the United States. In any case, I bought the album, and I noticed that Stan Rogers wrote this song in 1969. Therefore, the answer is no. However, it is very appropriate, similar to "Candle in the WInd", which Elton John used for another purpose decades after releasing the album on which the song is.

@mannalert Wow, you are right. They both have that melancholic, openness, and light, hope reaching toward what is better, and very much realistic about the difficulties of maritime life. Thanks for sharing that observation! (PS, As an ESL teacher I can say your English is great! Except I think the word you want is... maybe... the music and painting have the same "feeling" to them...? ) Take care.

@@NK73080 You answered the question, "Did Stan Rogers write this song in honor of Terry Fox?'" with "He did in fact!" Now you try to walk it back by saying the song was written "around the same time as the marathon of hope". Calling major BS on you. I guess every song written about that time was a tribute to Terry Fox. Can't wait for your dissertation on how Gregorian chants were written as a tribute to Stephen Hawking, as in terms of the age of the universe they were pretty much co-existent.

@@murraystewartj ? I’m sorry if my 10month old comment offended you enough to write such a exhaustive review of my “ineptitude”. I was merely suggesting it was written around the same span of a couple years… also your Gregorian chant argument is quite a whopping logical fallacy.
