I have no idea why this song doesn't have BIGGER accolades and recognition within the entire industry... It's seriously one of the best rock songs of the 90's!! That ending is absolutely epic! Holly Mcnarland is one of Rock's greatest female voices.
Holly made a big impact on the Canadian rock scene which was already historic in the mid 90's. She's lumped in with what I call "The Great Dead Canadian Bands," although she didn't get a chance to sell out like a lot of them. Noteable performance was Edgefest 97 I think, when she played an afternoon spot on the big stage. We were blown away by not only the quality of her vocals, but her staying power! She rocked it hard. :)
Tredal Racette Hi. 256k for one song is good for a Canadian artist. The US has 10x the population, and has a great deal more artistic exposure. That would be the equivalent of over 2million views for a US artist in the US alone. Remember that this song came out in the mid 90's, so it is past its heyday, meaning it is not searched for like a modern track. The 256k does not quite hint at the radioplay and touring opportunities Holly got in the 90's. She had more of an effect than the 256k indicates.
Hello Holly, remember me from Winnipeg? I used to write songs for you that could be done with aboriginal drumming when you lived with your Mom? I'm glad you got that beautiful voice out there to the public where it belonged.
Yup me Too!!! But as for me I was in my 20's at the time. Was lucky enuff to catch Edgefest when it rolled through Van. even though it poured most part....AWESOME!
I love Holly!! The 90s was a great time for music. I was born in 1987 so I was not even a teenager during that time, however my older brother was into this grunge period, so because of him I learned to love most of this music!
It's driven by raw emotions and passion. That is something SERIOUSLY LACKING in todays music scene. It's now about $$$$$ not about the music. That's why her voice stands above to those who hear the true music.
I was in a band with Holly for a short time before she was signed. We used to sit around writing and she generously sang our songs that we wrote and it was like we'd never heard our own songs before. When she sang them she transformed them, I'm not exaggerating. It was magic. Her voice was like a gift from the universe. There was no question that she was going to get signed. She just happened to also be a very cool person. It's one of my life's real regrets that I didn't have more time to write and create with Holly.
LOVE Holly McNarland!! LOVE her!!! This is an amazing song, on an amazing album, by an amazing artist!! Fantastic voice!! I saw Holly and her band perform in-store at Tower Records in Toronto on a lovely fall afternoon in 1997. A powerful performance by the band. Holly was as stunningly beautiful then as she is now.
Ah the good ole days, every genre of music was at it's pinncacle, and a hoarde of great Indie Canadian artists, and I had the hots for Holly McNarland lol
I remember seeing it on the Countdown too. So much great music during that late 90s/early 2000s period. I miss the real MuchMusic, not that nonesense they have now.
JAPANMAN Patrick Well, it's only got a quarter million views, so I'm going to guess this wasn't big outside of Canada. I watched the shit out of music videos as a child of the 90's.
Between Stuff(this album), Ixnay on the Hombre(The Offspring), OK Computer(Radiohead), Sehnsucht(Rammstein), and a couple of others, 1997 really was a kick-ass year for music.
I remember when I first heard this song I went to radio shack and bought the cassette!!! Haha..cassette!! But I liked this song that much. Still do! Holly rocks. ;)
Still an excellent song, 17 years later. Holly is an amazing talent, and I'd really love to hear lots of new music from her, and wish her more accolades for her work. I was a teenager through the 90s. So much amazing music came out of Canada, in that decade... a lot of which probably didn't reach audiences outside of Canada, which is a shame.
This is awesome x millions. It's great to actually see this in high quality. I want the Stormy video! I've had the Sour Pie album for almost 2 decades now! That's plural! I can't watch it for some reason, RUclips won't let me.
I was 10 or 11 when I first heard this song on Big Shiny Tunes, but I never noticed until now how much the drummer in the video looks like Stone Cold Steve Austin. Hahaha
What I love is that the bassist is my current 3D animation and pre production teacher! XD Gotta love Mark. XD So trippy seeing him in this video though. XD
The first time I ever saw Holly live was New Year's Eve at Mel Lastman Square in North York with Our Lady Peace - must have been 1992 or 93? Fuck, can she belt out a song. I was sold from then on. /swoon
this song is totally awesome,i havent heard it in a while but forgot how great this artist is.ever since the music channels dropped anything with real talent,artists like this,though very talented,go unnoticed because of lack of publicity and its a total shame because there is real music out there.it is jus not found on the mainstream circuit.

Holly Mcnarland is one of Rock's greatest female voices.
Agree. I've always loved this song !
I agree with this!
Especially since it was all over much music back then. Did it also make it on Big Shiny Tunes?
because she did not sell her soul like others in Hollywood.

Were you at the Winnpeg one? Because I was. ..
Caleb Drew I was at that show! "Coward" made me an instant fan, and I bought her album shortly after.
It was the Vancouver one, and I am still smitten to this day! :) Tea Party just off their Transmission tour was another stand out that day.
She never made a impact like at 256k views I don't think so, I think it's a unheard track

We had NO idea of how good we had it in the 90's. Lets look for a time machine.
I want to go back to the 90s
Abso-friggin'-lutely!!!!!!!
🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
boomer
I know right!
This is a time machine. This song hasn't aged a day. Great music never does
I loved the song when it was playing on our local stations in Vancouver, BC. Wish there was more airplay of her music.
Saw her back in the 90’s . Sad what the world is becoming. Great Canadian music. Love it . One of Canada’s treasures.
I lived in a cave. Heard this for the first time today. AWESOME! absolutely awesome; grabbed me from the very beginning.
This is so nostalgic for me. It's one of those songs that takes you back to very specific times. What a song. What a time that was. Amazing.
Big Shiny Tunes 2! I'm on a mission to find every song I listened to as a child
Yup me Too!!! But as for me I was in my 20's at the time. Was lucky enuff to catch Edgefest when it rolled through Van. even though it poured most part....AWESOME!
MrVapourtrail71
Haha classic Vancouver. Born and raised there myself, funny coincidence :)
That was the best one of the entire series!
I love Holly!! The 90s was a great time for music. I was born in 1987 so I was not even a teenager during that time, however my older brother was into this grunge period, so because of him I learned to love most of this music!
Once u do make a playlist a public one plz. I was a dancer so i used to have all the cds. But my ex kept them 😔 tag me once u get them
My favourite female vocalist of all-time. Something I just love about her voice!

Holy high school!! This song reminds me of the days of a simpler, more normal world 🌎
Kinda brings a tear to your eye, doesn’t it.?!
This song has been the essence of my soul since I was 15. I’m 35 now and it still sits right where it should be 💕
15 is early for heroin but hey
Bro, me too.
Hell yeah
Awesome! Just had it cranked!!
This song got me through some rough times as a Teen....Love ya Holly ❤
Same ❤
Holly lived down the street from me when we were kids. I loved her then and I love now. rep goodale drive
Was that in Portage?
She's my cousin!
@@JFLABBERVILLE yes
Wish she was still in the music scene, she's amazing. Wish I could have gotten the chance to hear her live.
ahhh....such beautiful 90's songs.
Ah the good ole days, every genre of music was at it's pinncacle, and a hoarde of great Indie Canadian artists, and I had the hots for Holly McNarland lol
Her voice is beyond amazing. Shes so underrated :(
loved this song when i was young still love it today! 💗
Underrated Canadian hero and legend.
One of my favorite artist of the 90s.
Strong. Hearts pounding after seeing this again after so many years.
Amazing voice!😍 still remember watching this on MuchMusic when it was on the countdown!😁
miss the much music countdown
I remember seeing it on the Countdown too. So much great music during that late 90s/early 2000s period. I miss the real MuchMusic, not that nonesense they have now.
Wow! First time hearing this ever today, and just the first 3 seconds has me hooked. That is some haunting guitar.
Wow, too bad you did not grow up in the 90's... :) Glad you like!

You haven't seen nothing until you've seen her in real life,the entire roof shakes from her vocals
This song is going to go to the top like it was supposed to do in the '90s they weren't ready for you but I think we are now XOXO
One of the all time best female rock singers. This is a PERFECT rock video. Love her to death.
Such a good song , we all feel better when we are numb .
What an incredible voice ❤️❤️❤️👍🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
2016, still keeping the music alive
great singer and such an underrated artist
She's so tiny but has this booming powerful captivating voice.
love this song
"I can't hate with my eyes open"
Brilliant.
she's perfection live I swear it
I remember seeing her at Sam the Record man in Vancouver in the 90s. Sad no more record stores either :(
Met her when she did a show in my hometown. She's awesome.
I remember when I first heard this song I went to radio shack and bought the cassette!!! Haha..cassette!! But I liked this song that much. Still do! Holly rocks. ;)
tallcoolone09 do you still have it? How much you want for it
LOVE IT!!!!
The ENTIRE ALBUM is sooo good!
Would love to have MORE HOLLY!!!
(fan from Winnipeg)
her angst songs are awesome. great songwriter with a unique voice. the craft of the songs remind me of matthew good
She sings on a Matthew Good Band track actually. "Flight Recorder From Viking 7".
she sounds like Dolores O'Riordan from The Cranberries
So much better than the crap that is popular today. Holly deserves more accolades.
That is utterly amazing! Thank you, Holly. Wow!
Oh 90's... Missed but never forgotten
What a great song...what a great voice!
nostalgic af
Discovered this song in 2024
I loved her so much she just exploded on my old CD player from the 90s.
She's always been one of my faves.
much music totally sold out - i miss the days of lazing around watching music videos all day and creating things to send into RSVP
Back in the day, Much Music used to actually play music videos and give away 2 slice toasters
Combat des clips. Only $1.00 a call to vote for your favourite video of the week.
Me too
much now is trash
Much music totally sold out . Now they don’t even play music it’s so dumb!
i miss the 90's and good music.
she was hot as hell back in the day. probably still is.
Holly's first two LPs were amazing
Love her seen her at Edgefest in 1997
Still an excellent song, 17 years later. Holly is an amazing talent, and I'd really love to hear lots of new music from her, and wish her more accolades for her work.
I was a teenager through the 90s. So much amazing music came out of Canada, in that decade... a lot of which probably didn't reach audiences outside of Canada, which is a shame.
Phenomenal song...prey...
Still AWESOME in 2014!!
Man I was looking for this for years and I just found it.
Love this song!
This is awesome x millions. It's great to actually see this in high quality. I want the Stormy video! I've had the Sour Pie album for almost 2 decades now! That's plural! I can't watch it for some reason, RUclips won't let me.
So powerful no mic needed
Such a great song.
My mum used to play this song all the time, i love it, im sad it's not on spotify
I know it's been a while...but if you still haven't added it, it's up on Spotify now
2021 I was obsessed at 10 and still am this song is amazing ....I told my kids this is music
awesome after 20 years!!
Look at that people playing actual instruments 🎸
People are still playing instruments.
Another long lost casualty to jagged little pill. She deserves so much more.
+Meester Lilith Yes, she is remarkable.
+Meester Lilith JLP came out 2 years earlier. After this album Holly went and made a baby instead of toured. You reap what you sow.
Wow way to go Holly
I was 10 or 11 when I first heard this song on Big Shiny Tunes, but I never noticed until now how much the drummer in the video looks like Stone Cold Steve Austin. Hahaha
What?
I always thought Big Show
Pawn stars se
@@trevmac8362 AND THATS THE BOTTOM LINE!
Love this song!
Namaste.
:)
A Definite Thumbs up.
Big Shiny Tunes 2
it's on the second big shiny tunes cd
Found her because of a song she sang in called 'Flight Recorder From Viking 7-Matthew Good Band.' Oh how I love that song
What I love is that the bassist is my current 3D animation and pre production teacher! XD Gotta love Mark. XD So trippy seeing him in this video though. XD
woooo she's got a kickstarter for a new music video. fund itttttt people
I would rather be numb, or feel pain. Feeling anything else is too much.
Back when music was real.
I feel better when I'm numb❤
Love you holly ❤️. Ill keep this music alive forever
Beautiful voice

I’m open when this plays
My favorite band PRO-PAIN but this song is amazing loved it since it was released.
Good Winnipeg Girl. " I can't hate with my eyes open." Truth in those lyrics, in my world, anyway.
Such a huge crush on her
The first time I ever saw Holly live was New Year's Eve at Mel Lastman Square in North York with Our Lady Peace - must have been 1992 or 93? Fuck, can she belt out a song. I was sold from then on. /swoon
