absolutely cannot believe this video only has 100000 or so hits. An incredible period in Canadian music that is quietly disappearing from memory.
I played the vinyl until it died. Then, I bought the CD and it died too.
Man, how we never thought we'd get old.
Get better hardware?
@@elfpower8300 Ahah
Beautiful song. Made me tear up when I first heard it 35 years ago, and it it still does today. Timeless music from a forever-great band.
Went to high school with them in Kelowna, they were ahead of their time in 1982.
Awesome music!
Another band that should have been more popular! I have this song on my phone. Listen to it all the time.💛
This entire album is amazing. 1987 I was just going into high school and my sister used to give me a ride to class in North Vancouver Windsor Secondary and play this cassette every morning., I think the whole high school listened to this classic
Another great Canadian talent that from the 80's that got little attention..
Excellent harmonies and lyrics, my favourite band by a country mile. I remember listening to the Grapes with my girlfriend back in 88 many times after school. I had the pleasure of seeing them at Barrymore’s in the late 90’s with my wife (my girlfriend back in 88).
Great song. A Grapes of Wrath favorite. These guys are a favorite Canadian band of mine. Saw them open for 54-40 here in Victoria BC at the Royal Theatre 3 years ago. Great show with two great Canadian bands. Grapes of Wrath are definitely one of many underrated Canadian bands.
This song is one of the reasons why Canadian music from the 90s was so good
Totally agree!
This song was released in 1987.
What an amazing band! One of Canada's best kept secrets. Hard to believe this came out in '87, they were really ahead of their time.
yep 90's feel
Ahead of their time? not really, REM had this same sound since 1982. In fact when the Treehouse album came out they were immediate compared to REM.
@@SaintMartins I'm not convinced that they were as derivative of REM as a lot of people made out. (Musically, at least. Hairstyles, yes.) Both bands had a unique intensity to them, which the music press really didn't know how to deal with. I'm told GoW's concerts were also a very different experience than REM's of a similar time period. (I've seen GoW a few times, but REM's never been close to my neck of the woods.)
One of my favourite songs all time by an underrated band!!
Saw Kevin Kane perform with Northern Pikes, great to see such fantastic Canadian musicians playing. They've all still got it. This is an awesome song and great Canadian band.
this song should have 6 million more views than it has
108K is pathetic. the music of my 20s. so much memory and life attached to these songs. sad that with all the nostalgia and movies no one has used the grapes of wrath. One of Canadas little secrets.
I know right?
We get to hear some of their music more frequently on SSI...as one of the members lives here and does open mic or so I am told...
Awesome band. should have never broken up!! Saw them at the Osoyoos Bryan Adams Concert with Sass Jordan, Extreme, Steve Miller.
My father couldn't bother
but now he's back to find his place again
sorry but the book's been burned.....Story of my life....
When I hear music like this, I feel slightly sad; good music and intelligent lyrics are a thing of the past.
+RustysHouseBand Good music is just harder to find nowadays. Check out the band Reign of Kindo.
it makes me sad because It takes me back to when my life was actually problem free. I miss the good Canadian bands of my youth. These guys were one of my faves.
Check out the band "Chasing Illusions" an up coming band out of Saskatoon. They have a great song "Eyes" available here on U-Tube
Grapes of wrath
Play the reruns because we'll never get this back.
Just saw Kevin Kane perform this song with the Northern Pikes at It's Your Festival in Hamilton, ON tonight. It was their free Canada Day concert. It was fantastic!!
Terri MacKay Yes and last weekend at the Kitchener Bluesfest. For myself, it far outclassed the ubiquitous She Ain’t Pretty-though I do like that song.
It’s pretty wonderful that they’re doing this circuit from place to place and allowing fans to enjoy this fantastic music.
@@CDU916 She Ain't Pretty is always fun, but my favourite Northern Pikes song is Hopes Go Astray. 😀
What a great song from a great album.
I always feel so Canadian when I hear this song..hard to explain why!!😊
Such a wonderful song and video. Ya know, it's wonderful to have a part of our own culture making up our culture, as a young Vancouverite of the time. They were of what was going on elsewhere, but also of here. Ours, ya know? I remember them playing the Comodore Ballroom when I was 15, and asking the audience to move back and sit down, and like good hippies we gladly obliged. : )
Always loved this song and so glad you closed with it last night. You guys sound just as good live now as you do in all these classic videos ...brings me back to my teen years
So many share this story, great song
Got me through my high school days ! always luved that song CHEERS
My family used to listen to this song on road trips across Ontario to see extended family when I was little.
God. i love my dad. I wish he had been there! Now i have to pick up his ashes because no one wants them.
omg im sorry to hear this. I fear the same will be for myself. I love this song.
I can’t relate to this enough ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Lyrics:
Coming over mountains
that pale beside the wall between us now
since I refuse to play alone
it's always been another
to do the damage you live everyday
and leave you cursing for escape
Each day I see a ball and chain
grow a little more in grain
and watch your corner pain
say'in nothing
nothing's gonna change
why is the world so damn unkind
to one so righteous in her mind
the sun won't rise and shine
will you never find your peace of mind
My father couldn't bother
to play the kind of role the job required
instead of trying he retired
with so much shit to conquer
to feel a long while so-called friends don't phone
you know the pain is not their own
Each day I see a ball and chain
grow a little more engrained
and watch your corner pain
say'in nothing
nothing's gonna change
why is the world so damn unkind
to one so righteous in the mind
the sun won't rise and shine
will you never find your peace of mind
Coming over mountains
to feel the tension hiding in these walls
you see a trace of spirit fall
my father couldn't bother
but now he's back to find his place again
sorry but the book's been burned
Each day I see a ball and chain
grow a little more engrained
and watch your corner pain
say'in nothing
nothing's gonna change
why is the world so damn unkind
to one so righteous in her mind
the sun won't rise and shine
will you never find your peace of mind
your peace of mind
your peace of mind
have their cassette tapes and saw them in concerts in 89-90s
So purple.
i saw Kevin Kane perform this last night with the Pikes. awesome :)
As did I in Regina!
Oh my, I would love that...in Ottawa :)
I remember seeing this band at the Green Door out in Clairmont C.A. they were awesome!
this was my favourite band for a while when I was a teen - instant memories when I hear their music :D
Good stuff! I remember seeing The Grapes of Wrath at UNB in the fall of 1987 (with The Waterwalk & 54-40).
Just saw them (for the first time!) last night as they opened for the Crash Test Dummies, Centre in the Square, Kitchener Ontario. AWESOME! The three of them signed my album, their recent one from 2013.
this song pains always pains my heart as much as I enjoy it ....Makes me wish I was younger and accomplished more .... :(
Buddy, getting through this life any which way is hard enough. Keep movin':)
Beautiful. And if you haven't listened to their latest album, it's a gem too.
Saw the grapes of wrath play at the kitchner blues festival. Great show, really enjoyed your show.
Perhaps one of this song's particular charms is it isn't over produced with abundant editing and too many fingers in the pie. Pair this 80s song against the overly digital songs of today, when a soloist sings along a recording of their own voice, with an entire orchestra as backup. There's no comparison, right? 😉The Grapes rule! The purity of their voices and skill with their instruments is all that's required to make it memorable. It isn't that there weren't other good bands at the same time; it's that they were backed by so much money. Grapes of Wrath survived and thrived via their natural talent. Someone, please, tell me the name of a modern band who can make this claim.
had a very REM vibe to it. that whole folk wave thing in the mid 80s. Again, a really classic canadian band that did not get anywhere near the exposure that they so richly deserved.
Kelowna pride ! If ur this old u remember
Very difficult to Find 'Blind' my favourite song of this band
love
Kelowna.....that's right.
Yukon🎉
🤘🏻.
you had to there to understand this each day i see a ball and chain grow a little more ingrained saying nothings gonna change....coming over mountains hiding in these walls....
kelownas own right there
Hey BBe's! Love. xooxxo
They mislabeled and maligned him. All they did to me was erase me.
On this June day, for all crappy "fathers" that contributed nothing more to children's lives than genetics. Just because you were in the house doesn't mean you were a "dad". And it means you're unwanted now.
I'm sure his dad did his best.
Kelownaaaaaaaa :D
Did Blue Rodeo get some influence from them?
Canada's Beatles
Should have been in the same group as midnight oil and blue Oistercult
I bought the cassette ...was purple
Holy fuck I remember that
Long lost now:(
Or :) really don't know how to.feel.about that.
Wore it out ... bought the CD
Still have it somewhere in my garage
