Thank you Steven
We both came here because of the same man.
Same here
Same here fella’s
Same here
Yes Mr Crowder.. thank you
Another great Canadian performer from the 80’s, Larry Gowan is an amazing artist. I’ve been a fan since the very beginning. Strange Animal started as an “ear worm” a few days ago. Now I can finally go to sleep … with Gowan reverberating in my brain … 🇨🇦🖖🏻🇨🇦
I've had the same earworm as well this week. We're a strange animal. NB
@@woodchucker And proud of it … aren’t we? 🇨🇦🖖🏻🇨🇦
@@Momcat_maggiefelinefan 😊Absolutely
I need this song today because the last few days have been rough.
@@Nepzer1 Sorry you’re having a rough day. Some great Canadian music will help. Take care and let’s hope things will improve. 🇨🇦🖖🏻🇨🇦
Love Strange Animal 🎶 especially when Gowan says “Ominous Spiritus.”
Seeing him tonight in Calgary!🎉
How was it?
i would have said i do not like this song as a kid, but the wheel turns , and as surely as a canadian you will shovel forty feet of snow from your driveway each winter , so too does the nostalgia for my childhood and i find that the songs that were on radio all the time , have become the background music to my life story . So here i am enjoying a classic song i never liked , and find myself thinking this was pretty good . maybe im just nostalgia drunk , either way , i am enjoying it now. .... man i would have laughed so hard at myself now as a kid .
i also wasn't into this as a kid but now at 45 i like it!
Gowan rocks! Perhaps the most underrated Canadian artist of all time.
He hasn't gotten anywhere near the recognition he deserves!
🥰🫶💫
He is from England
Sadly, they are nearly all underrated
Calm down
I gotta say, Gordys Home was my favorite 90s sitcom. This was a great theme song, still a bop!
Just got home from seeing him at Rock the River Saskatoon! It was awesome. He kicked ass!🤘🏼🇨🇦
I saw Gowan and Spoons together in the 80s. Simpler times, when the biggest worry was getting nuked.
was everyone oddly siting down at the concert. ? that was weird.
This beautiful trainwreck. Crowder knew we needed this
Hope Gowan getting some royalties for that TD Super Bowl commercial sampling this song, anybody else catch that?
Those were the real days not the f -up world we live in now
LMAO!!! You think the 80s were perfectly smooth sailing?
Lol no, it was the same as it is now, they just didn't have the Internet. You must have been a child in the 80s to remember it like you do. :)
The 80s were definitely better though - more fun. More happiness. More optimism, it was a very optimistic decade.
@@JMunchen-wf2yjyeah if you were a straight white guy
This is 100% the pinnacle of Canadian music videos. Bravo!
For years I thought this guy was Australian! Hahahahaha
p.s. Canada = FLA and Skinny Puppy for me.
You haven’t seen Kim Mitchell’s “Go For a Soda”, I take it. Transcendent.
@@jmparker78love this song 🙌🏼
nah celine dion is
If you never saw this video, you wouldn't know the guy is playing a Chapman Stick instead of the bass. Cool!!
Mostly loved about This Awesome tune was the Awesome Athleticism he used to perform.. Definitely NEED your music like An Animal!! Great upbost for my Gymnastic/Dance Niece's n Nephew♥️♥️♥️☺️
Saw him play in the parking lot for free 1985 Ottawa !🤘
The intro of my favorite 90s sitcom, The last episode was a smash hit.
What sitcom
@@mattluszczak8095 The one from the movie Nope.
😂😂😂😂 I love it
The nostalgia...***sighs..❤❤❤❤
Very talented is understatement
💯💯💯
I just realized how little of this song I actually know. I want to blame Steven Crowder and I do, but it's also on me because I never listened to this song in it's entirety. I am SO happy I did.
what did he say about this exactly
@@RedStrikerBeetleborg Nothing, but this song is his intro song.
@@cleverusername4821 well he is a strange animal and Canadian
And it's a banger @@cleverusername4821
Most underrated song of all time
The bass sounds amazing.
Always does when the iconic Tony Levin plays on stuff-as he has been for many decades!
Go listen to/watch "Waiting Man" by King Crimson Live at Frejus 82. Levin on the Chapman stick is a thing of beauty.
Peter Gabriel's backing band, Some great songwriting chops. Gowan joined Tony Levin and his band a few times to do versions of Gabriel songs
No wonder it sounds so much like an upbeat "Games without frontiers!"
I didn't know this. Makes sense though. I love Gowan and Gabriel. Cheers.
I’m 48 and I just discovered this gem via a current movie. Such a good song!
I discovered it watching Louder With Crowder.
@@johnscottyward4588 thats where i found this lol, he made a cool intro with it
What movie?
@@annablueheaven1497 probably Nope
Wolfcop? >.>
Catchy tune, cool video and yes Steven Crowder is what brought me originally to this video.😎👍
You should probably stop watching that brain rot
@@MasDouc
Nah... I like getting actual information and facts as well as have it delivered in a humorous way... But hey thanks for your concern 😎👍
@@MasDouc Steven Crowder is very informative, and he's hilarious.
@@samspade8830 he's trash who peddles disinformation to the lowest common denominator
Crowder needs to get Gowan on his show.
This tune is the shit when you are stoned thanks for sharing 🤘🎤🎸🐺
You know why you're here. I know why I'm here
1:29 is why you're here. Don't lie. It's OK we're all here
This song fights like hell.
Haha, me too. "How do I KNOW this song?"
I'm here because I heard it on the radio earlier.
Damn right my guy!!!
80's baby!
Louder with crowder 🎶
im a big styx fan but not keen on the gowan years,but heard this on louder with crowder and was like oh its gowans solo stuff? i love it!
As long as you deliver it with confidence, you can call it rock n roll lol
😁
@@corysean533 who is narrating the video
Klaus Nomi showed us that 🙂
I used to play this album at the House of Lords in St Catharines...all the time.
This totality fits for Crowder. Crazy how things work out.
Was in University when this came out. Loved it.
I was 14 and loved it. The eighties and Canada produced some great music.
A winsor lad Gowen was great
Played with Styx also😎👍🇨🇦
Searched for this tune after hearing it on louder with crowder ❤
I'm here cause of Crowder. MugClub Forever Baby 💪🇺🇲
Well this is now my morning routine song. 😊
our songs are 'solid gold' now 😂😂😂😂😮😮😮😮😮😅😅😅😅😅
Man be Airbending there.
Undeniable
Louder With…Gowan!
Another Wolfcop brought me here. 👍
love this sound.
Ominous Spiritus
I did not realise there was a narrator on his biggest hits videos, awesome
I just listened to this again on a whim at work and forgot how fun and silly it was.
@@Joey_Lance oh it absolutely is, but it’s not exactly the most serious song out there. And there’s nothing wrong with that.
GORDY'S HOME!
Amazing song and video 😊
Who is here in 2024

I thought this song was from the 90's. It's actually much older. Ah! I knew it. My brother owes me a beer!
As a teenager this was my song...
It's so cheesy I love it!
Cheesy? More like jammin son
@@ThereEbumpin amen on that papa
hell yeah
Voice over at the beginning dance animation definitely says "fuck yeah"
Louder with Crowder!!
Finally I found it from Steven Crowder.
When I heard this song on the radio earlier today, I thought it was by Rush at first. (Please excuse me, I'm 23.)
Crowder brought this out of the dust forgot this song.
♤Wolfcop 2 yall!♤ Best former dollar now buck twenny fi store purchase ever.
Are Canadians that bad …Mr Crowder… 👻
❤❤❤❤
Too think that years later he would be in STYX
Ominus Spiritus et ergo
Dominus Spiritus
Who else discovered this from "Nope"?
And the best part is Gowan was of course a member of one of the best bands Ever STYX! ,who only get a bad rap from "Cynical Assholes" 🤷♂️
Big Daddy reference duly noted
was? still is
He told me that I was a strange animal, then he sent me this
His voice reminds me of Geddy Lee
Louder with Crowder & The Mud Club brought me here. 👍
Those were the real days not the democrap dystopia we live in now
Remember on 'The Empire Strikes Back' -
Gowan: Steven (Crowder) I Am Your Father.
Steven Crowder: No, No - That's Not True, That's Impossible!
#StevenCrowder
Nice video, 👍🌹
Canada........
Lyrics
Well they say I should approach you
With caution
But not to let you be aware of my fear
Never know what you'll find (never know what you'll find)
Don't understand your kind 'round here
Watching your moves
They look so radical
Hearing your words
They sound fanatical
Something inside reveals you're magical
How can I get enough
You're a strange animal
That's what I know
But you're a strange animal
I've got to follow
They've been trying to stick a line
In your system
Analysing the defenses you hold
Trying to open wide (trying to open wide)
Hoping to step inside your soul
But everything here is unfamiliar
Nothing they've seen remotely similar
How can it be you're so peculiar
How can I get enough
You're a strange animal, that's what I know
But you're a strange animal, I've got to follow
I've got to follow
I've got to follow
Oh-oh-oh...
How can I get enough
You're a strange animal, that's what I know
But you're a strange animal, I've got to follow
Oh ominous spiritus
You're a strange animal, that's what I know
But you're strange animal, I've got to follow
You're a strange animal, that's what I know
But you're a strange animal, I've got to follow
Oh ominous spiritus
You're a strange animal, that's what I know
But you're a strange animal, I've got to follow
How is this not 80s rock
Came here cuz of crowder
💯 me too
1:30
Anyone here from The Iceberg??
Mug Club Forever
The Iceberg brought me hear 🧊🧊🧊🧊
Always think steven crowder even though i remeber this song from a kid.
LWC
RUFIOOOOOOOO!!!!
Yaaaaaaas🔥
Yep, Rufio ripped off Gowan's hairstyle.
Was he classically trained?
Yes he studied piano at the Royal Conservatory of Music.
Wolf cop 2
🎉I'm listening to this in 2024,after finding out human *are* animals (not figuritively)
1:30 if you're here because of Steven. You're welcome!
The Iceberg anyone?
You talkin to me
Dope a nope
Steven Crowder is the GOAT
Sounds like a later 80s George Harrison song
I think my girl has shut me down ❤after that hello dad i am in jail song ❤she shut me down
I and the Father are One John 10 30
Louder with crowder!
just don't look up
in the 80s did they just say 'lets hit the instruments as softly as we can and avoid climax?'
Basically. It was the style back then. But it doesn't matter, because this song still slaps.
Yeh
The cartoon guy dancing looks like Putin 😂
My boi crowder brought me here
The Iceberg brought me here
