dont mean to sound dumb ,but what is the title to this song please?-i love the song and have enjoyed MrCummings for many years. would appreciate ur help!-thanks
the words are really so beautiful and light up the song, anyone can follow this to guide their own very life.Burton as i see it, is a wonderful person
Be free, its lyrics are inspiring....musically impeccable & Burton reflecting his life,. What a great soul, & and likeable person & musician. Anyway,i remb this from when i first heard it about 5 years ago & instantly knew it as a hit. Truly a guidance & enlightening for anyone who contemplates.,who wants to see clearly :)
And little did Burton know that if he cleaned out the trunk in his T Bird, he would have found the tape that later became the Thunderbird tracks. A rockin piece of Bachman Cummings history.
Awesome, awesome, awesome! Thanks 69Lovett. Will watch this clip over and over... Have adored Burton forever. Love everything he does. He writes a blog on MySpace to keep fans up on his career. Fantastic..
I don't usually like "breaks" or interruptions in the middle of songs or videos, but those were great knowing that he made good on the promises that he made to himself. The Guess Who reunion and the Bachman-Cummings projects are proof of that.
to zognet, i couldnt agree with you more. you nailed it dead on that fact. Burton made some questionable moves in the past, said and done things that affected him at the end. it happens to the best of us humans. but as you say, he was determined to never beack out on those promises, and yeah bachman and cummings to this day are closer then ever before, and sounding every bit as good if not, better.
TO ALL PEOPLE! Im lookin for a song from Burton Cummings, from a movie called "MELONIE". Its called, Pickin up brokin pieces. How can i get this????? Please help me out!
The song you are talking about is Something Old, Something New from his Sweet Sweet album. Check the local record shops and ebay, because it's not on CD.
Thanks for the thought! But I´ve busted my butt lookin fo that song!That song is REALY GOOD. If you know the song and esspecialy the movie,then i beieve youd be aaafter the song to. Id be most thankful person on earth to get the song, Pickin up brokin pieces.Please help me out people!!!!!!!!
@20rich02 Only 3 years late with the reply. I believe the song you are looking for is "Something Old, Something New" from the movie "Melanie". You can find it here on Youtube.
Plus signs is one of the all time underated albums! I hope he still has a few like it to come! Saw him Live in Brampton back around 1996, will never forget that show! He was incredible!!
Burt never really went away after The Guess Who, but to his fans outside of Canada it might have seemed that way. All his solo albums sold big back home and he put them out pretty regularly. I feel lucky that I grew up in Toronto and was fed a regular diet of Burt tunes on local radio.
Absolutely an icon to the music world, indeed!! Awesome video! Thanks so much for posting! Definately a song to appreciate for Guess Who fans and Burton Cummings fans alike!!
Thank you lovett69. I am a native of Chicago, but have seen Burton and the Guess Who, starting w/the Donny McDougal days-whom my father helped get his permit to tour w/the band after Greg Leskew quit. I enjoyed Kurt Winter tremendously, missed Dominic Troiano-live unfortunately. But I finally got to see Randy B. during the 2001 tour outside Washington DC and Burton solo at that beautiful theatre at the Niagra Falls Casino in late Jan. 2005. Thanks again,69lovettGREATLY appreciated.
