[supertrampMS]

[Transpacity]

audio is gone?!

[3liteX]

check out the non live version, made by me with images to go with the song. /watch?v=bYY1Won1tEA

[kleckshexe]

I hear clapping at the beginning and then nothing. Too bad. What happened to the sound here? I love the Weakerthans. Saw them live in 2008, lying of a meadow in the sun, and feeling their music go right through me from the stage and from the ground. Wonderful experience.

[pneu182]

still no sound....

[kerblam]

no sound here also... :(

[iconoclast123]

yea what happened to the sound??

[Darrirafn]

no sound?

[zkhandwala]

I don't think I'd quite realized how thin John Samson is.

[revton3197]

makes me think about Sudbury

[quietpopcorn]

Since hearing this song so many years ago, this song never ceases to amaze me.

[erinismybabe]

I seen them live over a year ago, and it feels like years.

I miss them.

Please come back to Saskatchewan.

[evangarcia92]

To me, there's not many songs sadder than this.

[justiceistobe]

Danced the first dance at our wedding to this one just under 2 weeks after this concert - fit the couple very well. :) Hence one of my favorite songs. Keep it up boys! Genius.

[thejoamiq]

WOW they look so young. I almost didn't believe this was really them at first.

[Dudemag]

sweet slapshot shirt

[xuxu21]

[abluishrose]

is your screen name shitty? because it should be, because your comment was pure shitty!!!!

[thecro21]

true that, have to hand it to ya!

[moopuff]

lolwut

[Intoxikateing]

Good lord The Weakerthans are so fabulous. Such lyrical genius I'm actually jealous, haha. What I'd give to be able to write like that!

I'd also give a leg to see them live....maybe if I write them a sincere letter they will come to Newfoundland...??

[HTSamurai]

yeah i think most of us who like em would agree that the lyrical content is some of the best of the last 10-20 years.

[Korsko5]

You know, it sucks. I passed them up once when they came to Regina...

I wasn't really into them, and then they just rocked to me basically when they left.

[Jmulder84]

awesome.....Im speechless

[gardneross]

This song always brings me home, they capture the Canadian praries so subtly and perfectly! Definitely my favorite song, from my favorite album of all time. Can't wait to see them again.

[EmEyeSeeEiEeElEi]

This is the song that made me fall in love with this band.

[gdrugg2006]

What kind of guitar is John using? I really love the sound.

[hossamadonna]

He has an Ibanez Talman!

[pizzaexpresss]

my God they're great!

[DMoney64]

Haha, if you are from winnipeg you'll recognize which school's cross country team he was on...

[winnipeghud]

haha kelvin, thats my school:P

[scaredweepel]

can't wait for the gig at Leeds next month!!!

[scaredweepel]

the gig was bloody awesome!

[HelicoptersNotAngels]

wanna know what's sad? i must have asked at least 100 of my friends/acquaintances at my school if they've ever heard of the weakerthans... and i got not not one single 'yes'. such a shame. they're so amazing, and this song is gorgeous.

and they're coming to Cleveland friday... but i don't think i can go! "( i'm terribly disappointed.

[loveblanket]

These guys remind me of mash-up of old school Saves the Day and Bedhead

[apetimberlake]

RETARD

[beeboydance]

yeah, retard.

[beeboydance]

and they'll be in winnipeg december 22nd. the final stop for their tour.

[xuxu21]

They are coming to SF next wednesday — I'll be recording the show again! I can't belive it has been 5 years since this recording.

[beeboydance]

john k. samson is a god!

[nufan3303]

pretty hard not to cry with this song on

[SteakSalad]

I love these guys, saw them in Ohio. Beautiful music. Good video, thanks.

[daxman2121]

i wish they'de come to calgary, i'm sure they've been here but i only just got into the weakerthans cause a friend beat me with indy!

[attlantice]

[daxman2121]

yah i just read in FFW magazing the other day, can't wait. gonna supprise my friend who got me addicted with tickets, it's like a week after his birthday

[luyendao]

i first heard this song when the tv show and another radio show ZeD/ Radio 3 both were heading to their demise. It was the end of good times, friendship and the starting of something new...

[simonhead666]

That club is in a scetchy part of town!!

[Zarellamitzett]

Me sitting in the room of my best friend in a quiet village in summer in germany. Listening to left and leaving on vinyl. Smiling quietly at each other. Not a word. Just the music. Just one month before finishing school. This pain in my chest. new words for old desires.

[Dilutedled]

Bravo! I wish they'd come back to Canada and tour...

[silenttodd]

back to canada? huh? did they move??????;)
