Oh my god... I just now realise how lucky I was. When i was in about grade four or five my school went on a field trip to a different school to see stomping tom and his band perform. They sang this song and pretty much all of his other ones, but i just now realise how little i appreciated him and never thought how lucky I was. Though, im hanging the autograph he gave me in my room. RIP Stompin Tom
I just heard the sad news moments ago. When I think of things that are Canadian, I think maple syrup, the beaver, hockey, and Stompin' Tom Connors. He is to Canada what Johnny Cash was to the United States, Roger Daltrey to England, and Rolf Harris to Australia. Singers come...and singers go. But a few grab the hearts of a nation. I will always think of him at hockey games when they play the quintessential hockey song..."The Hockey Song". Rest In Peace...and thank you for the memories.
When I was in the fourth grade in 2004 The Calgary Flames made it to the Stanley Cup finals. The whole city was alive with pride. On the morning of game 7 our school principal played this song instead of the national anthem. Ever since then I've been in love with this song, and I'm still waiting for my boys to bring the cup home. No matter where life takes me I will always be a proud Canadian and a Calgary Flame
I like how there are no sponsor logos on the boards of the rinks back then!
