The Tragically Hip - 50 Mission Cap

[Franklinn2000]

Amazing album! Canada's finest!

[bwho]

Gord's vocals are absolutely awesome in this video! What a performer, brilliant work!! Dig it!

[Bieberbroadcast]

just saw the hip gords CRAZY love it

[SolubleSound]

Used to hate Gord's voice.

BUT I WAS A FOOL THEN.

[TXmetalhead72]

Canada ...this is good music eh ...lmao think the cold has gotten to all of u eh?

[oliviaaabraaash]

@TXmetalhead72 fucking faggot stfu i think the heats got you confused . lol u dont like the hip then ur a faggot.

[TXmetalhead72]

RIP Bill...at least he never had to hear this song

[TXmetalhead72]

Poor Bill ...this song is stupid ..its like reading a news report to music..

[fizzypopism]

@TXmetalhead72 Why ya gotta break balls eh?

[RobInTDot]

@TXmetalhead72 No, it's not like a news report set to music. If you pay attention, at 1:06 Gord very clearly states that he "stole this from a hockey card". So it's like reading a hockey card to music, not a news report.

And if you don't like it - good! We don't need people with no taste listening to The Hip. It demeans us all. Now go bang your head 72 times in prostration to your silly metal gods.

@TXmetalhead72 This song's not stupid, you're fucking stupid.

[highgroundstrike]

I'm trying to download this to my Droid but I can't find it can someone where to find it thanks

[51actual]

Gord...it's 50 mission crush.....50 MISSION CRUSH!!!!....great band...great song.

[Kroy5312]

I find it pretty funny that Canadians type "Eh" at the end of their sentences. It is one thing to say it all the time, but writing it is a whole other level.

[hophoopine]

@Kroy5312 hahaha funny guy eh?

[MrCharnie]

love the sweat

[Doofman17]

makes me proud to be canadian

[bwho]

I love to watch the girl with blond hair trying to get her friend's attention while Gord is doing the 'Him...here...now' rant at the end. Cracks me up. That's truly loving hockey and really wanting your fave team to win another Cup, dudes and dudettes.

[TheWonderSock]

So cool how Gord starts going into 'Grace Too' at the end

[bwho]

A true master at work. Watch Gordon sing here. As we would want a singer to do he really concentrates on deliverying the goods. Awesome playing of this song! Dig it, it's really quite Hip!

[philipstephenbird]

if toronto wins another cup all of toronto will be rioting but 10x worse than 93 when the habs won it lol

[fredgarvin19]

Love the hip. Only they could write a song about something so rare as the Leafs winning the cup.

[Saccojoe]

Das Hip!!!!!

[bwho]

Now, Gord's a man who REALLY LOVES his hockey! Ya gotta admire the devotion. He sure makes some awesome tunes. Glad he didn't just concentrate on hockey and become a talking head commentator/pundit or something, eh?

[RiRa211]

weird that they won the cup, eh?

[Denthedragon]

Just once! JUST ONCE MORE! that's all i ask, just one more time that they win the cup, not asking for much

[ringodingo]

That'll be great for Canada when the Leafs win The Cup again.

[Annonymus121]

me to lmao just once :D

[LDeezy223]

the song is an odd and very accurate commentary because it probably is the nations most beloved hockey team and yet Barilko's last years were some of the last hurrah's, they won 3 more in the 60's and have been irrelevant since. Some make the argument that the league got bigger and they had terrible ownership, but still it doesn't really compute that the biggest city in Canada with deep pockets hasn't been able to procure another Stanley Cup in 44 years or whether they will in fact win another.

[M3lloW55]

live until you die.

[st0rn]

why did he say that the song was called " flag on your napsack "?

[jeffrie2]

what do canadians do when they backpack around the world? put their flag on their napsack.

he is using the phase as a metaphor saying that this song represents canadian music. which it does...at its best =)

remember they are playing in front of a bunch of rabid candians at ontario place

[cigarmikey]

my old man had a heart attack and died in a drive in work facility near Barilko's crash, my son was born in Toronto and at the time of his birth "50 Mission Cap" began to play, just as he came out ceasarean and I have appeared on the 75 th anniversary video, thats cool eh?

[Crisco30029]

your father dying of a heart attack is cool? heh

[ScarFaceFantasy]

Weird how they won the cup the same year he was discoverd EH?

[leafan519]

cochrane is in ontario, GO LEAFS, HIP RULE!!!!!!

[canadiannut93]

GO LEAFS GO!!

[1v2h3f]

WHERE WAS HE DISCOVERED

[zigzag789789]

60 miles north of cochrane quebec.

[MYNHLNETWORK]

in ot 3-2

[lehockj755]

i hate the leafs but this song is pretty good

[zigzag789789]

no no no no

[Worrallthegreat]

By far the best song ever written about a hockey player :)

[wiggywoo75]

i can't believe that of all the most recent comments posted about this song, they're all about the leaf's and not about bill. sorta sad leafs fans. if you were true leaf's fans, shouldn't there be a bit more commentary towards the man who wore the jersey? not just the team? cjvs1604, you're cool. lol

[goleafsgo216]

GO LEAFS GO!!

[Xanrry]

Go Leafs, the Cup should be yours within the next few years

[thuggar]

LEAFs RULE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[JCMoney]

Except that they suck. ;-)

[Parosa55]

Go leafs go!

[deko00701]

brillient song

[cjvs1604]

RIP billy, you made us all proud.

GO LEAFS GO!

[glacia]
