My Music at work - Music At Work - The Tragically Hip

[Procoptodon]

I feel like these guys keep writing solid songs. I mean we all have our fave records, but I feel like each record is super thoughtful and great in its own way.

[paperclip121]

working with gord downie looks like too much of a fun job

spontaneous synchronized dancing. amazing.

[artistawake]

to determine where you are in a sink full of ganges....

:)

[InvisibleChicken999]

who knew gord downey worked inside a Fantastic4 Comic book at least he doesn't have a Balanka face it it's over purple now so Sym can climb up and tell x-men parrells and spyro differecial equation equal green guy in all our systems blue guys good 2.

[spyroth]

This brings back so many memories.

[NightTrain87]

Downie is fucking GOD.

Period.

[dumorius]

Couldn't have said it better myself.

[kehoefam]

The Hip havn't been good since Fully Completely. Music at work is horrible and their new stuff is worse. I LOVE there old stuff I just wish they would have continued to make great music

[jackylcale]

C'mon bro. Yeah, some of the newer stuff is a little pretensious, but the guy is bright, you can't expect him to stick to writing songs for people eatin 5c wings for his whole life....

[Wanderlustus]

oh, go poop on yourself.

[Hotdogpot]

This song reminds me of working the night shift at a at a gas station or cold beer and wine, and being under a camera the whole time and just wanting to fucking break it off the wall, and tell the boss that I want a panic button...the kind that has a trigger and clip! Although, it is fun to just make funny faces at the camera sometimes.

[johnlennonfan1980]

I FUCKING LOVE EM!

they'll never get old

[tophergod]

if only the Leafs could play as well as the Hip!

[MilicaJedrilica]

Such a shame that such a brilliant band came out of the same country as Nickelback :|

[oldstock1607]

I know it's not creative, but I call them "Suckleback"

[MilicaJedrilica]

Maybe not creative but definitely true! :)

[Wanderlustus]

I take it you're refering to Picklesnack?

[oldstock1607]

indeed I am.

[chrissept21]

@MilicaJedrilica nother wrong with nickelback

your just joining all the other idiots that say the dont like nickelback

[Tr0llsNeverDie]

fuck nickelback.

[chrissept21]

fuck.........um......you

[Tr0llsNeverDie]

go fuck yaself.

[ofme21]

How did this vampire prick get my email?

[cometdust]

I posted this once and got flamed for it. But I think of this as Canada's REM.

[superbadlucre]

Thinking something doesn't make it so.

*looks behind him for Teri Hatcher covered in whipped cream*

No, it does not.

[samuelbarber]

lead singers look the alike and they do kind of sound the same i guess

[macro8tk]

no, its TH

[mrbill1000]

other then the lead singers (especially what they do on stage) i don't see much other resemblance.

[jessico690]

I have loved this band 4 ever i memorized new orleans is sinking when i was 4 years old just saw them in concert U GUYS ROCK

[ofme21]

oh, oh, oh. The pitch is in. What did y0u do. I think you may have been deleted.

[666vampirik]

hehe, you thinks so?

[HeidiPrinze]

We are retarded.

[caseyfacehead]

hahaha we already saw them when they had 6 shows in toronto and we went backsage and met gord downie and rob baker ha haha. we got pictures. nice guys

[LumpyBedWetter]

#1 Canadian band

[HondaChad]

#1 Band, period!

[Scr0d3]

shit man theses guys are coming to winnipeg and are playing 4 Shows!!! thats intense, 3 sold out.

[Truthiness231]

Best... band... ever... (with maybe the exception of The Beatles (maybe))

[andymac419]

BARELY second to the Beatles

[metalgod2347]

i'm just gonna say it. i prefer the Hip to the Beatles.

[chinarace]

is it just me ? but i dig it when the boss

bust gord at the photo copier his manorisims

[Gizzeyo88]

rad video, one of my faves!!! the hip rocks my world!!

[hosemasterg]

gotta love the hip! i mean what other band comes up with these lyrics to such a beat? awesome song, great video

[howardstern5]

gotta love those old Macs on their desks haha

[Almosthip7]

Love The HIp

[patrickikis]

I'm gonna go buy their new album right now....Not fucking kidding!

[hosemasterg]

awesome song, video is just as good!!

[brud9]

unfuckin real...

[MissNoName77]

You guys are amazing! Can't wait to see you at Massey Hall on May 16th. :)))))

[codystahlmann]

the hip is 1 of the best yes but not the best i love this band but i also love slipknot

[TheWhiteCanuck]

the hip is not only the best Canadian band ever, they're also the best band in the world.

[z1gz4gb1u3FTW]

I agree.

[oldphoque]

I don`t know about that. What I do know is this song`s lyrics could have been Cantonese. the SOUND was awesome. The vocals harmonized perfectly. I fell in love with this song instantly without knowing what the hell they were saying till I bought the CD and got hold otf the lyrics. Still. Next to RUSH, best Canadian band. World? forget it! I think Stones, Beatles, Who, Doors, Zeppelin and Kinks may have to differ.

[cordb]

Compared to the bands that are making music now...the Hips is one of the best...

or maybe you enjoy billy talent n good charlotte and other trash like that?

i doubt that is the case though ahha, if you like the 60s n 70s bands then im sure you're smarter then that...However, i must point out that you forgot Hendrix and Floyd, can't be forgetting greats like that now can we

[KincardineKilla]

easily the best

[Caroninjax]

i dissagree, they're up there. but Rush is more talented than the hip.

[MissNoName77]

ITA!!!

[jaimeraim]

Yes!!

Love The Hip.... and this video is just so damn enjoyable.

[scaryteri8]

Brilliant video! A song for the cynical office employee.

[themasterbakerrr]

Bruce McCulloch from Kids in the Hall directed this video. :)

[amigodesonko]

This is certainly their best power ballad. Love it!

[mrocean468]

this was the first Hip song i saw a video for, a couple yrs ago

[madball8]

Kingston...Ontario.. my sister dated the guitar player! queens university

[bobbyjumper]

They definatly are Canadian!

[Mattman003]

Are they a Canadian group? Just curious

[sfyke]

haha, its like canadas pride. all we have is this, hockey, and a sense of moral superiority.

[mrocean468]

don't for get the trailer park boys

[darkmoon21]

And the west coast has some of the best weed in the world, I know we're all damn proud of that over here! :P

[Wideopenthrottle56]

HHAHAAHAHH  fucken right

[footinmouthindustrys]

none of the hip's songs make any sense but that doesn't mean they don't rock

[raina873]

if go on the website the hip museum type it in in google it tells you wat all hte lyrics mean there are lots of metaphors and hiddem messages wit in the lyrics blow at high dough means- you cant walk before you can crawl!

[themasterbakerrr]

This video was directed by Bruce McCulloch, and the woman at 1:29 looks a lot like Laura from the Bob sketches, lol.

[avoidantconsumer]

that's bruce's wife. :)

[JohnnyFever00]

This is how I've always pictured working in a call centre -- mind-numbingly boring, some a-hole looking over your shoulder all the time, all the while hoping for a heart attack to put you out of your misery (or at least some good dope to let you escape to a better place for a little while).

[boombing1]

Your exactly right, except the assholes over your shoulder shout retarded sayings like 'make sales people' or 'who wants to make money today' to try and motivate you. Its pretty much like being cattle being poked and prodded by redneck cowboys. Oh yeah and some dope is not enough, copious amounts are needed.

[CrazyMaggs]

Hey johnnyFever...you got that right. Been there, but thankfully escaped...ahahahahh!!!!

[WavelengthRose]

you are tooooo funny!!!

[wadetimebaby]

my uncle is in the video

[comicconn]

Herb Tarlick - at 1:40

[JohnnyFever00]

There's a resemblance, but it's not Herbert because the guy in this vid is not wearing a cheap polyester suit and is not hitting on one of the female workers.

[SillySandCrab]

I Love It, I love It, Lets dance! I love it or I'd get my ass kicked! I love it! Get grinding! Thanks Quetz! She got low! I love it!

[Quetzie21]

Thats right Silly...dance!!!! You better love it, thats right GRIND it baby. I got low, how low can you go...???

[SillySandCrab]

I can grind my sweet butt three inches thru a hardwood floor and still do a head spin leaning back. I'm bad, I'm nationwide!

[Quetzie21]

Eveybody out of your cubicles and DANCE!!!

[goodbye41]

great fucking song, got me through some SHIT days at work lol

[webbsworld17]

hi this is kool

[jennyhootoo]

iTunes says i've listened to this song 178 times!

... and yes, i do have more than one song :P haha

i remember this song from when i was a youngin', in the beaten up nissan, it playing on the cassette, crusin with the windows down :)

[superbadlucre]

DAMN can't believe I forgot this song I used to love it! I'm listening to all the old Hip songs, and they are timeless. Seriously this song is so good.

[bobzare]

Only 13,010 views? Come on.

Thanks guys, song takes me back to those dreadful midnights on the border on a cold winter Canadian evening "keeping order restored."

[Onlydreamin1959]

Sorry, it doesn't get much warmer unless you're "keeping order restored" in the summer. Then you'll sweat. There's no in-between. And yes, there should be more views but the Hip isn't all that known outside of Canada.

[twopie2]

People that say they love thier job need to find something else in their lives. You shouldnt hate your job, and i like my job but i dont wake up on Monday morning thinking i am so excited to go in to work today.......i would say only about 2% of the poulation could say they love their job, mabey like pro athletes or entertainers.

live to work or work to live?

[Brick663]

damn i glad i love my job!!

[risen27]

no you dont

[Brick663]

[risen27]

[BellaBeauJanggles]

[trickrider123]
