BOOTSAUCE - Everyone's A Winner

[mumpyftm]

Bootsauce were everything RHCP wished they were. Shame Universal didn't give a shit about them.

[AllCanadiaReject]

What movies has this song been in?

[TheDougdown]

john lalley from trenton on drums !!!!!!!!

[ThePiratebhoy]

Hey I loved this song when it came out...Bootsauce used to get blared from my car most mornings crossing the Thames river into the UWO campus let the freaks listening to Vanilla Ice I was coming. great cover version of HOT CHOCOLATE;s tune

[whiteman59]

crack came early to canada and it hit the canadian chart magazine first

[JJBLUES1975]

ITS THE CANADIAN RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS

[dav0113]

@JJBLUES1975 With a better base player

[dictator54]

i fukin luv it great song, took a long time to find

[felled]

The hook at 3:17...IS DA FUCKING BOMB.....

Fuck Chart Magazine....this tune FUCKING KICKS...great job Drew and co. !!!!

[Ritzy87]

sounds like inxs...sorry,,,, love the song

[RetroKimmie]

Not a bad version....but the original IS THE BEST!!

[juhanleemet]

love that funk! LOVE this band!!!

[MrFuzzydeath]

great song, great band

[brevaelc]

holy crap! it really was 20 years ago! great live show, those guys.

[Drumspiracy]

Energetic punkfunkrock.

[tinhorse64]

Kind of a cross between Prince and Robert Palmer. This rocks!

[dentyne21888]

These guys are like a combo of RHCP and Faith No More. I dig it big time!!

[vvv7000]

Now this is the rocking version of the song I like to hear, the one found on their greatest hits album. For some reason whenever I hear this on the radio, it's always a lousy, tepid version.

[TheFlea1234]

Great! Baculis was an amazing bassman!

[xraygord]

Hey kurdtss, any chance you can post Play With Me by Bootsauce? love that tune.

[mrmetalfarmer]

@xraygord i second that

[ibanezgeorge]

the bassist gives my friend bass lessons. He teaches at Vanier College in Montreal

[anina114]

@ibanezgeorge - back in the day this version and bass groove was the shit!

[CheeleaderGymnast101]

thank you for posting this video. when ever i mention Bootsauce people look at me like i am crazy... These guys were great.. Great entertainers, great partiers and great advice givers...

[Haller1111]

Great job with this tune! Solid remake!

[XanaduMyHome]

this song was voted by a canadian Chart magazine as the worst canadian song ever recorded, what the fuck, it beats out half of the canadian rap and hip hop alone, fuckin magazines and critics dont know fuck these days

[snottydyck]

@XanaduMyHome right on pal

[djwithnoname]

@XanaduMyHome horsehit. This is a GOOD song if you don't have to watch the excrutiating video with the day-glo clothes. You're telling me these guys aren't better than BILLY TALENT? Fucking heresy.

[KillingJoke696]

@djwithnoname LOL! Ya fuck Billy Talent. Seriously

[elijah5674]

@djwithnoname This video was pretty much what 1990 was all about...the music stands the test of time, regardless of the dated video/styles/antics.

[dannoj98]

@XanaduMyHome I could see "Worst Style by a Lead Singer", but worst Canadian song? I think we should check some Barenaked Ladies album filler from the early 2000's for that... but a rock-remake of Hot Chocolate's classic would be hard to screw up. This video sucks for sure, though...

[pandemicmonster]

FUCNIN BOOTSAUCE!!!! the 90's were the shit... WINNIPEG JUGGALO's

[wild4wheels]

I saw them in that club at The Plaza of Nations, opening for 54/40 ... WOW - what a show.

[g4superdude]

FUCKIN EH, Canadians all the way!!

[dintrox]

critics ... exactly what brought you here??

[mizmite]

faith no more wannabes

[doucetteje]

ahhahhahhahhahhahhahhahhahahah­ahahahahahahahahahahahahahahha­hahahahahahahahhahahahah!!!!!

everyone's a winner baby!

[ArtmonkeyProductions]

Perry Johnson (aka Pere Fume) went on to co-found a multimedia company. Sonny Greenwich, Jr. started touring and recording with his father (legendary jazz guitarist Sonny Greenwich, Sr.). Al Baculis is still prominent on the Montreal music scene, having performed with the Greenwiches and currently as a member of Phantom Power.

But whatever happened to Drew?

[fireballzofhell]

@ArtmonkeyProductions Perry Johnson is my dad 0.0 hes moving to L.A. in a few months too get back in the industry...

[aackko]

Ha! That's my drummer Marc!!

[barbaralee15]

MMMMMM TY for posting. Added to my Canadian music list! Got em in the West Coast Chapter because they Rock as much as our local bands. Not bad for a bunch of Montreal boys!

[fishface321]

We all know covers are rarely better than the original but if there's an exception to the rule this is a great example. Superb version and it ROCKS!!!

[chadhman]

SHIT!

[koolKeela]

so many covers of this song and everyone's a winner lol, can never make up my mind between

scotch chocolate or this haha wicked song...........

[MisterQuizzz]

I like bands such as RHCP, Faith No More, Infectious Groove, and of course Bootsauce!

[KanuZankoro]

Funk Metal, great choice

[Slapmachine]

Wow, forgot all about them. BHS.

[damage98]

Bootsauce still sounds great. But to really get them you have to see them live. Seriously skilled and you can dance to it. What's not to like? I remember I took some Aussie snowboarders from up at Big White to see them in Kelowna and they were blown away. They didn't expect to dig it but they did.

[jaycen420]

omg how old am i?

[00PuzZLeR]

With all due respect, despite their home-town area, I did enjoy this band and even saw them live. Good song actually. Funny, just a couple of weeks ago I saw them on MuchMoreMusic's Much More Retro show and felt the urge to check'em out here. I guess the station considers them "classic" now. Anyhow good luck to drumdude2008 if he's still attempting the reunion.

[Munchkins03]

Bootsauce were feakin awesome! I happened to catch 'Love Monkey #9' on Much Music at someone's pad and could NOT get that song outta my head so I had to buy the hits album.

By the way, anyone got 'Love Monkey #9 for posting here on the tube?

[stanbrackhage]

this was voted the worst canadian song ever recorded by chart magazine

[penelop96]

Yeah, some music critics just seem to have their heads screwed on wrong...

[LauraLovesNirvana]

This is Awesome !!...i can't stop listening to it lol thanks for posting this :)

[froggerc625]

Oh man I remember having a blast seeing these guys live at Fed Hall

[markuseb]

FedHall??? Did someone say FedHall? As in University of Waterloo, Fed Hall?

[markuseb]

fed Hall?

[drumdude2008]

One of em is right here...;-) I just joined you tube...I'm the drummer in this video. Thanks for the compliments. The band disbanded in 96. I tried to contact a few of them about 2 years ago for a reunion/comeback but didn't get positive replies from the ones I managed to contact.

[hexum111]

Al was one of the best funk/slap/fretless playing bass players. Sonny was also an innovative rock guitar phenome.Intelligent, funky and original band.Definetly missed...

[billychopps]

Bootsauce allways Kicked ass every time I saw them!

[razorvard]
