David Usher - St-Lawrence River Music Video

[urwutudowhenitcounts]

this song helped me through my grandpa's death, along with alcohol =(, not a single one of my surviving family members were the same after his death. It's funny how one person can be the lynchpin for a whole family; but we all seemed to fall apart after his death. it's hurtful how one can wish for death, do things destructive to one's body, and yet cling to life like it's worth something in the scheme of things.

[pdpayrollunion]

my band has a song called St Lawrence River too - very different though. Check it out: search for st lawrence river payroll union

[junmafia]

David usher one of the best from montreal !!! :P

[yoyomyhero]

just saw David and his band play at the Geraldton Jamboree and i must say it was the time of my life....what a beautiful man all around and an awesome band....i luv this song, its so beautiful <3

[mingacorre]

My friend lawrence help me a lot, he deserves to be helped too he held me down, this is a clue to the seven churches harbor house he is my friend, hes struggling. bergen st

[algoAzrael]

umm i think i named u both backwards... but the comments still count.. just switch ur names.

[avayomama]

Just so everyone knows... My sister worked with the real writer of this song in Winnipeg 15 years ago. He sold it to David Usher. it's about his girlfriend killing herself...i just think everyone should know the true meaning.

[atreyukicks]

@avayomama Totally reliable....some dude on youtube said it so it must be true. And his sister told him so it must have also been true then.

[algoAzrael]

@avayomama i have met the him and been to many concerts both of his solo work and before that when he was front man of moist. I gotta say I have serious trouble believing he would feel the need to put his name on a song he didn't pen. The man is brilliant, and in multiple languages no less.

@atreyukicks too right. Nail on the head.

[cambro64]

@avayomama Actualy I have never met the writer but he told me it was about a glass of Eggnog that he spilt and could never quite get over. I said it so it must be true.

[avayomama]

@cambro64 you guys can say what you want. but it doesn't change the fact that i'm telling the truth. lol i didn't realize there were so many people (who have never met the man) who would take my comment so personally and take time out of their day to hate on it even though they have no proof as to otherwise ... lol again, imply that i'm stupid all you want, but i am right and the "oh some guy on youtube said it so it must be true" comment, goes the other way too.

[cambro64]

@avayomama I never once implied that you were stupid nor was it me that made the highlited statement. I just won't believe some random person who cannot affectivley back up their statements on a medium such as this. I will, however, make this staement: "We should stop fooling ourselves and start fooling other people."

Cheers!

[TickleFightStudios]

i <3 :)

This song alwasy reminds me of my brother going away to University back when I was like 17, he used to listen to David Usher all the time and when my mom, dad, and I took him up to Sudbury for school this was the song that came on when we drove up to the University for our first visit during the winter. Now when i hear it, it reminds me of that moment and my bro.

[drogheda1966]

@strongfp A frozen moment. I'll bet that will be with you when your hair is gray. Few know you like a brother.

[TheTwoThumbs]

Solid by morning.

[ipi223]

one morning last year...woke up listen that song..go outdoor and see him...strange

[1Etre]

"I knew you'd be your own destroyer" ca me revient tjs en tete quand j'fais qqch qui de nefaste pour moi, me rappelant que si j'echoue c'est de la faute de personne d'autre que moi, malgre le faible lien entre ca et la tune... Ca revient encore ^^ Wise Lyrics Mr.Usher, tyvm.

[belcourtification]

marry me david usher :)

[freedomslastflight]

I just used to listen to song to remind me of a friend I once had.

[thedanking4201]

One of my most greatest influences i wish i could sing like him :)

[jbiebs1234]

thumbs up if dan kanter sent you here!

[darkelf63]

This and "Alone in the Universe" always strike a chord for me. Keep delivering the great music David.

[monimarz]

David has some truly amazing lyrics. He is a diamond in the rough of Canadian music. Before I listen to the melody of his music I always read the lyrics first, he is indeed a wonderful poet.

[avayomama]

true story....

my older sister worked with a dude in winnipeg manitoba 10 years ago that wrote this song about his fiance that overdosed in front of him and sold the song to david usher.... :( so sad....

[girlsneutral]

@avayomama that is super interesting if that's true

[RainbowThinn]

{Spent many a summer on the lusty shores of the St. Lawrence River and this song is a precious jewel.}

[Gumballspinweel]

This was one of the beautiful songs YOU tube! I love David Usher!! Wish he lived on St. Lawrence River all the time! It is sad when he packs up that guitar and put it back where he's going to live! Long live this man!

[jaoriprilj]

You can find old... balls. :) But only close to a certain side. ;)

[yourethefuckingbest]

Ahh j'aime tellement cette chanson là, je sais pas mais quand je l'entends, j'ai comme une grosse force en dedans de moi qui veut exploser... J'ai peut-être l'air folle (lol) mais c,est trop beau comme chanson !!!!

[BoyishMagus]

lol Amen, ptite soeur.

[BoyishMagus]

@jhahemz6

[ichbindag]

[Eggxpress]

I live on the south shore near the St-Laurence river :) What an amazing song. The St -Laurence in winter is amazing to see and very cold and humide. Thank you David Usher to make rich and beautiful music like you do. Merci.

[jaoriprilj]

I live in Boston and am fortunate enough to have seen the St. Laurence in both Winter AND Summer. Amazing, both times.

Montreal is such a great city and David Usher is the epitome of great. :)

Why the f*ck didn't he catch on in the U.S.?

Is he too good? :)

[yourethefuckingbest]

I live on St lawrence River's banks, and i wish i could met David ... This song is sooo deepp.. Amazing.

[sweetiejen84]

One of my favorite songs in the world. There's a beautiful sadness about it.

[erin1eillo]

I love this melody beautiful and surreal.

[DarkAuras]

[PalebyNature]

This is my favourite song from him. There's an awesome live version of it on the Hallucinations album.

[shygroove]

This song was so, so, 90's, St. Lawrence blvd. gettho, Basebin Studio (corner of rachel and St. Lawrence) and Montréal, that it brings tears to my eyes. Ahhh...the good old days.

[elvisacoustic]

I had to wait until i was in me late 30's before i was blessed with hearing this song. Just amazing!! please check out our live version and see what you think

[WTFisSailing]

[T3zx]

[ray051978]

I fucking love this song. David Usher is simple and brilliant.

[Jonnysister]

I live on the St. Lawrence River, and even if I didn't- this song is so beautiful. I could just cry.

[rommel19422003]

Great song, I went to SLU , class of 2002

[highpriestrsw2]

[nikki1669]

Solid by morning.

[rvpstudios]

Great Job David!

Roz

a Canadian, eh!

[naftafuel]

i cant believe he made a song with the name of that river lol, anyway is a nice river, i do kayak in summer (the rapids r fun) and in winter i take the truck over the frozen parts (really frozen with -17)

[Hard2Explain]

little song is of of his best albums, graet job!!!

[lucaspaul2003]

little songs (his first album) was recorded in his apartment...and i think so was the video...done on a low budget. But David really let his music speak...so pure and simple.

[abriefreflection]

i wish he was this good now.

[thorazine666]

GREAT LYRICS!

[beenzotarmie]

It's still his best song.  Such sweet sorrow. Video is great, just like the album. Homegrown.

[alanisnerd]

beautiful song. good job. vid doesn't outplay song, song doesn't outplay vid.

[angelbabii02]

it seems less professional because it's from his earlier days

still makes me want to cry

i seriously love this man

[jbell92]

I love this song.. its sooooo good

[MyDecember2006]

amazing song

[joyscry]

The music is still beautiful, as always, but it seems more like an amatuer video than professional...

I love the song, though. ^^ Great job.
