Ah, memories when Canadian rock was kicking arse.
What a fuckin awesome video! Not to mention the song.
@Nebulatus lmao, so true. Good call.
@nickpro11 Nope not plaskett. but you could say northey is the west coast plaskett.
@govern0r Every uncool person out there is too busy listening to Lady Gaga.
@govern0r — I know what you mean! I LOVE this song! It’s SO under-rated! I really relate to it!
@Jaynification one month and it’s hit 12 674
Northey’s cool. Don’t question it.
@govern0r Three months later and it’s now up to 11,000 =D
What a great song, hidden away in BC. Along with Pagliaro, the best rock and roll in Canada that never gets heard.
@govern0r : It simply means only few people have good taste in this world.
. If this went to as high as 25 million views then this must be “Jai Ho” of the pussycat dolls or something. lol.
this song is fkn brilliant!
iss that Plaskett? the singer?
Is the song I have been looking for since 1996? Let’s see. . . Yes, it is. Thank Heaven.
Truly underrated
great band
I got to see the band open for Warren Zevon twice. Does anyone have a video of their concert from that era? If the band has one, please release it!
How the fuck does this classic only have 5000 views?
Instant favorite~!
Man, the 90′s were great thanks to music like this. Captures a time when life was great, the sun was shining, the liquor was flowing, and I didn’t give a fuck about anything! Then it all went to shit after Bush, 9/11, corporate fraud, and ongoing economic woes. Let’s hope this next decade is way the fuck better!
This song makes me proud to be a Canadian!
So cool how you guys played with Jonah!! XD
I love this song and these guys. My understanding is that this tune was written about Michael Bolton – you know, all fluff, no substance.
soul like a thimble
swallowed up in symbols
wanting what I don’t need
if sympathy’s the answer
I’ll have temporary cancer
but that’s not what I’ll have you believe
It was the suit that got me the gig
It was the tear that got me the girl
I’m a sheep in this wolf’s clothing
I’m a picture that I’m holding
of someone who is cool
someone who is cool
in natural selection
I’ve avoided all detection
and the tender bits underneath
all with window dressing and
calculated guessing
and a bark bigger than my teeth
It was the suit that got me the gig
It was the tear that got me the girl
I’m a sheep in this wolf’s clothing
I’m a picture that I’m holding
of someone who is cool
