[RoryNights]

Beautiful song.. touching and romantic.

Thank-you for posting :)

[kiwimale1]

yep a definiate artist ...love what he does or leave it ...up to you ,,,if you have ears ya gotta love ...it's magic ...!!!

[BrokenSolitary]

God, I love Bruce. I've seen him only once in concert, but as soon as humanly possible, I'm going again. That night pretty much cemented the unflappable notion that I physically NEED to be a professional musician in my soul. It was amazing. If you haven't seen him live yet...you really must. It's relatively life-changing!

[tonypata]

@BrokenSolitary I don't know where you live, but I saw him in boston last spring and will see him again in Newburyport Mass the 17 of sept. Ya, he is great live. He had a woma violin player in Boston.

[pzkphw]

Story behind the song? The version I heard is he was dining with a woman, possibly Aimee Mann and she asked what he had in his backpack, he said rope and other stuff for the end of the world. She laughed and said if it was the end of the world, she would only be drinking champagne with the one she loved.

[jjmcduff]

I saw this tour in Providence. Bruce called it his "Folk Power Trio"  He opened with a plugged instrumental an blew the roof off the place One of his great band configurations...

[simplyscrummy]

Great hair, Bruce!

[vallaw3417]

I've got the champagne chilling my love. If this is it, we'll have to enjoy it on the other side. The love I have for you is for all of eternity. It's the law in my heart.

[BeezoHow]

We've got our Champagne glasses! Cheers!

[MrDogoman]

[cmc36905]

I love the grin at the end!

[slingshot657]

When & where was this recorded? I'm sure it has to be ~1996 but curious about the details

[cateringbycaprice]

@slingshot657 It was released in 99, so was after '96.....I remember hearing it for the first time when I had just moved into a little town just south of the Canadian border in preparation for Y2K....it was the first thing I heard on the local radio station as I was unpacking, Sept '99......one of my favorites!

[peoplestandup]

I love this guy he done great works all over the world!;-)

[MCpEAsOUP]

Awsome songwriter/musician

[Jimmyj405]

saw him this summer here in London,a great show to say the least. Magic !!

[lindakhandro]

aahhhh...such music and heart...where IS that champagne?

[wcaterson]

Simply the best. If this was the last night of the world? I'd be listening to this song and embracing my love...

[ichiban2592007]

[girlonthegant]

i love this man al the way from ireland.. he is just unreal!!!

[lindabonita7]

When I first listened to this song I thought he sang, ¨Unless it was SHAGGIN´with you! Especially with his cute smirk... then I checked the lyrics! I´ve been a fan since the early 80´s. He´s a great musician and makes my spirit fly... thank you Bruce!!!

[zimmy81]

[togue777]

Very tight rendition of a great song. This is what years of non stop touring will do for you.Nice clip.

[RDanilein1985]

Amazing ^^

[burninbrighter]

At the very beginning of the video, is that woman in red related to Bruce? They have the same face lol

[YukonRoxx]

hahahahahahaha Nice man:)

Great song though hey? I'm lovin it

[ABlandino]

Seen Cockburn live at least 10 times. He makes one guitar sound like two. A lyrical and musicial genius. Relevant for the times. No one does it better...he challenges my perspectives

[scodug]

@ABlandino That's a cool comment....everyone's perspectives need to be challenged.

[hipsterpictures]

@ABlandino Been playing his music since I was 8, or trying to anyways. 10 years of playing later and his genius still eludes me, and most likely shall for some time.

[PresidentGackt]

I love this song and I can't stop listening to it . I am 25 and have only recently got into Cockburn but I love his stuff!

[voltakillerqueen]

@PresidentGackt Garbage

[gorillabelly1]

Finally, I now know the title to this song! Remember searching throughout his entire catalogue a while back with only a few of the words of the chorus in mind and, god damn it (!), came up short-handed. Great tune, live or recorded!

[veteransptsdportal]

Excellent performance! I would want to spend that night with Lisa.

[shinnpick]

I could listen to this song if it was the last night of the world!!!

[LymanBruno]

Bruces new solo live album comes out the end of march.check out lifes short call now vidieo. different when it comes to you

[AngusShanks]

He did this song on David Letterman, first time I ever heard it. Bought it the next day. I'd love to see that video someday. Beautiful song.

[themooddisorders]

@AngusShanks This was on Letterman? Never knew that

[AngusShanks]

@themooddisorders

No, it's not but I first saw it on Letterman. I wish I could get ahold of that footage. Great version from what I can recall.

[AngusShanks]

@themooddisorders

Yup. I had to do a double take. How the hell did Bruce get on ? I bet Paul is a fan and then there is the obvious Canuck connection. I wish they'd have him back. Call Me Rose could be a hit if he got that kind of exposure. Brought me near to tears when I saw it that night. Magic.

[VA7KSP]

Love that song! One of the great showcases of Bruce's style too. Thanks for posting.

[frenchmusician12]

Only Bruce can make a guitar sound like that!

[lingduay]

Mr. Cockburn is a national treasure.

[ArtGardenfunckle]

This has always rocked. A personal favorite. Thanks for posting this. Peace!

[Revumch]

Many, many thanks for posting these!  Great show, great musician.

[SongHighway]

Always a joy to see my older brother in concert.

[silversongma]

Bruce is your brother? Are you musical too? Always wondered...how many siblings does he have? Just curious. Is Bruce still with Sally?

[fngrpckr]

This is gold!!!! Thank you!

[kvnbrn]
