Gordon Lightfoot - Carefree Highway

[titom020]

Don't wanna watch this high!!! Trust me! :)

[TheEldoradoKid]

Nothing like being seranaded by a Freightliner, I wonder how he does Whiteline Fever?

[ASeasonedWitch]

Cute. Cute.

Thinking perhaps the truck is singing about Christine, King's evil automobile.

[dfair87]

I love it! Especially how the headlights/eyes change expression. The song and video are works of art.

[KFCVideos1]

The song and the video is a classic. Job well done! Thank you for sharing!

[mrquackadoodlemoo]

never watch this stoned

a tractor trailer singing a gordan ligthfoot song

[lookin610]

Youtube is very awsome for the music lovers in the world.I have heard alot of songs I never would of even thought about listening too!Music soothes the soul!

[beehive41]

What would I do without youtube? I love most music and I know I spend more time on here than I should but I'm hooked on music and youtube has it! Gordon Lightfoot was always pleasure to listen to. Thanks for posting and thanks for youtube!

[craig7233]

Absolutely first rate song. So so video.

[Psychoholic80]

I love this song!

Great job on the animation too!!

[poeavor]

Like the way he rocks to the sides with the music as he sings...great video!

[jimmydeboy]

great video - well done on the posting , the song and Mr Lightfoot are pure talent

[VIZIOE32]

THIS IS A GREAT VIDEO, FANTASTIC ANIMATION WORK,

[motherlady]

That road looks a lot like the I-10 near Desert Center

[Antithropocentric]

Kind of a corny vs. how I always envision the song. I'd have at least made the road recede behind the truck to emulate driving.

[AAAAPATRICKAAAA]

lol I actually live on carefree highway where he got the inspiration to write this song :D

[partypianoplayer]

Great song... :)

[shawnluvszombies]

scary ass nigga truck.

[ballrub]

deep in my soul.

[pbrucpaul]

Love this song! Gordon lightfoot is a terrific balladeer. You can just see yourself going down a highway in America.

[jasonnwest]

optimus!!

[Lightavion]

Love the song, but that truck...it haunts...

[MrCagekicker]

i had to bail the truck out of Minnesota jail for this gig

[djk28161]

the waitress is brain dead

[themasterofmovies]

this guy has too much time on his hands lol

[notafanofrosebud]

Such sweetness expressed in a song, most surprisingly by a peterbilt.

[cristoforo50]

great song with a whimsical video...

[dustymiller65]

Keep on truckin' good buddy; thanks for posting this song! ☺

[angryniggah]

Semi good

[DritteGeiger]

I suppose the Peterbilt 281 from "Duel" would have been out of the question! lol. Thank you!

[silvermittweasle]

that is so silly! I love it! :D

[transaxll]

how did you get my Mother in-law to sing this for you? Hehe.

[sonicmouth]

I love it, fantastic job. Thanks for putting a smile on my face!

[ThePete352]

Beautiful Song and A VERY Beautiful PETE 379EXHD

[ZRSmetalgrooves]

Beautiful song

[avdreader1]

wonderful "breezy" song. I love Gorden Lightfoot!

[TheSuperbird43]

This song reminds me of when me and my girlfriend used to cruise the

roads of Portland Maine, It was so beautiful on chilly late fall saturday

afernoon listening to this song. My girlfriend would actually start crying

because she loved it so much. She would have me crying my eyes out

trying to calm her down. I actually started crying because of the memories

of her and I It brought Back Every time i hear this song it reminds me of

her and how much I miss Portland Maine and want to go home

[AwesomeMullet69]

@TheSuperbird43 Ha! I live in Southern Maine, you ain't missing much!

[auntjojo1980]

thanks 4 the memories..love this song "-)

[cornearbornatortoise]

this truck visits tampa every time i pass by. only explanation for the multilane highway becoming a parking lot every time.haha but at least its a good song.

[SiCkScOpEs101]

WTF LOVE THE SONG HATE TRUCKZ

[simpleman1260]

@SiCkScOpEs101

Why, did your mother run off with a trucker?... Oh, and love your spelling of Trucks ( truckz)

[SiCkScOpEs101]

@simpleman1260 thankz lolz

[pbrucpaul]

I like to play this in my head when i'm rocketing along on a Yamaha FZ6R on Carefree highway in Arizona. Sweet.

[1900zack]

Canada? is any one is canada not Gay?

[jfsa380]

@1900zack yes, and the basis of that is...?

[jayleaf66]

Flagstaff Arizona to Phoenix on Interstate 17 is a great drive.

[jayleaf66]

Great Song

[dannydutchboy2011]

ah is that truck singing ? lol glad i dont smoke weed ha ha

[BrahnTheHandyMan]

@dannydutchboy2011 Why? What would it matter if you were baked outta your mind?

[kommon12Cents]

@dannydutchboy2011 Glad I do.

[dannydutchboy2011]

hmm interesting choice? i like this guy

[dasani367]

I love the song, but damn that truck is fucking creepy!

[bradmonium1]

What a majestic voice. Amazing.

[ModernGolfer]

Why would any dumbass put this beautiful song to a "singing semi"? Oh, well, just goes to show ya the "IQ same as hat size" mentality of a lot of hillbilly truckers! LMAO!

[chikinmommy]

@ModernGolfer i believe the truck is being used as a symbol to the lyrics about the carefree highway. truck drivers have a lot of time to reflect on their life's event and how much time is slipping away and what they r missin and some have been on the road so long they dont remember people they should

[70Kenny]

That Peterbilt has a great voice. Who was Ann? an International? They met in the back row of the Albuqureque TA? Makes sense. I can't recall the faces of the Anns I met there, either.

[LibTyrMatrix2011]

This song is so stupid.

[vernhaga]

@LibTyrMatrix2011 your a tastless dumbass

[cougar1780]

great song man

[forensicgirl]

This is great!

[imjustpassinthru]

I was truckin' back then when that song was new.

[mamalamahawaii]

My brother drives a truck. He would love this. CUTE!

[MissMom4evr]

I love this song. I just heard it for the first time a few days ago and I always thought he was saying 'Every Highway' because the way he said carefree sounded like every. It's a great song.

[sighkit]

Amazing talented Gordon Lightfoot ;)

Cute singing truck, thanks for posting this. LOL @ fgsitwhgh's comment about not needing the radio, I agree totally.

[TheVagabond7]

45 people expected to hear John Ratzenberger.

[takeitoutify]

I wish this would enter American Idol.

[zendishwasher2]

i have rode this highway more than once, but i hope to not ride it again.

[JudyismToday]

Was trying to remember this song, so when I found it...I listened for quite a while before I noticed the truck was SINGING....LOL, it cracked me up. Thanks for the music and for the laugh~*

[xtremefight]

Careless freeway

[omaryague]

very nice :)

[BardOfEarth]

Good quality animation and sound track. Thanks ! Clever.

[cbtaken]

Pretty cute video!

[uscgccampbell]

One of the finest songwriters EVER. I have just about every album he has produced and I have been listening for 43 years now. Saw him in concert. wonderful

[PudgeMountin5000]

Dude think you can do Hot Rod Lincoln by commander cody with a lincoln roadster singing.

[Sunspree]

Cute and a great song as well...thanx for posting! :)

[yourgodwillbowtous]

youd love this one Collin! Ill bet you would even like the song!

[89s10lvr]

is it me or does that truck have sasky plates on it???

[DontBeATeabagger]

"If you got it, a truck brought it!"

[69RedRooster]

So many of us playin' on our big wheels, with our hot wheels or matchbox- there was someone providin' for us- and we didn't care what he did for a living back then, or where the money for the hot wheels came from- Thanks to all our Dad's who did it for us.. Thank You, Pop-

[yippee42]

@69RedRooster Well said.Hotwheels paved the way for the motorheads/car builders out of necessity for today.This county has to survive somehow through its auto/motorcycle aftermarket.

[69RedRooster]

@yippee42 There was a time when this country built not only cars, but products that we were proud of. The automotive industry gave our families jobs. We made things that lasted the test of time. Maybe we don't know where we'll end up, but at least we know where we started.

[yippee42]

@69RedRooster Yeah buddy,I am hoping that the american auto V-8/Harley-Davidson engine aftermarket will survive in this country.Class of 86 here(high school)where I did have vocational school for 1 yr auto engine repair,2 yrs auto systems(brakes,electrical,susp­ension,etc).Still held dear to my heart as well as CAR CRAFT,POPULAR HOTRODDING magazines that are still in circulation to encourage American V-8 engines installed in reinforced,unibody,musclecar badasses,tearin' it up across the USA.

[jdh1094]

Has a slight overbite, doesn't it?

[pharden69]

Love this song! Love the singing truck!! =)

[livingthelava]

Cute and fun, thanks for posting it....

[Moonstarr72]

I live right off Carefree Highway, I have NEVER seen a singing truck like this ;o hahaha.

[pwc7475]

great vid! great song!

sorry to the sask guys but i was born outside quebec city so i'm an alouettes fan. oooooh thats gotta hurt, TWICE.

[Myrtle791]

Dave here. @quirpco: And besides, I'd hate to meet him on the road. He takes his half out of the middle.

[elfinforest09]

... why don't you feel sorry for yourself again, and not pick up the phone for 30 + years?... silly me... must be my fault. jade

[quirpco]

I don't think I want a truck like that. Not only would it need regular maintenance and repairs, but I'd have to brush and floss its teeth, and I'd probably have to get dental insurance for it on TOP of the truck insurance!

[RandyGPS]

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! Bad trip!

[tonopahbarry]

where do i get one of them trucks?!

[usedforspam37]

CAREFREE!!!!!!

[pullinpete]

how do you do this ?

[smoovelikewallyshoe]

That truck is a phat one !!! Gordon Lightfoot Rulez !!!

[asamojomaster]

43 people need to be hit by a truck on the carefree highway

[ApocalypsePlough]

First time I've ever seen a truck sing.

You've gotta zoom in real close to see, but, yeah, Saskatchewan license plates. Perfect.

I've been watching some of your other videos ..... never seen anything like 'em.

Subscribed.

[finsfan45]

I got the Sundown album 4 months after my father died when I was 9. Gordon and his music kept me going. What a song!

[DaveWollenberg]

Thanx, Bob, for another great vid. Gordon hit #10 in Billboard, 11-9-74. God bless ya, Bob, for postin' it!

[glimmer2158]

the days of carefree highways are over with the advent of seamless global surveillance. 

[growgar1]

as soon as the price of gas goes down again,the truck is contracted to sing,once more.

[KimberlyST]

Love Gordon Lightfoot I grew up listening to him..My parents would always play his 8 tracks while on our way from Texas to Minnesota every summer....Those were some wonderful days!!!!

[7466309change]

first truck to sing to me.ha ha ha.

[orinemma1]

All I got is a stupid Yaris that sings Barber Shop Quartet with one singer three quarters of a step flat. This video, I hate to say, is cute. Good job. Good tune. Just don't do Convoy, OK?

[Myrtle791]

Dave here, again. Blast the "covers!"  And forget the audience participation, I just want to hear the studio originals. Guess I'm a purist, but it's almost always the studio productions that I first heard and enjoyed.

[Myrtle791]

Dave here.  Cute animation. Seems to me the teeth should part more when he sings the word "highway." Otherwise I like it.

[kasdave]

One of my all time favorite songs... my brother had the album.... I think I wore it out.

Have it on CD nowdays.

Great video. Well done.

[bjbuschman2]

my dad had a kenworth that sang movin on

[ecb2]

It would be more badass if the truck was actually moving down

the highway. Great song tho.

[777shaitan666]

Haha yeah Saskatchewan plates! Great song.

[diamondsammy12]

43 people can KMA!!! This is a GREAT video!!! Oh... excuse me... the phone is ringing... oops, it's their asses calling... they want their heads back!!! lol!

[Ronbo710]

Yo Pete ... one word - invisalign .

[diamondsammy12]

Even a Peterbilt can make me cry... how pitiful am I?... lol!

[MrJByrne3]

Cool animation and great song!

[yamahonkawazuki]

if you can get the sunshades to wink or move youd have it 100%. well done

[Englishhegemony]

PLEASE CAN SOMEONE UPLOAD 'BLUENOSE'

[EMISSARYOFGROWTH]

great job with the truck!!! Now imagine a Harley .

[diamondsammy12]

@EMISSARYOFGROWTH YAY!!! Let's slip along the Pacific Coast on PCH!!! : )

[DanimalThe]

Great job on this video. Awesome.

[diamondsammy12]

Nothing sings it better than a Peterbuilt!!!

[gerardberk]

a great song, period

[whowantstogetnaked]

you should make the truck look like it's moving too . That'd be awesome!

[SteveK9797]

Canada's Greatest Original Music Artist Ever....Gordon LightFoot a Proud Humble Canadian...Who Never Looks For Attention...Keep Us Proud Gordon... Canadians and People Around The World Cherish On What Class Is All About !!! :)

[HereticThreads]

Gordon isn't just a Canadian legend, he's a legend, period.

[diamondsammy12]

Through my tear filled eyes, I have to laugh at the animation... THANK YOU!!! : )

[frostedhead]

I wonder how many serial killers, murdered to this song...

[jsilence418]

@mrspiderturd We all spend too much time on the opinions of those who really don't have one! the ones that like this know the diff that's all that matters.

[happierjack]

This is OK, but it would be better if the truck was moving down the carefree highway. But good job.

[Boombox1967]

I don't know if anyone noticed or not, but that truck has Saskatchewan plates on it! Home sweet Home!!

[hammeron39]

@Boombox1967 yeh, . . Im from Medicine hat , displaced in New Mexico , how I miss my dear Canada

[diamondsammy12]

@hammeron39 ... but, we're glad to have you here in the States... why don't you slip away to CA...? You're always welcome here... : )

[cattime1]

@Boombox1967  really? then why are you all down in florida,making everyone's lives miserable with your horrific driving?

[mccoobs]

@Boombox1967 lol

[tannerpetrie]

@Boombox1967 GGOOO RRRIIDDEEERRRSSS

[tannerpetrie]

@Boombox1967 GGOOO RRRIIDDEEERRRSSS



[MrMrtiki]

@Boombox1967 First thing I noticed .

[ralvarez15]

@Boombox1967 How did you notice that? The words on the plate look hard to see.

[xristo702]

@Boombox1967

Damn straight I noticed.

Rider Pride Baby!

[TheRedrivervally]

@xristo702 Fuck the riders!!! I love saskatchewan though. Land of the Living Skies!! The praires will always be in my heart.

[sprfitter1]

Take it for what it's worth. Some body did some thing different. What you done lately?

[gfurrow]

I finally got to see Gordon in concert last night in Knoxville - He was really great and I certainly hope it won't be the last.

[xxartisticxx]

I think I saw the same truck when I went to the Mojave desert and dropped some acid.

[MegaDerek2011]

@xxartisticxx it's mack for cars

[Zaxxon2008]

i was just lookin for some Gordon with SOME volume... you gave me THAT much... other than that, this was AWFUL!!!!

and kinda gay

[rottentommy]

Optimis Prime 

[DasGoldenBoy]

@rottentommy rejected concept from Pixar's "Cars"

[sodbuster925]

WTF?????lol

[QAHN1]

shit video, great song.

[mitchdfla]

Shame that truck in "Duel" didn't sing while it chased Dennis Weaver...

[TheMidnightBell07]

@mitchdfla Hey, LOL that was a good one

[mitchdfla]

@TheMidnightBell07 Thanks! Somethin' tells me that the truck in "Duel" would be more likely to sing Black Sabbath than Gordon Lightfoot, though

[Blackwolff9]

@mitchdfla:Woulda been scarier if it did!

[pandora6666]

The video was cute :)

[yippee42]

Wanderlust...a word for doing what you have to do.

[screwyou4]

wonder if it bites?

[skiptomile]

its funny when human beings put faces into things..

[The166899]

this is a perfect example that transformers exist

[preseferguson]

OXOXOXOXOXWINNER!!!!!!:))))))

[brainsareus]

trucky tricky truck love dudes

[preseferguson]

@brainsareus love it:)very cute:)))))

[fgsltwhghobstwbihsnp]

If more trucks sang like this one, we would never have to turn on the radio...

[frostmoon50]

@ Rottentommy, That is so frickin' funny....I about fell out of my chair ROTFLMFAO!!!!!

I just got to go to your channel, if your this funny here, you've got to be kick ass there !!!!! ALSO THANK YOU FOR THIS GREAT SONG, GORDON DOES NOT KNOW HOW TO SING A BAD SONG!!!!!! 

[chaseman12]

nice grill

[RedAntBlackAnt]

Pigs, piglets...very smooth...piglets, water vapor, not smoke....pigs, hogs, swine, very cool. Pigs, hogs, this one cartridge will get me through the whole day. Pigs, hogs, very smooth too.

[ztup1969]

41 people love rene simard

[jennyboerding]

I came back from the restroom and saw this truck singing, thought my flu had made me hallucinate! haha! great!

[brainsareus]

i've got a sense of humor, and i'm not a purist when it comes to art,but i am not particularly moved by this little animation treatment. it's not horrible,it's not a sin against humankind,but to be honest, its not my kind of thing. maybe if i were a six year old boy again,then again maybe not. then again,i really don't like videos period,we should each be able to use our imagination, and make our own video in our head, without the need for visual training wheels.

[blahvlah9]

@brainsareus that's such a stupid comment. its about the song, he didn't make the video to show how good he is at making animated videos.. it's about sharing such a good song..

[brainsareus]

@blahvlah9 i don't know what the hell you are talking about. you are having a good time, talking to yourself. your comment, has virtually nothing to do with my comment. why make a video,at all then, if it is not about the video on some level ? you are assuming a whole bunch of nonsense. my main point was to critique videos in general,not to put this one down. you can share a song, without an image,do you get that. i don't mind being critcized,but really, come on now.

[TheSaskachewan1]

What software did you use to do this?

[screwyou4]

all these years i thought it was Every Highway

[yamahonkawazuki]

@screwyou4 So did my friend at work. this highway is IMMEDIATELY north of phoenix. called "carefree highway" has the sign where the album art was taken

[thefoppa1000]

@screwyou4 me 2.

[MPL029]

wonderful song...too bad the video is stupid as hell....

[Deniseaz2003]

this is great, and a great song, like many of your vids , keep them rolling

[flamtap100]

This is stupid. A singing butt would've have been better and more imaginative than this.

[thefoppa10]

@flamtap100 lol
