  • Why are the top comments about Nickelback? I came here for Red Rider.

  • I met the keyboard player at a piano lounge I worked at in the 80's. one disgruntled dude. He bashed Tom Cochrane every chance he could get!!! He said if Tom wasn't a musician he would be an axe murderer..lol, My guess is the guy was disgruntled as he was playing Piano Man instead of this for a living!!!

    Awesome tune btw!!!

  • best fukkin song ever made!

  • Who the fuck is Nickleback? Are they on this song? Sheesh.

  • I guess 10 ppl dont need rain

  • to the 10 people who disliked this song, wtf is wrong with you?

  • @badroxy21 There's no rhyme or reason. Very sad.

  • Gotta love the super-cheesy 80s album cover. WTF were they thinking? lol

  • uh, this song sucks.

  • 1980? Wow. Heard their songs over the years on the radio here and there. Appreciating them more. Luckily I saw Tom a few years back with Mellencamp . Id see him again

  • good song 80sssss

  • Good memories .

  • nickleback has a few good songs..... of course u cant beat the 80s

  • not the best song ever made

  • @skidoofever bullshit.

  • Since you're genius's regarding music, wtf you listen to? Embarrassing posts. Should be a proof of adult etc.

  • The people in the South have been driven to cousin-fucking by the influx of all the fucking South-haters that have moved here, WTF?

  • Wow, you young people really need to get some sort of life...............I was a Teenager in those days.................We did far more than you nintendo playing people. And by the way, texting is truly a Retarded past-time.

  • IF there is ever a song written that can touch all of your senses it is this song. Tom Cochrain is brilliant. I can not understand that he did not get the credit he deserves, or is it just that the rest of the world has an awful taest for music. Yes almost everything from Canada is fantastic. Yes Celine dose not really qualify, she is more an embarresment:-) And Boom 97.3 fm is playing a lot of Toms songs (find them on the internet, tere is every day at least one song from Tom on Boom Radio.

  • They play this on the radio where I live sometimes!

  • reminds me of my late father :) awesome song!

  • Can't seem to stop listening

  • I also masturbated to this song

  • lmao if you think it's one of the best you haven't heard much music lunatic fringe i would say is one of the best songs but this one here just sucks lol

  • i want that car

  • saw him in congress center...lol..was a good show..allthough a little too much base that night.

  • sorry but it's far from being one of the best songs ever...and we're not special cause we are canadian, we have a whole bunch of sucky bands, just like everyone else on this planet

  • 'Heal the past... Live the present... Dream the future... And your life will come true' :)

  • Classic Canadiana!

  • im so white hot but im aborig

    booooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­ooooooooooooooooo

  • Favorite Red Rider Song :)

  • Cast out from the jungle, with no rations or canteen, for selling faulty rifles, to the thieves of Tanzania,.... just hits too close to home... Awesome lyrics...

  • thanks for this.... :)

  • music after the world war was the best up until the curtain fell...then music turned into crap....the best is from the farthest pushed....

  • "I'm white hot, I'm burning too the core". Awesome lyric!

  • IM White Hot. Cant Take It anymore. What a lyric?!

  • I liked this song i think about making a video about mark hamill when he in that movie called the big red one !

  • i need u 2 cum c me. txt. white hot

  • Other than Lunatic Fringe this song beats the crap out of every other song off of cowboys from siam which sucked

  • A GREAT rock song. Makes me wish I was still playing. 

  • @triplettam hey thanks i reemember red rider

  • S'awsum:)

  • justin bieber.. sorry had to

  • I've always liked this one! Thanks for posting this!

  • Orgasmic tune. Love it.

  • Heard this for the first time in the early 80's while driving in a snowstorm between Pittsburgh and Buffalo on my way to Toronto. I was nodding off because the snow flowing in the headlights was too hypnotizing. Then this song came on the radio - it woke me up - blew me away. It still does!! One of the best rock songs ever - Tom Cochrane is sorely under-rated.

  • i need u to come c me. thats no lie :) i cant take it N E MORE.

  • funny people are talking about Jonas Brother .... that brings me back hahaha now we got justa Beaver D;

  • Red Rider Concert, Estevan Sask, I'm going, I expect you to be there

  • Dont fight it.. Light it. and enjoy some red rider

  • I was in USMC when this came out.First heard it on some old piece of crap radio with safety wire for an antenna,and only one of the two speakers working! It still sounded awesome to me though.So I went out out and got the LP.Still have it some where I think?

  • Turn it up and listen to that intro...it's amazing!!!

    Waiting by the shore line......I need you to come see me, that's no lie.

    I'm white hot, I can't take it anymore!!!! LOL, I need more of this kind of music.

  • PERFECT!

  • Tom Cochrane kicks ass

  • Easily as good as anything produced by top US talents.

  • @gibaudrac1 Your opinion......but not to knock TC or Red Rider, but there are many one or two hit wonders of every nationality so what exactly is your point?

  • @pheloniousmunk tom cochrane wasn't a two hit wonder. That's just what americans think.

  • @dustinwm94 Well I'm an amurikin and in amurika tc seems to be a two hit wonder. btw, I'm proud to be an amurikan, got lots of friends in the great white north, but ocanada has nothing on us, imo.

  • @pheloniousmunk OMG , I just acknowledged a dumb dick....good thing he won't understand this :)

    

  • @pheloniousmunk Can't tell if trolling or just American.

  • wow this must be ripped from vinyl i detect little pops here and there

    cool!

  • This song is about the French literary person Arthur Rimbaud.

  • WHY WHY WHY isn't this song on the radio? Instead we are force-fed THE SAME OLD CRAP while great melodies like this go unappreciated. I'm embarrassed to admit that I'd forgotten this song- but hey it's been awhile. Thankyousomuch....

  • @dt2717

    I heard this on the radio last night! ;) 

  • @dt2717

    This song is on the radio quite frequently on the rock station where I live...Although maybe you're not from Canada and that's why

  • @dt2717 heard this on the radio yesterday :P

  • @dt2717 Live in Canada; this is legally proper to play! I hear it all the time.

  • @dt2717 its on the radio just rarely now that i noticed just now haha

  • @dt2717 interestingly, I've heard this song on the radio a few times recently.

    such a good melody.

  • @dt2717 104.1 the dock out of midland ontario canada plays this song and many other greats on a consistant basis, the radiostation has an app for the iphone too so you can listen to it in austrailia if u wanted to

  • @XKashmirXloveX yep very under ratted.....most of the lineup does tour together.... mostly smaller Canadian "intimate" venues with some "unplugged" style set too

  • IM WHITE HIGH, TAKE TAKE IT NE MORE !!

  • it must be pretty damn hot if its white

  • Seen him in 84 at Ontario Place.I kept screaming for him two play this. White Hot White Hot ! But he Wouldn't play it ! I guess i piss him off. LOL

  • very nice, thats my style ... just discover something i like

  • for Prime Minister.

  • i really like the line 'had you in my poetry to protect me'

  • 88 thousand views and only 121 likes... wierd

  • @runescapeman774

    its canadian and good....weird. lol.

  • @wholewheatbagel everything from canada is good. 'nuff said. :) except celine dion

  • @acdcfan900 Haha! xD

  • @acdcfan900 And Nickelback, god what a shit band.

  • @robinzhooded Nickelback was a good band

  • @stevewm1963 Yeah nickelback are my favorite band, I didn't get them at first but now I love to listen to them while using meth and fucking my cousins.

  • @robinzhooded i think that might be the best youtube comment i've ever seen

  • @robinzhooded Genius Trolling

  • @robinzhooded Hmm, I didn't think that you would allow people to know you fucked your cousins? Damn dude, you must be in the south. And Nickelback? Canadian, as is Three Days Grace and many others. Same with Red Rider, so what's your beef cousin fucker?

  • @PinkNPurpChronic420 Three days grace is awesome too, but there more of a band I listen to when I fuck my emo sister and use crack then nickelback which is for cousin fucking. While your on about great canadian music, don't forget celine dion, she's my choice of music for seducing my mom into bed. I don't like Red Rider though, there music isn't good for any sort of incest. Btw, don't use weed, its rotting your mind out and will kill you and send you to hell for all eternity. Quit now for Jesus.

  • @robinzhooded I can't believe your cousins would stoop so low as to fuck a nickleback fan....eewwwww

  • @robinzhooded Still not cool you should be fucking your cousins anyway loser

  • @TheMbillings I don't want retard babys tbh, if you want em go ahead, you can always abort em, makes for a fun game with the dying fetus afterwards. I would explain the game, but that would insult your intelligence, i'm sure you remember it :)

  • @robinzhooded Twenty eight thumbs ups for this fucking pukacious comment. Goes to show you that shit for brains and inbreeding are alive and well in this sick, sick, SICK society. Go drown yourself.

  • @tyme4mike I was trying to imply that nicke... ah forget it. You don't have the mental capacity to understand.

  • @robinzhooded I've lost more mental capacity than you possess. Yes I understand the sarcasm in the comment and I was using it too. But "fucking your cousins" is a very sick comment to gain a thumbs up regardless of the attempted use of the statement. Sad how people have to 'misunderstand' the language in order to 'understand' it. I reacted too quickly and would withdraw my comment if I could. regardless, it's a gruesome looking comment and it's quite easy to become misled by 'today's language'.

  • @tyme4mike Dude its people posting on youtube, its not meant to be taken seriously. It got so many thumbs up since almost everyone agrees here agrees that Nickelback is an overrated boring band.

  • @robinzhooded i prefer to snort a line of blow and get my cousins to fuck me while i listen to nickleback

  • @robinzhooded LMFAO . I was worried there for a second.

  • @acdcfan900 and justin beiber dont forget ahhhhhh

  • @acdcfan900 Celine is better than crap on radio now. LoL

  • @acdcfan900 And bieber.. lol

  • @acdcfan900 don't forget justin bieber...

  • @acdcfan900 lol! i agree! Neil Young! Rush! CANADA KICKS ASS!

  • @Bunkbedorgy360 AND ANVIL! CANT FORGET ANVIL! CANADIAN HEAVY METAL!

  • @Bunkbedorgy360 AND I CANT STOP TYPING IN CAPS!

  • moar cowbell?

  • I NEED RAIN!!!!

  • Good tune!

  • This was when you got stoned and told the world how you 'REALLY' felt!!!

  • I've listened to this song for 30 yrs and I finally found out the name today!!!

  • white hot then, white hot now

  • A former boyfriend used to sing this about "White Rock" (the city in BC full of geezers etc that I used to live in) he changed it to White Rock, I can't take it anymore! :D

  • @NerdyCanadian i find it funny that the rock isnt naturally white, but they painted it white.

  • @CWSDevon Yes, and they keep having to paint it due to spray paint/vandalism.

  • i still think red rider's neruda album is one of the best ever, i wish somebody would upload, "napoleon sheds a tear," it is just an awesome album.

  • @josmar7 OOOh I love that tune, too.

  • Awesome !!

  • Great song when driving to the beach

  • awesome

  • Vegas-need I say more?

  • Hi. Does anyone know where I can find sheet music for this song?

  • @Canada2000000

    Dude, you don't need sheet music for this, this is real rock and roll - it just explodes from you, and you play!

  • Comment removed

  • I'm glad iTunes has added Red Rider's "Over 60 Min w/Red Rider" to its latest albums but I'm pissed that I have to pay $1.29 per song. Whole album downloaded costs only $10 for 17 songs. It's a total no-brainer which route I'd choose.

    Anyone notice that the beginning of this song sounds somewhat like Mike Oldfield's "Tubular Bells"? Not that I'm complaining or anything.

  • never fight it love them,,,,,, bc here hahaha

  • puts a knock in my gutt every time,,,not sure why, love it....

  • @teeka57 Brotherhood? Trust that borders on Irrational? Living on an edge that others can not fathom? Or Just an Active Imagination?

  • anyone who hasnt heard "walking the fine line" listen to it. sooooooooo good

  • don't compare this to JonasBrothers! you can't compare this music with bad noises like that! '80's Rock is the best rock! will live on forever!

  • Comment removed

  • This song is about poet and gunrunner Arthur Rimabaud who sold guns in Africa. Google it up.

  • I am in Tanzania right now rockin this track......FTW

  • Vancouver here!!!!! anyone else from Vancouver????

  • great!

  • Cranbrook B.C 1980. Wicked memories with this GREAT tune!!

  • you know whats stupid? tom cochrane didn't ' play at the olympics he is canadian

  • @rubberducky159 Yes, he was there in Vancouver and played for the athletes at Molson Canadian Place.

  • you know whats fucking ridiculous?!?! they dont have this song on iTunes. Apple ...... you have failed me.

  • @shereenisabitch LimeWire my friend

  • @TARDISvision i know i know, but such a brilliant song should still be on itunes. a bunch of jackasses they are/

  • @shereenisabitch agreed

  • @shereenisabitch It's there now - at $1.29 per song.

  • @bucky468 you fucking retard who would pay 1.29$ a song when you can have it free you fucking infested chode head.

  • @bibirules77 Where can I get it free? If you're talking Limewire & its ilk forget it. I'm not cool w/that. I don't wanna get sued by the music industry for taking a song w/o paying for it. I'd rather pay $2 for the vinyl version of the entire album at a flea market or bargain antique shop that sells vinyl records. In other words I don't steal.

    BTW - nice language - now wash out that dirty mouth of yours - at once!

  • Should have been the soundtrack to Dogs of War with Christopher Walken. Gotta say Canada has given the world some of the best bands ever (Rush, Cowboy Junkies, and of course Red Ryder)

  • Wow. I hadn't heard this song in YEARS. I don't know why I had it going through my head, but thanks! It's just like I remembered.

  • dam i need to get back to the front line arrrrrrrrhhhhhhhhh

  • One of the greatest albums ever made.

  • Excellent! Thanks for sharing :)

  • now THIS is how rock 'n' roll is supposed to sound!!!!! None of that Jonas Brothers crap.

  • Jonas Brothers is just a boy band crap.

  • @ThunderMetalHead Justin Bieber too! Get rid of Lady GaGa & Katy Perry also!!

  • @ThunderMetalHead no it's boy band bull shit and it sucks like clay aiken on his lover

  • @Apollyonification

    This is GREAT stuff. Canada sure did make some good stuff!

  • @Apollyonification In all actuality, there is a need for groups similar in composition and relevance such as "Jonas bros." and "Gaga" etc. It's pure mathematics. For a position to be held on a scale, there must be alternate or opposing factors for a scale too exist. Red Rider occupies the upper end of the scale. Where as Jonas and Gaga, occupies the toilet position. Simple mathematics.

  • @kanukster :)

  • @Apollyonification You actually consider that music?

  • I had you and my poetry to protect me. We were both soldiers then. Bolder then, colder then.

    I need raaain.

  • Comment removed

  • I thought I would never hear this song again. Def one of my favs. Thanks for posting the ENTIRE song!

  • white hot is years ahead of its time and stays rich and tough.

  • I love this song (: It's older than a lot of the music I listen to, but it is definitely one of the best songs ever!!

  • Comment removed

  • Yep

  • Comment removed

  • tom cochrane also sounds like myles goodwan

  • i can remember the by the strand in tripoli ... great use of words and excellent song

  • I've loved this song for a long time. Going to pose to the intro in a bodybuilding competition this Fall. The song will be a hit whether I am or not.
