    Robert Plant once said Burton Cummings had one of the best voices in rock. One of my favourite Burton Cummings songs is from his solo career in the late 70’s “Never Had a Lady Before”. Appreciate the love you’ve been showing Canadian artists. 🇨🇦👍🏼

    It's about politics. I remember it when it came out. I was 17. Right away I knew he was singing about the US---the Vietnam War, ghetto riots, commercialism. It's very political. A lot of young men escaped the draft by moving to Canada at the time. It was a big hit. And controversial.

  • @rigelmoon9030

    This was not so much about a woman as it was an anti-America song: ghettos, war machines and the like. I'm an American and I know for a fact this was an anti-Vietnam war anthem. We figured this out back during the draft when guys were escaping to Canada instead of dying in a rice paddy. Women? Not about women.

    It's definitely about politics. Speaking with Songfacts, Randy Bachman called "American Woman" an "antiwar protest song," explaining that when they came up with it on stage, both the band and the audience had a problem with the Vietnam War. Said Bachman: "We had been touring the States. This was the late '60s, they tried to draft us, send us to Vietnam. We were back in Canada, playing in the safety of Canada where the dance is full of draft dodgers who've all left the States."

    You got the story half right. American Women refers to the Statue of Liberty. The band while performing in the USA under a work visa, were almost forced to join America's Vietnam War. They quickly returned across our boarder, found a gig to play at when lead guitarist Randy (BTO fame) broke a string. Burton still freak about almost being drafted, began singing the lyric "American Women Stay Away From Me". Hardcore Canadians remember Burton Cummings back when he was a lounge singer under the aliases Frankie Fontaine. ruclips.net/video/uMgwUAnXEdE/видео.html 😉

    You guys pointed out that this wasn't written, it was improvised. Did you know that the Bachman Turner Overdrive song Takin' Care of Business was ALSO a song that was improvised on stage in front of a live audience? One night Fred Turner wore out his voice and Randy Bachman told the band to follow along and Randy sang the reworked lyrics to his song White Collar Worker, changing the chorus to TCB on the spot? That's two huge hits for Bachman that were both made up in front of the audience. Extremely talented dude.

    I think the Guess Who are a terrific group, and Burton Cummings has, with Eric Burdon, one of my top voices in rock. They had a number of big radio hits, like "These Eyes", "No Time", "No Sugar Tonight/New Mother Nature", as well as a lot of other really great material, like "Undun", "Guns, Guns, Guns", "A Wednesday In Your Garden", "Three More Days", "So Long Bannatyne". Bachman had almost a Frippertronic kind of tone going on with the lead here, very cool. They also did a great 16-minute jam on this song on the "Live at the Paramount" album.

    It was an antiwar song. At the time there was a lot of anti American sentiment in with younger people in Canada, partly due to the Vietnam War and all the civil rights issues, but also because US culture was dominating Canada (due to population and economic differences). Canadian acts invariably had to move to the US to make a decent living which also led to resentment. Burton's story was just that. He was being polite.

    You guys might cuss a blue streak, but I appreciate that you don't on the channel. Very refreshing to me. Cumming's voice was one of the most unique at the time with the very fast vibrato, but also the grit. Wasn't hard on the eyes either! One of my favorites. As others have said, a number of great songs to choose from.

    My niece hated them just because of this song. She liked it fine when Lenny Kravitz did it. I did too!

    My parents love this band. So I have heard this songs thousands of times. His voice is so distinct. All their songs are great! Love to learn new facts... the real reason the song was written. The drummer is killing it...

    Manitoba is one of the Canadian provinces (we don't have states), roughly the same land size of Texas, located right above North Dakota and Minnesota (central Canada). Ya, ya... Canadian geography isn't a big thing for "most" Americans (apparently). /shrug

    I am going to echo a comment from below. Sort of. Bachman Turner Overdrive sings one of the greatest rock songs ever made. EVER! "Let It Ride" I highly recommend you react to it. I think, if you haven't heard it, your reactions will be priceless. In other words, I think you will really like it.
