I`m from Rotterdam, Holland. My girlfriend `s half Canadian. Before we travelled to Bobcaygeon, Ontario last summer my girlfriend said to check out this band called The Hip or something... Never heard of them in Europe?! Now, one year later, I have all there CD`s and listen to them every freekin day! Fully Completely, Grace Too, Nautical, Escape is at hand.. masterpieces! I even like Wheat Kings and I`m not even Canadian L.o.L. Love your country, love your women and really really love The Hip!
@FrizAtHome It is hard to explain in words how deeply I appreciate the depth of your argument and value your informed and apparently well educated opinion. With your two conjoined sentence fragments you almost, but not quite, achieved a complete sentence there so keep trying Mate. But feel free to help Africa in any way you can think of? Besides: Shouldn't you be outside of your parental rent paid bubble grovelling at the feet of Kate & William? Or out anywhere sharing your skills and talent?
@SmileyGarrish Unlike you I have the opportunities to do whatever I want, whenever I want, I don't live in a grass hut molded together by animal fecal matter and I do not praise a King as a God.
@FrizAtHome Do Africans intimidate you little man? Interesting leap of illogic - why should I care if you 'do not praise a King as a God'? Neither do I or any other modern Rastafarian; you must be reading your Roman Catholic Propaganda and kneeling before your priest taking oral instruction in how to be ignorant. But I forgot that you are 18, omnipotent and probably an entitled little brat whose Mommy still does his laundry. I find lots of sad little racists on youtube, so I will add you 'Bro'.
@FrizAtHome FYI there is nothing harmless about our actions towards Africa, or the ever present and seemingly perpetual racism and ignorance in the west which leads to our fellow human beings starving and dying in so many ways that you can not imagine. Your attitude is what Gordon Downie was fighting against and why he took chances making his beliefs known to people like you - to help you come into this world with an open mind/ open heart. Violence, war, greed and death is what you preach. Sad.
@SmileyGarrish Look this is nice and everything and I'm really happy you are doing this but I am really not interested in anything you have to say, if you are gonna type these long useless speeches that I havent read anyways can you please untag me? Thanks.
@FrizAtHome As would Haile Sellassie I before me I forgive you, bless you, and hope you grow to see that the world does not have to be full of poverty, war, violence, death and prisons. It has been redesigned that way by an Elite which has you in Mental Slavery, beholden to your material needs, Ego and fear. It is not your fault and you can still become enlightened and more human. Has Toronto digressed so far from her roots that you can be the product of its schools? Toronto, Ontario, Canada? No
@jamiewang92: "no 1 moves like that guy." I saw an old REM video, Fables of the Reconstruction era. A little early Michael Stipe there. Maybe combined with the guy from Midnight Oil. Just brainstorming--only to recommend if anything. But you're right --not sure I've ever seen anyone quire like him. Saw him front row, live. He seemed shy and nervous actually and a lot of his movement seemed to be a way to overcome that. Just a guess. Awesome show. '02? Minneapolis.
my dads boss is best friends with gord downie ive got autographed albums from him and have met him a couple of times and seen him about thirty times in concert
i wonder if "love's a curse" is going to be a song on one of their future albums. it could work... it wouldn't be the first time a rant turned into one of their songs.

i grew up going to schools in canada that were really no better than torture chambers for the privelage of working for piss rotten wages with no hope of advancement so when a band from canada makes it big singin about nothing all over the world i dont feel proud i feel embarassed
dude you're rediculous. the hip sing about life. the lyrics are prolly just a little bit too out there for you. gord is one of the most talented musicians in all of north america.
lol you're mighty ridiculous, why have you gone to so many hip videos to just post bad comments about the band, if you dont like their music DON'T LISTEN TO THEM!!!!!!!!
lol, did u grow up in the artic of canada or something? ill bet you dropped out of school or something and now you cant get a decent job. dont hate on one of the greatest countries in the world, and consider how lucky u r to be even making minimum wage compared to other places
well your clearly not the most intelligent person either, coming on here and generalizing every male hip fan like that. Did you talk to everyone at the show...thats alot of people...saying they are all hockey rockers kinda made me laugh at first but thats pretty nationalistic of you.
