Liked this tune when it first came out and it's still a great song. I assume the "legal" issues with this video were never resolved as it's had to find. Rock on, SRB!

Thanks Sam you did a great job on this song. It will always be one of my all time favorites.. genuineness in my opinion.

I grew up in Detroit, very young when the riots were happening, My memories are bitter sweet but mostly happy ones . A lot of good memories too ,can't explain it would take to long.I hold on to those good memories and respect those that do to. Peace to everyone. My old home town.. still love it and always will..

I'm now 72 years old but remember these times like it was yesterday! "It was the best of times & the worst of times"! Love the song, lyrics & all.

As far back as I can remember they've been looking for a Detroit song on par with New York, New York or Left My Heart in San Francisco. Then they came up with that lame Sammy Davis Hello Detroit song. Just awful. There have been others that have been just as corny. Detroit just isn't that kind of champagne city. This is an excellent song that captures the feel of the history of the city in the lyrics and melody. They're probably still searching for that Detroit song. Well you know what, this is a pretty damn good one right here. And yes I DO live IN the city and have my whole life 50+ years.

Does anyone know why this album has been removed from Spotify?

"We were apostles / They were the high priests / We lived the hustle / The keepers of the backbeat"

Can you say "sponsorship by Stella"?...love the song, anyway.

shame Detroit is no longer what it once was thanks to greedy corporate fat cats who even after the country bailed them out for their recklessness and exploiting of NAFTA and other goodies, still left them bankrupt and are fucking over their workers by now stripping them of their pensions. pity.

FUUUUUCKKK!!!! WHERES THE REST OF IT!!!!

Great video. Too bad the bar scenes weren't shot at D'mongo's.

The Detroit Rebellion of 1967, some call it a riot.

Anyone else here hear "Hide Your Love" by The Stones?

Guess how I know you don't read the newspaper? Detroit is headed for bankruptcy and nobody is "proud" right now..

Idiotic cliche for a comment. No wonder you like this song.

Great song!

A "metro Detroiter"? That implies you don't live in the city itself. (If my inference is incorrect, I apologize.) I do. And I love this video. Yes, Detroit has ruins a plenty, but so what? We rock, and we groove, and we're proud of our past, present and future--and this song gets it.

On the other hand, Windsor, Ontario is one of the best cities on the planet! RIP Zellers.....

omg this song is simply AWESOME!!! i mean....WOW WOW WOW!!!

GREAT post ! SO true.....

Lets all hope .....Great artist like Sam,Feist and other canadians soon will get their fair share...I know it The lyrics are just mind blowing

this was an awesome album

yeah Canada rocks, coming from the detroit'er in cayman.....I love the Gordy Howe goal against the blackhawks, 3:29...nice video Sam, ,ha ha ha....

As a metro Detroiter, I don't care for this tune. It's lyrics aren't very meaningful, and the video is nothing but poverty porn. The outside shots are all real, but that's not all there is to Detroit--not by a long shot. I'm glad this artist (seems?) to have something positive to say about Detroit, but I can't for the life of me figure out what it is.

I wish there was a full version of this. Pretty sick!!!

@KeepRockin55 so true, so sad,but i love detroit

one of the few intelligent songs of our time. did this roberts author the song?

@tony0000 well if they didn't film themselves at a Detroit bar they have all of their walking shots in Detroit... Or they've moved our landmarks, architecture, and streets to Montreal. I don't see why the whole thing wasn't shot in the D.

Turns out the bar is O'Regans Irish Pub in Montreal. Apparently they wanted to shoot in Detroit, but didn't have time.

@nhewitt44 I agree with you!!

Does anyone know what bar he's at?

WOW! Shit hot music video! Outstanding!

Six kids don't know how to dance to rock & roll!!!

Wow I was afraid this would turn out to be one big ad for the sims, but it was way better. I wish I could play a 1950s sims game. Love the swing dancers!

I like Detroit, but lets just say I'm glad I live 20 minutes away. Close enough to go to the city when I want and far enough from the senseless murder and crime.

This is one of my absolute favorite songs. Detroit will come back one day. We are all people, and us people all want great city to live in.

I'm sorry '67.

Chicago 1951...I was in Ann Arbor at the time '57, then to the Haight, then unfortunately to New York and the Westside of Chicago.

There is no city more Real than Detroit. We've had our ups, we're taking the downs, but make no mistake, Detroit is coming back with a vengeance!

I was born in Detroit in 67 in Hot July, when the rioting was happening and everything was on lockdown. my poor mother must have been so scared! I was just a babe so i didn't know what the hell was goin on. Metropolitan Hospital, no longer exists..

Max Pitruzzella!!!

Just saw him at St. Andrews the other night. The place went nuts when he played this.

What bar are they in??

Greetings from Detroit. Thank You!~

Detroit 1-8-7, anyone?

great vintage footage

does anyone know what bar they are filiming in?

Detroit is in really poor shape right now. Sometimes I love my city, other time I want to move but I can never deny being a Detroiter.

Randomly got linked here, this is amazing!
