it doesnt matter where the performer comes from......music is universal & its biased assholes like some of you here that keep the hate taste in peoples mouths.....you're mostly just opinionated blowhards who probably couldnt even tune a guitar

[ironmountainrotts]

I loved this song since I was a young lad back in Missouri! Now I'm all grown up and living in Alaska I really LOVE it!

[WhateverUlike68]

I remember rockin to this at Super Skate Seven in KW on weekends.

[MrKolt2112]

wtf is this video ?....

[jinksy2222]

Being both canadian and american, i have come across interesting lifestyles. the children(canadians) of the seventies grew up with many freedoms, hence freedom of emotional expressions through lyrics. where as american children grew up with a few more screwed up parents. Not to place blame, they fought a tuff few wars over the years and (american) children had restrictions on them a little more. Canada rocks!!! may the states learn from canadian morals, and get back to the basics of life.

[Hitchhika789]

-Denthedragon- " i so agree, lately i been listenen to some music and some canadians that stand out to me are "The Payolas" and their song Eyes of a Stranger, also the crash test dummies,. with superman's song.

(canada's the new america : P)

[cheryl4got]

Yes!!! Canadians make really good tunes...nothin else to do! I'm a Canadian

[LovinRupert]

I remembered when the Canucks went to the Stanley Cup Finals in 94. This was one of there Promo songs. Few yrs later it was one of my Grad songs, God I haven't heard this song since my graduation. When God created Music He said let there be Canadian Rockers that know how to Rock a Stadium, and there was, So God Created Gerry Doucette- to Rock that much harder.

[geobakable]

[elrhiarhodan]

[brood501]

[elrhiarhodan]

@brood501 I blame Canada... for keeping North American music from completely sucking for as long as I've been alive. Probably longer, really. Thanks for getting our backs. Or tops, or whatever. ;)

[butterflyx1]

This is a Canadian Staple. A friend had the 45. Its brings back a lot memories.

[c6k6h]

I have danced to this song over the years while out partying & love it!!! Ahhhh the memories....Been hearing this song for years. One of the classics that doesn't get enough air time on radio stations. I imagine when I'm 80 or so I'll still jump up & wanna dance to it!! Ahhhh the memories....

[DGULLIJ]

Classic I haven't heard this song in ages,brings back good memories

[drres]

Doucette was good friends with my bother, they played a lot together. One new years eve he tried to give me a teaspoon of mustard to make me puke! lol Check out the Danny Tripper Tibute on my channel catch some pics of Doucette there too!

[mycroft414414]

I'm sick and tired of all the PC revisions to 'O, Canada'

Let's just replace it with 'Mama'

Good News, however, I just heard it yesterday, here in Edmonton, on FM92.5

'Mama' Lives !!!

[diecrewdeluks]

can someone tell me who that girl is damn is she ever hot!!!

[irishcelt1916]

WOW! What a throw-back! I remember my friend Dave and I used to smoke a bone at another friend's house a couple of houses from Lock Haven High School then go in. That was 1978-79. My first exposure to Doucette and he's been with me ever since! I'd love to meet him.

[dodgeismygod]

I'm 16 and I love this song----ITS AWESOM--

[articcatguy13]

this is the best song ever :D

[bilman45]

Damn! I can't believe i first heard this song in 1979, and i still like it to this day.

[bananamaebrown]

It was 1979??!!! Wow, doesn't seem nearly that long ago. And I still love it too, and forever will. A classic! And I can't sit still either when I hear it, to this very day!

[ah19741]

A french Canadian, too!

[nailclippers3]

holy shit,i used to drive like a mad man when this song came on

[roadrocket7]

Wait a minute: this is NOT actually Jerry Doucette in this video. Just a cover band playing behind the song. C'mon.....

[Zyrzero]

The video is terribly out of sync with the music, too. I can't even tell if they're actually even playing the same song or not!

Doesn't matter though, the song rocks, and I only care about being able to hear it anyway.

[arai59]

I actually have this album......but my phonograph is a piece of crap..........

[francedude5]

rock on this song rocks all! xD

[careylowell]

Not available on itunes! Nuts.

[Ghostybeliever]

One of my favourite songs EVA!

Rock on everybody :D

[holsterc]

Wow what i can find here is amazing , loving it!!!!!

[ericjolene]

one of the best !!

[bikerpro31]

great song..rock on!

[PaperClipper121]

wow, what a great tune. this has got to be one of my favourites.

[oreosebastian]

OMG I found this on you tube this is my all time favorite song I love this song the best

[sideyardrink]

ONE OF THE COOLEST TUNES. (I SAY PLAY SOME ROCK AND ROLL )JAM AT 3;00....(LONG TIME NO HEAR )doucette ROCKED OUT .

[rennieallen]

Jazz is much too crazy, he can play it when he's old, he's too young for the blues, he's still inside his first pair of shoes!

(perhaps the coolest refrain in rock)

[Maxmulham]

this song really means something to me. Dang parents.

[Cameragirl803]

Great song! Haven't heard this in forever! Great post Woo Woo! I always loved the guitar in this:) 5*****

[MjFadeAway123]

man i cant thank you enough for putting this song on, its such a good tune

thanks man

[sondog42]

I agree. Getting to see him play this song back in the 80's was awesome! Great song.

[terri22221]

Great, classic, tune; thanks for posting it..I've missed hearing it for a while :) Amazing voice and great axeman.

[marleekc]

Great song! He actually is a blues player though, I met him.... preforms amazingly. Picks the guitar with his tongue during the solo!

[mrk66]

One of the best "Classic rock songs ever" It's to bad that the so called Classic rock stations won't even play this one.

[dangerousdaniel]

classic

[TuathadaDanaan]

Thanx dude...don't care what the vid is like...just want to dance to your tune!! Thanx for the dance!! Adding to my favs! Peace!

[musicvideoswhd]

this is the great jerry doucette, delete your account,EddieBear631!

[dnirvine]

I think he meant the video, as it has nothing to do with the song.

[Willdam123]

ya u fuckin idiot, put a gun in your mouth and delete your existence while your at it

[krazykritik]

..very nice comment..extremely loving and caring..the wish for another human to commit suicide..you truly are a person of the times..what insight and upscale attitude..let's pray you wake up to your foolish mistake and retract it..like the 'man' you are..

[jesusequalmyth]

Kill yourself.

[krazykritik]

..and another idiot joins the fray..while blaspheming the name of God's son..I guess inbreeding is more rampant than first thought..God forgive me but you re truly the epitome of "a useless piece of skin"..

[jesusequalmyth]

Kill yourself.

[revkrull]

I can honestly say I have not heard this song in two decades. It was a staple on KSHE in Saint Louis in the late-70's. Honestly, who cares about the video? The music is all you need!

[EskrimaDork]

Yeah I remember this song and Children of the Sun, those were two of my favorite songs when I was younger.

[snowstormcan]

Somebody should post "Nobody". Best Doucette song.

[mrbrian1965]

good choice, i just added that.

[stevegaines1]

they're not even in sync.

[musicvideoswhd]

that's because the video is neither jerry doucette nor mama let him play

[TrainmasterCurt]

Nonetheless, All i Wanna Do is one of my fav's

[Maxmulham]

this songs awesome. but this video sucks crap.

[TrainmasterCurt]

Ok Jerry!

[TrainmasterCurt]

Awesome! Doug Doucette was a great guitarist, and i wish they had "All I Wanna Do" on here, that's my fav

[musicvideoswhd]

do you mean jerry doucette?

[TrainmasterCurt]

Oops, Yes Gerry Doucette

[musicvideoswhd]

once again it's Jerry doucette

[lalba07]

Doesn't he kinda sound like David Lee Roth? I can totally see Van Halen doing this...great song!

[ravenlunatic1]

I can't believe this is on here - thank you! We took Doucette to Myrtle Beach, SC on Spring Break in 1978. I asked my friend if she wanted a copy of Exile's greatest hits, she said, "Yes, and I'd like to find Doucette"!

[alexandrialynn43]

Oh my God! These are great videos!!  Yes!

[musicluvr58]

Total kick ass!!

[geraldcieslak]

one of my favorite songs!

[wef1956]

this song is just so perfect i can't believe it's not the national anthem

[Willdam123]

thank u

[guitarmarty]

this is not Doucette - this is bogus! I know him and this is the recording of his song but this video isnot him. Nice try. Great song!!!!

[Phophorousbronze]

Love it...nice dual guitar action.

[Maxmulham]

so true about my parents. Never let me play squat. That's why I love this song so much!

[fkngrvnmj]

Great Classic

[ak1169]

this song is da bomb!
