Brand New Song by Matt Mays on QTV

[jamiehuskins]

@biggreenex queen of portland street

[SaZooCaballero]

5:17 Watch Matts face right after douchebag Ghomeshi says "its like classic Bruce". Dick! As long as it doesnt sound like Moxy Fruvous!

Great song. Stands by its self!

[sxrman]

sounds like he just chaged the words to tall trees

[MetrevB]

I hate the Portland Street area and most of Dartmouth for that matter.. but love this song. Matt Mays is cool he should be from Halifax

[sjbutler01]

@MetrevB What makes you feel he should be from Halifax? snob...

[waynemoores]

Saw Matt and the boys two nights ago outdoors at Parade Square. Canada Winter Games thing. Plaskett was 2 nights before that. Great Big Sea playing there to night and going to see them for sure.

[billygoat16]

whoever disliked this can bieber my balls

[biggreenex]

I want to dowload this song but i dont know what its called ! any one here know thanks!? :D

[neally12]

@biggreenex Queen of portland street

[danawana1996]

every time i drive down portland street i get all happy.

[UnstableMoocow]

all the best come from cole harbour and dartmouth :D

[gfraser80]

there is a download for a studio version on q104.ca

[xmen654]

Anyone know what he is referring to with " and the 8-2-7 punched out my lights, down at Rudy's last Saturday night"? I know what the rest of the songs means, but only because I'm from Cole Harbour ;-P

[gfraser80]

does anyone know the chords for this? cant see his fingers long enough and i cant tell by ear :-O

[dartmissian]

@gfraser80 Mostly G & C, throw in a Em at the beginning of the Chorus. Like most of May's songs (City of Lakes, Tall Trees, etc.) Enjoy! These are all great party songs!

[werelost1]

whats the song called

[dafuksup]

@werelost1 its called "queen of portland street"

[kkage2]

@dafuksup called chasing hurricanes..

[dafuksup]

@kkage2 no youre wrong, its called "queen of portland street" i heard it on the radio the other day.

[bovedue]

nothing better than alittle matt mays...

[ginastrati]

Good job Matt................

[MentalyptiC]

love how he always represents dartmouth/cole harbour

[djdeadjesus]

Portland street represent

[TheJakaster]

He kinda remind me of Adam Sandler...

[TheJakaster]

Is this right: "I know this street like the back of my hand, from the donair temple to the uptown center"? I think I'm hearing the "uptown center" part wrong. Anyone know what he's actually saying?

[coneycat]

@TheJakaster I think he's saying "from the donair temple to the L-town sand." I took that as a reference to Lawrencetown beach, but I could be wrong.

[TheJakaster]

@coneycat

Ahh! that makes more sense, thanks!

[coliflower10]

@coneycat nope your right.

[TheJakaster]

Does anyone know what is saying? Is it: "Out of the fire, out of the rain", or am I hearing wrong?

GREAT SONG BTW! Anyone know if he has another album coming anytime soon?

[TheWackyAntics]

@TheJakaster

Out in the five-runner, Out in the rain. Me and G chasing hurricanes.

[TheJakaster]

@TheWackyAntics

Oh! thanks! just curious though, what's a five-runner?

[TheWackyAntics]

@TheJakaster

Haha, no problem man. A five-runner is like an old school type of truck.

[tesserzz]

AMAZING

and so hot ._.

[cjc1217]

Matt Mays is fuckin awesome. I listened to Terminal Romance for 6 months straight, it was the only CD in my car for that time. I love how he wants to bring back 'Straight up' rock n roll. And fuck this idiot for comparing him to 'classic bruce'. No artist wants to be told he sounds like something before him. I can't believe this guy isn't huge yet, he deserves to own rock n roll right now, cuz he's legit. Anyways Matt love your tunes buddy and can't wait til the next album!

[govern0r]

Matt - please tell me this tune is on your new CD!

[mszeverybest]

Boston Cream Donut!!! :D

[DodgeMan360]

@mszeverybest haha I shoulda known that, thanks!

[mszeverybest]

Your a life changing song on a white cassette, a melody I'll never forget.

Getting me a triple triple and a BCD, the good times are beyond me.

Throw in the shifter one, two and three. Find me the queen of Portland Street.

Out of the fire, out of the rain. Me and G chasing hurricanes.

I know this road like the back of my hand, from the Donair Temple to the Uptown Center.

Me and G will meet ya down in the doons, ya with the moon and the toons, we'll be there soon.

Throw in the shifter on

[DodgeMan360]

@mszeverybest Whats a BCD?

[TheWackyAntics]

@DodgeMan360

Boston Cream Doughnut from Tim Hortons

So fucking Canadian.

[monkeyfork]

[skattingbombardier]

[bib404]

[Larryonoff4356]

[rubbernmetal]

[nicolinaz1]

[dswc]

I love it! I've liked MM for a few years now, and just happen to be spending the summer here. One of the things I wanted to do while I was here was see him live, and I just found out that he's playing in 3 nights, I'm so stoked to see him live, again!

[eternalartisan]

My brother loves this song. I miss him living here. moved all out to LA or whatever... just not the same now. Sigh.

[guitarherofly]

BLHAHAHHAHHAH

[clarhilary]

queen of portland street. shoutout DARTMOUTH!!!

[tervivjerbry]

so wickedly great--give it a break with Jiam doing the comparision with Bruce--it is much better and so unique--love his style singing and not just his voice--he should be much more of a popular artist all over this great country!!!!!

[JimmyJazz5]

umm... I really like Matt Mays, but his voice is a carbon copy of Bruce, so much so that he should probably pay copyright fees.

[ktaylor999]

yet another great song, love Matt Mays...

[ozymandis45]

this is so awesome can't wait for the single if he releases it

[troubleacoming14]

so good

[KG902]
