Couldn't they make the mic louder, so that he didn't have to chew it XD
And the song is awesome =D
I was born at the dusk of all the best XX could offer. Dunno if I should be glad I saw a bit of it or sad cause now I live in a much darker time... time of noise, not music anymore =(
I remember this performance. I video taped it and played it to death. Definitely one of the greatest cuts of 90's. Remake is garbage, but I'm glad it made Tom some loot.
I LOVE Tom Cochrane;s version.. You can't sing, play the hamonica, AND the guitar ALL at the same time! he he... I , myself, can't do ANY of those three! Classic tune!
It's different because it's a live performance...none other like it...it's a chart topper across the border which isn't very far away for me fortunately.
This is Tom's song, know him and when it came out it didn't get the air play it should have. One the best songs to come out of Canada. Now will all you Americans just f--- off and give your head a shake.
it always cracks me up when an artist composes a song and sings it well,
and then people say this person or that person does it better. the other fucking people wouldn't be singing this song if tom didn't write it. that's where the talent
@deerslayer647 first off yeah right that's why i've made out with 4 girls.............one that i actually waz dating.........yeah sure gay.f u u gay ass mother fucker, i will kick your ass any day bicth............
ok.....he's good but rascal flatts is more famous, just look at the difference in music vid veiw.................................tom/434,431 to flatts/10,473,617 no joke bicthes
@deerslayer647 Gay Boy Band? Thats why they are all married with Children and sing nothing like an Nsync etc. They are the number one selling Band in any Genre this last decade...quit being a hater cause they are doing stuff that you and I only dream of. They did a better job of this song....thats the end of it. The statistics show
@hollerbacktyler i respect your opinion and all, but what difference does it make that the rascall flats version is more popular? how can popularity make it 'better'? call me a hipster but ussually it's the other way around lol. anyways, im just sayin as well, so don't take offence and go on a rampage of homophobic slurs like the rest of these commenters hahaha
@mikeyspikey12 Uh, yeah he can, he's a very good guitarist. But this song's chorus doesn't line up with the chords if you listen carefully... the chords are off-set. He's probably focusing on harmonica and singing. I've heard him play this song solo acoustic, but I can't sing and play this song either... try it yourself. The chorus chords start in between words.
@mikeyspikey12 I'd like to see a video of you singing the chorus and playing the chords in perfect timing, if it's that easy. I've been playing guitar 15 years and even I have to concentrate on what I'm doing. The Dm doesn't fall exactly on the word "LIFE"... it's offset. Good luck.
@mikeyspikey12 I didn't say it's impossible, I said it's hard... still waiting for your video proving you can do it with power chords. And he's the lead guitarist only singing back-up. I've seen Tom Cochrane play this song solo acoustic, so he can play it just fine...
Let's see you, you said you could do it :) I don't think you can.
Simply a KILLER song, with great changes and one of the BEST vocal choruses ever!. And the Chick Singer is the icing on the cake. Not to mention the House Band, Paul, Anton, Paul and Will driving it home.
@tinclunge1234 1 hit wonder?? Are you kidding?? LOL! Tom Cochrane has released over 15 albums and has had a tonne of hits in Canada/USA over a 30 year career! Do your research. "Good Times", "Boy Inside The Man", "Big League" (a hockey anthem!), "Sinking Like a Sunset", "Wish You Well", "Washed Away", "Lunatic Fringe", "White Hot" and a hundred more. You can purchase his box set on Amazon. Pretty amazing to have a box set from a one-hit wonder! hahaha.
He seemed to goof up a bit at the beginning, but only the original will ever be best! I can't stand Rascal Flatts' cover, too much twang for me, hurts my ears
@bricabrac85 Looks like they cut time off the intro and he wasn't prepared for it, but he makes a nice recovery and owns the song like Rascall Flats never will be able to.
Who cares which one is better, it's a matter of opinion. They're both excellent, I personally like Tom's version better, original usually dominates, rascall flatt's made it a close competition though.
The point is, there's no reason to bash either version.
Rascal Flatts' cover of this song is nowhere near as good as the original. For one, Tom Cochrane wrote the song and two, his gritty vocals sound better than the overproduced country vocals of the latter.
@MassacreBlast and of course, rascal flats don't play the instrument, which in my opinion made this song so great, the Harmonica which adds even more greatness to the song, i agree cochrane wipes the floor with any cover of this song
wow he really fucks up going into the 1st verse. Looks like they're playing the radio edit version, and he's playing the album version with the extended harmonico solo/intro.
Yes, that is Paul Schaffer pre-head shave. To see him w/a full head of hair, look up SNL clips from the first season or so. He was the SNL musical director pre-Letterman.
And "earlyblue", that is your opinion. I am not 'saying' this is great. But you obviously have no idea what it takes to be a band member for shows such as this. Did you realize the intro is somehow messed up, yet they all covered and sailed thru like nothing happened? You try it.
Hi mate, I dunno who is Paul Shaffer, I did mean the character "The Critic", who used to apppear in the Simpsons. well, the Keyboard Player reminds me to him somehow...
@xyxyu2 True....But just because they did the song better and made it more famous than the original! It is way better! PLUS, in agreement with you statement partially. MOST Country singers or singers in general are good at THEIR type of music, I agree. My Gary Levox can sing dang near any style of music. Research some of his songs, why he did Boston, Free Ride. etc. He is amazing singer. Don't take the from them. Now you like what you like, fair, but don't deny, by views alone that it is better.
Van Halen is probably the best band of all time in making covers more exciting than the originals........VH also covered "You're No Good" by Betty Everett & Linda Ronstadt and "Ice Cream Man" by John Brim........smoking hot covers that are way better than the originals !!
I also think VH cover of "Dancing in the Street" had that signature Halen sound, but the original version by Martha and the Vandellas is still better.
Is everyone really this clueless? The song is not messed up at all. It's just a slight bit of improvisation at the beginning on the harmonica, anticipating the count, like when someone does a run on the guitar on the 3 count... jeez, if it isn't exactly the same as the album you people think it is screwed up. That's how live music works. Get out and see a show!
It was Tom Cochrane who messed up in the beginning. Listen to the drum intro. Tom came in with his harmonica too early. He came in off beat. And a guitar player hit a string by accident before the intro roll. Listen carefully first, man. And Paul didn't cut the song short. It was probably the arrangement they agreed upon for this performance. That's what they do. This is a tv show, not a concert. They do rehearse this before the show so they do know how the song will go.
you see, that's why i never liked that hack on the keyboards. He screwed up the song at the start and cut off the harmonica entrance and at the end he ended the damn song. what an ass. As usual, tom pro's it up and I'll bet not too many people realized it. He didn't even show anger, but you could see a smile when he walks over during the last few notes to keys and smiles at him like :you screwed up dude! hate that key player...
This is horrible sry

It's just a slight bit of improvisation at the beginning on the harmonica, anticipating the count, like when someone does a run on the guitar on the 3 count... jeez, if it isn't exactly the same as the album you people think it is screwed up. That's how live music works. Get out and see a show!

It was Tom Cochrane who messed up in the beginning. Listen to the drum intro. Tom came in with his harmonica too early. He came in off beat. And a guitar player hit a string by accident before the intro roll. Listen carefully first, man. And Paul didn't cut the song short. It was probably the arrangement they agreed upon for this performance. That's what they do. This is a tv show, not a concert. They do rehearse this before the show so they do know how the song will go.

you see, that's why i never liked that hack on the keyboards. He screwed up the song at the start and cut off the harmonica entrance and at the end he ended the damn song. what an ass. As usual, tom pro's it up and I'll bet not too many people realized it. He didn't even show anger, but you could see a smile when he walks over during the last few notes to keys and smiles at him like :you screwed up dude! hate that key player...

Rascal Flatts' version doesn't hold a candle to Cochrane's early 90's version
