footnote : Ola Magnell has already made Sundown in swedish (for Lill Lindfors) beside some more examples like Gösta Linderholm made Early Morning Rain and Ann-Kristin Hedmark covered If You Could Read My Mind. But these pieces has hundreds of versions. Quite a shame there's so many other good Lightfoot songs that's never been interpreted!
