Been on a Hip kick lately. Never really listened to them before but I saw a Day for Night CD at the record store a few weeks ago and liked it and decided to download their whole discography. I like this song a lot. I'm an American-Canadian dual-citizen but I've never actually lived in Canada, so maybe this is just part of my civic duty :)
Ah, that explains it. I was wondering how you could have possibly avoided listening to them before now if you were a fellow Canadian. They still get a shit ton of radio and jukebox/bar/restaurant...

Ah, that explains it. I was wondering how you could have possibly avoided listening to them before now if you were a fellow Canadian. They still get a shit ton of radio and jukebox/bar/restaurant play up here, their music is featured in loads of other places (in commercials, shows, sports stadiums, etc), and before Gord's death they put on a MASSIVE farewell concert that was watched live by 11.7 million people.

Yeah, I've at least known of them for a long time and remember* hearing about their farewell concert and Gord's death, just never listened to them. I'm sure I've heard them some on the radio or whatever when visiting family/friends up there, of course, but didn't know it was them :P
Love seeing TTH posts on tildes! I grew up listening to them. In Between Evolution reminds me so much of spending time at friends’ cottages on Georgian Bay. It’s hard to choose a favourite though...

Thinking of the farewell tour gets me misty-eyed.
Almost 12 million Canadians watching a man with a terminal diagnosis do his best to hold the in-venue prime minister accountable for fixing Canada's relationship with indigenous peoples.
Moments that the public broadcaster was built for - they should probably make a Historical Moment out of that night ❤️❤️
