The Pursuit of Happiness
Добавлен 1 сен 2022
The Pursuit Of Happiness was formed in 1985 in Toronto, ON. Their debut single, “I’m an Adult Now”, quickly became a smash hit across Canada in 1986, sparked by a low-budget video which made it onto the Canadian music video channel MuchMusic. In 1988, they signed to Chrysalis Records. Their debut album, Love Junk, was produced by Todd Rundgren and released that year. “I’m an Adult Now” was re-recorded and re-released as a single, making it to the charts a second time. In January 1989 the song peaked at No. 6 on Billboard’s alternative songs chart. It was followed by “She’s So Young” and “Hard To Laugh”. The album sold over 100,000 copies in Canada and was certified platinum. TPOH continued recording music and touring into the 90s, and was inducted into the Canadian Indies Hall of Fame in 2006. More recently, they have been performing across the country and keeping the music alive. TPOH are truly an independent darling.

This video makes me nostalgic for 80s Toronto.
back in the day, my buddy thought this song was called “i’m on the dole now”. must have been his coronation street love manipulating his thinking.
This song hits different at age 50-something than it did as a teen...
FFS, is there not a better resolution copy out there somewhere?

Even more true everyday
I haven't had time to shower yet.
So I have these idiots coming over to see if this fragile adult needs their help that I never asked for.
My little brother and I (I was 16, he was 12) seen you guys in Winnipeg and met the band in the green room at the Winnipeg convention centre. Thanks for the Dimes Moe!
Wish they had become millionaires but I think he did well in life.
I remember seeing them perform at the university here in Saint John, New Brunswick, Canada 🇨🇦. It was a great time. Hi Moe 👋
Hey , I’m just outside SJ
Why are there 2 videos for this? Did they get a major label deal in there somewhere? Cause this is better by far!
They weren’t signed yet, so they produced this video on their own to put their name out. It got a bit of exposure on muchmusic and some college radio play, which caught the ear of Chrysalis, who then signed them to record Love Junk.
Toronto, 1986
The single was produced by Todd Rundgren.
No, it was self-produced. He produced their first album, Love Junk.
This version is different than the one that ended up on “Love Junk”
I have this vinyl and it’s great. Love all the extra tracks!
Love love love the band. Seeing you live October 29th in Brampton
Really cool song 👍
