The lyrics from this are very fitting today and were ahead of their time.
I mean, the West had an ascendant neo-Nazi movement in the 70's, and they were reacting to that. We just... didn't eradicate all the neo-Nazi ideas back then.
This tune kicks ass. Plain and simple.
Lunatic Fringe and that classic opening guitar riffs. It’s been heard on Miami Vice” that hip and always stylish cop drama from the 80’s.
I love these old videos from when the music video was a brand new art form. Nobody had the faintest idea what they were doing. They are campy as hell today but at the time it was the coolest thing ever.
Love it how all the heads start bobbin when the main riff hits. Always a good sign
I know! I was loving that!
Another band to consider is
"The Kings". Their hit party song..."This Beat Goes On / Switchin' To Glide". Yeah, they joined two songs together, so great for getting the party started.
O God YES!!!!!!!😍💖
Totally agree! Love The Kings!
This is from the movie Vision Quest. A great 80’s movie
While teaching at a New Hampshire camp when this was made, while driving up to Quebec City (in a mistaken belief that French Canadian girls would swoon over us) Lunatic Fringe and Radar Love were the songs on continuous loop. Driving music indeed.
So many great lyrics in this song, all pointed at the Lunatic Fringe "You're in hiding
And you hold your meetings" (KKK), "But I'm on guard this time
Against your final solution" (Nazism). But the one that hits me most and I know had to be influenced by John Lennon's death which happened while he was writing and recording this - "We can hear the footsteps
out along the walkway" which makes reference to Lennon being murdered on the walkway to his apartment. I get goosebumps every time I hear that line. Just a fantastic song with a great message that we will not let hate rule....Add Harem Scarem's "Change The World" as another Canadian band with a fantastic song that has a message of love not hate.
Great song! Another song I was fortunate to hear when it originally came out on MTV in the 80's!
Loved this song as a teenager in high school, I used to hear it on the radio and liked it immediately.
Always got a Pink Floyd vibe from this.. Not the lyrics, but the rhythm guitar and then that solo!
Yep I've always felt that way. Very Gilmour
I always thought it was a PF song. HaHa.
I have to agree! First time I heard I just knew I was hearing a Pink Floyd song! 😂
Same! I did think it was Pink Floyd
That's exactly who I thought this was when I first heard this amazing song back in 1982. And the funny thing is that Pink Floyd is my favorite band of all-time.
Another song from Tom Cochrane - "Big League" a song about a young hockey player killed in a motor vehicle and later released song as a charity single for a real life accident - On April 6, 2018, sixteen people were killed and thirteen were injured when a northbound coach bus struck a westbound semi-trailer truck that blew through a stop sign near Armley, Saskatchewan, Canada. The driver of the semi-truck had failed to yield at a flashing stop sign at the intersection of Highways 35 and 335. The semi-trailer was travelling at a speed of approximately 100 km/h (62 mph). Most of the deceased and injured were players from the Humboldt Broncos, a junior ice hockey team from Humboldt, Saskatchewan, which plays in the Saskatchewan Junior Hockey League (SJHL).
Thanks for doing some Canadian music! There'e another musician who lived close to tom cochrane, I know this because i'm from the same town. You will be amazingly surprised to listen to Jeff Healey. He played with Stevie Ray Von and he is blind. A great song is...Can you see the light live. Absolutely amazing!
I highly recommend a band named Chilliwack and the song Fly At Night, one of the best classic rock songs of all time.
I went to a concert and they were the opening band. I knew the song but didnt know who sang it. When they played this I was up out of my seat jumping up and down like a little kid.
This song was featured in the 1985 Matthew Modine movie, Vision Quest. That intro is epic.
it was also featured in an episode of Miami Vice too.
Canadian musical royalty has to be Bachman Turner Overdrive. Their greatest banger is 'Roll on down the Highway" . Gotta play it!!
With a Not Fragile, chaser perhaps?
@@toddstevens13 these guys would love this.
YESSSS!!
Tom had a string of Canadian solo hits, including Big League! And Red Rider’s White Hot is a must listen!
He played Big League unplugged before a Canucks home game in 2008 dedicated to Canucks rookie defenseman Luc Bourdon who was killed in a motorcycle accident before the season started.
It's a sad event, but Tom Cochrane's performance starts at about 5:53 , wasn't a dry eye in the house.
ruclips.net/video/_HGD12AqYjk/видео.html
Big League is a great suggestion
This song was also used in an episode of Miami Vice
Great song! Singer Tommy Cochran went on to release the song Life is a highway in the 90's. They also used the song in Disney's animated film Cars!
pure corporate
Another great song.
I really like this song from the first time I ever heard it! 👍🏻👍🏻
LOve this song. The steel guitar solo is a killer. Great reaction!
I'm 56 and just now learned that was a steel guitar. Never too old to learn as they say.
We used to come out to this as our basketball team in 1988..
Great tune. I met and briefly chatted with Tom Cochrane in the mid 90's at my place of business...a very chill and down to earth fellow. And very tall...my guess at the time was 6'6" or 6' 8".
Love this song! ❤ Great reaction!
Love you are going behind the Maple curtain again. 🇨🇦
Another Tom Cochrane song is White Hot.
Other Canadian bands
Tragically Hip New Orleans is Sinking, Twist my Arm
The Tea Party The Bazaar, Temptation
The Guess Who Undun, Albert Flasher
Rush La villa Strangiato official music video
Xanadu from Exit Stage Left
A newer Canadian band that has a 70's vibe is Crown Lands
Leadfoot
White Buffalo
Cheers 🇨🇦
It was also used on Breaking Bad.
They used this a few times on the soundtrack for the TV show "Miami Vice". I was one of the first to play it on the radio at a rock station down in Charleston SC.
“This is like a highway road” ... Lol. Ironically , the lead singer (Tom Cochrane) has a hit from his solo career called “Life is a Highway”. Cheers from Canada. BTO “Four Wheel Drive” is banger from the late 70’s
I heard this song in the 80s movie "Vision Quest" the first movie Mathew Modine was in prior to "Full Metal Jacket".
This was on the 80's movie "Vision Quest" soundtrack. Great song!!
When this song came out, I (we) had no idea what it was about, but the solo reminds me very much of David Gilmour.
1981 in the house !
Awesome song guys, well done. They have an amazing catalogue. Used to listen to these guys and the Payolas, which of course leads one to suggest Carol Pope to you as well (High School Confidential).
Is Carol Pope connected to the Payolas somehow? I like the Rough Trade tune "All Touch".
@@Ilikeryche they just did a... duet?... "Never said I loved you". All touch, also a very good song.
I enjoyed this song as part of the soundtrack for Visionquest with Matthew Modine.
I would suggest Common Disaster by the Cowboy Junkies. The singer's voice is silky smooth and I was going to see them live at Tampa theatre, but the concert was on 9/11. I thought it may be inappropriate.
This song was so cool when it came out around 1980 or 1981; heavy rotation on the brand new MTV network! The whole album is good and actually had a couple of singles.
Thank you for bringing this wonderful song into the present. Keep it up. I love it!
This song was Huge on the radio when I first started getting stoned and getting laid - brings back lots good memories. We used to have things called drive-in theatres. If you had a pick up truck you had it made.
This is always one of my songs I played Driving through the Arizona Desert on I-10 at 3 a.m. with the T-Tops off. This song was also in the 80s movie Vision Quest.
Man he really nails (the young man in the Phoenix shirt ) the vibe of this song.. dystopian and absolutely driving down the freeway to a last stand or something. I've always dug this song. It's also on the soundtrack to the movie Vision Quest (1985) and I have that on vinyl. So strange this song should come from a guy who also probably wrote one of the happiest songs about driving down a highway. LOL.
I remember this when it came out in the1980's. Bobbing my head with you. "Cruising on a mission" - exactly, GREAT road tune!
One of THE most played tracks in FM musical history.
Some other Canadian rock bands are
Saga....their song On the loose was huge.
Honeymoon suite...song..New girl now!
Glass Tiger!!! !!!!Their first album(thin red line) was fire! Also did a song with singer Brian Adams! I also have seen this band live
They played front for Journey, in 1987....they were really great!
Canadian metal band "Killer Dwarfs"
Their Catchy and upbeat songs.. Keep that spirit alive and We stand alone are fun and accompanied with a comedic video. Then there are the kings of Canadian bands RUSH!!! I'm think ya probably already know them!😀
This song was also used in the movie Vision Quest with Matthew Modine
An episode of Miami Vice named Smuggler's Blues opened with this song in 1985. Everyone in Canada heard this on the radio frequently.
One of their first and greatest hits in Canada is "White Hot". Would love to hear your reaction on this one.
This song played at end of the movie Vision Quest with Matthew Modine.
Hello Guys, this song is the music from the movie “Vision Quest”! It’s the intro to the final big wrestling scene. It’s epic! Thanks for bringing back great memories. Need this kind of heat on these frigid nights here in Rochester, NY
Red Ryder/Tom Cochrane actually had 6 top 20 singles in the States, with "Big League" being their highest US at #9
Great song from Vision Quest movie. Perfect sound
One of my favorite "go to" songs for many years now. Love your reactions to it. 🔥
Love this song. Play it all the time.
Thank you for this reaction. I'm Canadian and I have never seen thier video.
Great song! I remember when this came out on MTV in the early 80's! I have it recorded on VHS tape!
Holy Schnykies, this be will sweet, a classic tune.
I love the way all your heads bobbed to the beat and truly enjoyed it. I'm 53 now so I was around when it debuted, and I've always loved the song for the best uniqueness of it, but associate it now with political fringe wackos. Enjoyed your take on it.
A song about standing up to and stopping Nazis/Fascism. The "final solution" lyric is the giveaway.
Right. Works with Trumptardism as well.
This is one of those great classics you never here today on classic rock radio. Have always loved this song.
Watch this song in the video from the movie Vision Quest. Perfect match for this song with the great movie with Matthew Modine.
Some amazing talent always coming from Canada! ❤
I remember the first time I heard this song at a dance club of all places , very much out the norm for this bar and the DJ threw this on and I just fell in love with this song. Had to go ask him the band and song and went out and bought it the next day. Still a great song! Song has been in movies and I believe it was even in Miami Vice.
This was in the movie Vision Quest w/ Mathew Modine
Used to love this band and heard this song all the time. Great choice.
Gilmore plays the steel guitar in the song "High Hopes" live, I think it's on the pulse video.
Others have mentioned Bachman-Turner Overdrive (BTO), and I would add that if you want "Crank it to 11" road trip song, check out "Let It Ride" from them!
Excellent choice and very fitting for the times these days. Rock songs are not supposed to be this prolific.
"This is like you're on a mission"
You mean like a Vision Quest kind of thing 😅
Your so right,..when this came out,..and they performed on shows,..and you see him playing that guitar I had only ever, seen country bands play,..think the first time I saw that guitar was on Hee Haw(ok now you youngsters won't know what show that is,.but let me tell you, the musicians on there, some of the best in any genre, or part of the music business,..they more than anyone, turned me onto country, and along with the banjo performance in movie Deliverance, turned me onto Bluegrass),
Ohh and yeah, this is some in the car going on a mission music,..like Sam and Dean in the car driving down some highway on their way to do battle with some demon,..or even better a mad car chase with Steve McQueen in that badass Mustang chasing some bad guys down!,..heard this so many times blasting from somebody's car back then,..I actually remember it blasting from a convertible,..do keep going they're not from Canada, but check out Rosington Collins,."Don't Misunderstand Me, Prime Time",..very, very good,..Godspeed, Peace ✌
Great reaction...another Canadian band that was huge in Europe is Saga. Their 2 biggest hits are Wind Him Up and On The Loose...love your Canadian reactions...thanks
If you ever decide to revisit Red Rider try, “What Have You Got to Do”, “Human Race”, “Big League” and “Can’t Turn Back”. Some other Canadian bands you should like, Max Webster, “High Class in Borrowed Shoes”, “Battlescar” or The Pursuit Of Happiness, “I’m An Adult Now”, “White Man” or The Tea Party, “Temptation”, “The Messenger” to name a couple.
Great great choice! Excited to see y'all's reaction. Classic tune!
You guys need to listen to "I Like to Rock" by April Wine from the Harder...Faster album.
If you wanna check out some other great songs from Red Rider, listen to my favorite song from them, "White Hot", and from the same album, "Don't Fight It"
Greetings from Canada eh?- I really enjoy it when you guys discover some of our hidden gems. Not a Canadian band - If you guys want to check out Larkin Poe for some really awesome sisters playing some sweet bluesy pedal steel guitar - I believe they are from Georgia
Oh guys, there are so many great Canadian bands and singer/songwriters. This is not a definitive list but quite representative of artists up to about 1995. I grew up listening to most of these. You know the biggies like Rush, The Guess Who and Neil Young, and you've heard a bit of the underrated rock trio Triumph and April Wine (Roller and so much more), but also check out Bachman Turner Overdrive (Guess Who guitarist Randy Bachman's kickass rock group - you've likely heard of their monster 1974 hit Takin' Care of Business), Gordon Lightfoot (Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald, If You Could Read My Mind, Sundown, Carefree Highway etc.), The Tragically Hip (Little Bones, Three Pistols, New Orleans is Sinking, Blow at High Dough, Ahead By a Century, Fifty Mission Cap - enjoy the rabbit hole), The Band (originally the backing band for Ronnie Hawkins then Bob Dylan - The Weight, The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down, Cripple Creek etc.), the now little known Klaatu (one of my favourites, rumoured in the late 1970s to be The Beatles reformed - do the full studio versions of Calling Occupants, Sub Rosa Subway, True Life Hero and Anus of Uranus off their debut album 3:47 EST), Saga (from my humble little hometown of Oakville, Ontario - On the Loose and Wind Him Up), The Kings (also from my hometown of Oakville - their super catchy party hit This Beat Goes On/Switchin' To Glide), Five Man Electrical Band (social commentary mega hit Signs), Bryan Adams (anything off the Reckless or Cuts Like a Knife albums), Blue Rodeo, Loverboy and the criminally virtually unknown - outside of Canada - Max Webster (Kim Mitchell's original band - the super high energy and quirky lyrics of High Class In Borrowed Shoes plus Hangover, Let Go The Line, A Million Vacations, Oh War!, Gravity and On the Road.) I know this is a lot but you asked for Canadian band/song suggestions. Keep up the great work. I'm always looking to see if you guys are reacting to 1960s, '70s and '80s rock songs.
Jeff Healey- See The Light Night Music 1988
Chilliwack- Fly At Night,
Trooper- Boys in the Bright White Sportscar,
Aldo Nova- Fantasy,
Steppenwolf- Magic Carpet Ride,
Prism- Don't Let Him Know,
Glass Tiger- Don't Forget Me
This song was my first upload on my youtube channel with me playing along to it. I did my best without using a slide but I know how to play that as well just dont own a lap steel guitar and I only have 20 subscribers on my channel lol. Thank you for recognizing a well written song...
also you could say " As Far As I Am"
At the 3:02 mark of your video , if you turn the volume way up and listen carefully , you can hear Tom Cochrane say “See you on the other side John”. Nick made a face as if he heard “something” , but wasn’t sure what it was. It refers to John Lennon’s passing 6 months prior to this album being released. John was shot on Dec 8 , 1980 , this album came out in June , 1981.
This song still slaps,in 2022
Great reactions guys! Almost to 15k subs 👏👍🙂
Good stuff guys. Just stumbled onto your channel and love that you guys are showing Canada some Love.
Some other bands you might like
Street heart- Hollywood or Action.
Harlequin- Thinking of you or Innocence.
Saga- Wind him up or On the Loose.
So much more
This song still describes the lunatic fringe we see today... not to get political but the lunatic fringe has taken over a political party completely. I'll leave it to you to guess which...
It does have a vibe that sucks you in and takes you on a ride. One on my Playlist for a night drive. It's just a cool song for a summer night drive.
Streetheart was always a favorite band - Snow White, Under My Thumb.
Really a song of the Revolution
I saw them in 82 opening for Pat Benetar. They played a couple other songs. Nothing...we were all waiting for. "Lunatic Fringe". It was awesome. My first big boy concert. The first rock & roll sound I heard with my High School friends.
As far as being about anti bigotry or whatever. I just enjoyed the song. I didn't get any deep message 😕.
Excellent review guys! I remember when it was released...everyone was mesmerized!!
it was pretty well known as it used for MS XP tv commercial. big league was also a bigger hit and used on miami vice back in the day.
I love this ❤❤ im 30 and grew up listening to this through my parents.. i always thought it was normal, and now im realising not everyone knows these freakin BANGERS .
Its fun watching people realize how awesome they are
When this album first came out someone gave it to me for my birthday. I wasn't quite sure what it would sound like. Turns out the whole album is awesome.
Title track from the movie Vision Quest.👍👍
Their other hit in the US was Life is a Highway. Chances are you heard that too. Nice reaction fellas.
I remember this song on Miami Vice. The music went great with the tv show.
Great song fellas and you caught the vibe...not all reactors get it and you did. This is in my playlist HOF not only cause its a banger but BC this is personal. I was in 7th grade in 81-82 and I was supposed to meet someone to throw knuckles(fight).
I brought a couple of my friends in case asshole brought some friends. We went to the park across from the school. I played this song in my head to get psyched up. Long story short....he didn't show up but the goosebumps and adrenaline that this song gave me will live with me forever.
For Classic Canadian Rock, I'll throw both Go for a Soda, and Lager and Ale by Kim Mitchell into the mix. I think you guys will love them.
Agree!! Kim Mitchell/Max Webster...far too many GREAT Tunes to list.
Patio Lanterns is probably less known.
both are so good. some Doug and the Slugs would be good to check out too.
Lager & Ale and/or Rock n Roll Duty for sure. See if you can find Barney Bentall & the Legendary Hearts 'Something to live for' from Vancouver :-)
Oh and then you hit them with Kim Mitchell/ Max Webster and Rush together in Battlescar. Or for fun Toronto Tonto's or Hangover.
Yay Canada ...great you guys are rocking to Classic Canuck rock. Saw these guys... oddly enough they opened for April wine. They opened with this song and was amazing.
Cranked up in the car...Awesome..
Great music, great song, I added it to my own playlist, a kind of rock vibe with a monotonous transition, just right to listen to through headphones.
riding down the highway up to no good. lmao. yep, done it many times . just found you guys recently. great reactions to april wine . you guys need to revisit queensryche.
“ lady wore black” “ jet city woman” “eyes of a stranger” are a few of their good ones . anything off the Operation Mindcrime album as well
Under rated Big Head Todd & the Monsters play a couple of tunes with a slide 'Dirty Juice' is one,
