I listened SO many times after our son died...drunk as hell..this song helped me grieve...Blue Rodeo has a song for all occasions and moods though don't they?! Loved them from day one..always will..so extremely talented!!
I have loved this band and the music they make together for over 20 years now. I feel like their past is just as meaningful as their present. Have they ever not written and played the beautiful, the tragic, and the hopeful all throughout? The keyboard, the percussion, the base, and, yes, the vocals. Such a beautiful blend of voices. Also,whomever is advising and producing their videos is spot on as to what they are trying to convey through their music. My viewpoints on some of their songs has either been altered or confirmed.
This song makes me feel like I am floating, especially the piano at the end... Greg on drums (with that smirk and all dressed up) cracks me up everytime. He and Glenn swap out when they play live. So fun.
I have seen them several times in concert...they are amazing! I agree with you 100%...Jim Cuddy's vocals are SO underrated...one band that is TRULY amazing live, and sound the exact same on recordings...absolutely nothing fake about these guys...
Have always loved Blue Rodeo and many back stage passes. Excellent people and so down to earth. Got to play my guitar back stage with Jim. One of the best days of my life.....always in my heart....
out of all my favorite Blue Rodeo songs I keep circling back to this one, is it my favorite, not sure cause I love them all but I always stop at this one ....
Greg Keelor playing the drums on this piece :) Cool as a cucumber with a smirk on this face like he won the ultimate prize... Beautiful song from the first note to the last beat!
@@danobrien3695 That large, highly populated country to our south; actually, more unknown than under- rated; but that's OK. They've done pretty well ( I think "Outskirts" is 35 years old).
James was sweet and a multi-instrumentalist. I loved our before or after-concert chats. He played in studio with so many people I'd be curious to find out how many. I will always remember him fondly. Peace, at last, kind soul! XX
Jim Cuddy has the most expressive voice ever. He makes me want to fall in love. I have seen Blue Rodeo in concert a few times, and I am always blown away. I met Jim once, very briefly, after an outdoor concert in Toronto. I gushed, and he was gracious. A real gentleman. He also has the most gorgeous blue eyes, and a killer smile.
Incredibly underrated song of my time !. I just sat here completely stoned and listened to this tune about 7 times...... Wow, trippie !! Thanks Blue Rodeo !!
I always thought this had an after hours jazz club feel to it. Then again, I have never been to a jazz club, so I really have no clue. All I know is I love this song.
All right I miss you tonight And I'm not really sure what to say It keeps rolling in like a slow moving train It gets harder and harder each day Each time I think that the worst of it's through I am stopped in my tracks by some vision of you All right I miss you tonight I admit that I'm falling down blue
Marvelous. How many songs have the drummer deliver a guitar solo? Great stuff. This song really belongs to James Gray. His piano really sets the mood. Thanks for posting.
i would be just trying to make a comment about this song for the sake of thinking i need to respond, but i don't need to because i love just listening with my ears and loving the feel i get from it so i'd like for you to do the same. just listen and enjoy.
