As we like to say up here in Canada: "We gave the world RUSH ...But... We kept THE HIP for ourselves "
You also gave justin bieber
@@c1awz Gave *away* - LOL!
@@c1awz nobody's perfect! We tried to give him away honestly...
@@c1awz 🤣😂 Lol, on behalf of Canada, I apologize.
Well said!
Oh heck yea! 🇨🇦 You really can’t imagine what this band means to Canadians unless you’re from here. If Canada were a person its name would be Gord!
For 2 reasons.
I live in the Buffalo-Niagara Falls area and the cross border ties between the two counties have always been real strong here. They used to play here a lot, I think I saw them live six times and they were always great. I think one of the best things about them was that they were VERY Canadian, but I think that was also one of the reason they never really crossed over big in the States. Anyway they are greatly missed. Salute to our friends to the North.
I'm from the US. Was turned onto the hip in the past two years. This is one of the greatest comments I've ever read.... cuz it's sooooooooo true. I am passionate about a lot of things, but nothing more so than music and I am so enthralled with how passionate Canadians are about this band!!! I'm so glad that I have an exited this earth without knowing how awesome these musicians are.
Birmingham Alabama here, discovered THP when this cd came out. They came through town three times since then, and I saw them each time, and once in Atlanta. Love this band, RIP Gord!
@robhugh535 I understand what you're saying, but we are 🇨🇦 🍁 and and keeping them for ourselves but we will definitely let you borrow them from time to time lol RIP .Gord
Biased Canadian here - they are a National Treasure. They tell our stories .Check out Wheat Kings...tragic story and gorgeous tune. RIP Gord.
10 years ago trendy little outdoor beer garden this American says hey how about the hip she say not a fan but your Springsteen he's amazing.
Big world huh
'Fifty Mission Cap' is a great song by them. Rest In Peace Gord Downie, long live the Hip.
✌🏼😔🎶❤️🍁❤️✨️🕊
I'd recommend that someone tell them the story of Bill Barilko before they listen to the song, but I don't think they do that.
@correctlyrics I didn't know it, looked it up after the fact. Lots of these guys avoid research like it's a toxic dump, though not all. If someone gives them the skinny, tea, wotevr, they'll eat it up no doubt, it's a good story. Feel free. Cheers, mate. 😊👍🏼
It is an amazing song. I'm waiting for them to react to Nautical Disaster.
Your next Tragically Hip video should be either "Courage (for Hugh MacLennan)" or "Bobcaygeon".
Or It's a Good Life if You Don't Weaken, or At Transformation...
Seconded for Bobcaygeon!
@@Interneta Great song that mentions my favourite band of all time The Men They Couldn’t Hang
Bobcaygeon! ❤❤❤
When singer-writer of The Hip, Gord Downie, learned he had a terminal brain cancer tumour, he wanted to go on one last tour of Canada with his beloved friends in the band. They announced his condition and the tour. A couple of years ago, RUclips was full of people reacting to the video of The Hip playing the final song of their final tour ever, in their hometown of Kingston, Ontario. It was so emotional that a lot of reactors were crying, even though they had never before heard of the Tragically Hip.
That last song was called "Ahead By a Century", in which Gord hopes that a hundred years hence, we (Canadians) would be better people, in a better country.
Do yourselves a favour, if you have not already, and watch and react to "Ahead By a Century" live in Kingston. Beware that there is one video that mostly shows the faces of Canadians in different cities, watching the concert live or on TV (half the country watched the live broadcast). Be careful to watch the video with the actual concert footage, instead.
---OronOfMontreal
My guy country Dick Montana of beat farmers fame died right on stage, performing Happy boy. Look up their old live footage
That concert was the first Tragically Hip songs I had ever heard. After, I found every damn album and listened for weeks.
I was one of those Americans bawling by the last song.
I watched that entire concert live on the internet. Very, very moving.
The heartbreak for me was him ending on Ahead by a Century. The last words he sang on stage were "and disappointing you is getting me down. " And you knew he meant it.
Hate to say it, but while I am glad people got to see them one last time, it was not a great performance by Gord.
Another great Canadian is Jim Cuddy, listen to anything with Blue Rodeo or his solo music. Fantastic singer.
I still can't get over how Amanda Marshall slips through everyone's fingers as a Canadian artist. She is phenomenal but seems to fly under the radar of Alanis, Shania and a few others.
@@snuggy18 I think it's because her career was relatively short, and while the others still tour, I don't believe she does?
"Little Bones" rocks.
Yes!! Little bones next!
one of my top 3 by the hip
Honestly I wasn’t feeling it for the band, until I heard Little Bones. Then I bought Road Apples and Up to Here instamatically.
I will always remember the Hip's last concert on 20 August 2016 from Kingston, Ontario (band's hometown). The concert was televised live (and free) across Canada. When they got to the part in "Grace Too" where Gord goes into that primal scream section, shouting "No" over and over, I felt his frustration and helplessness as he faced terminal brain cancer. I can only imagine what he was experiencing. But, true to this song's lyrics, he faced this heartbreaking fate "armed with will and determination and grace, too".
R.I.P. Gord Downey. 🇨🇦
I will always remember that evening.. was in MTL saw it on the big screen. We love you The Hip… in Gord we trust 💕🇨🇦
Wow!!.Couldn't have said it better
The night Canada closed. ❤
Thrilled this American lives close enough to Vancouver, BC that we get the CBC and watched this.
I watched it at home, and most of my neighbours did too...Most of us had our TVs facing the street, and we sat outside. Little to no traffic on the street, just Gordie saying "so long."
You need to do “Nautical Disaster”, “Fully Completely”, “Ahead by a Century”, “Courage” “Fifty Mission Cap”. That’s just a taste
Great list!
Let's add Cordelia and Locked in the Trunk of a Car as well.
Hey do you guys smoke pot I do
That Nautical Disaster/New Orleans is Sinking mash up that they do is pretty sweet as well.
Ahead by a century was the first song they reacted to
I think their most underrated song is "It’s a good life if you don’t weaken". It builds and builds and never gets the recognition for how good it is.
The Hip sang it as their 2nd encore, during their last show. When Gord sang the closing lyrics "Him, Here, Now, Huhh", I heard it as a primal scream coming from him, a scream at this twist of fate that shortened his life... I might be wrong, but to this day I hear that way. RIP Gord.
There is no question that scream was a primal release of emotion. It doesn't get any more real than that.
I am from Miami, which is as far from Canada as you can can get, but I love The Hip! I saw them in concert twice in the 1990s, once in Atlanta and once in Orlando.
Canada's national treasure to the world 😊❤🍁 there performance of this song at Woodstock is phenomenal.
The lead singer passed from cancer.I love this band. There from Kingston Ontario Canada. very humble. I'm glad you enjoyed.
@@MitchClement-il6iq I watched their performance at Woodstock 99 live and recorded it on VHS and I still have it!
Finally!!! You got back to the Hip. “Locked in the trunk of a Car” is a great one to do next, you’ll both love it im sure!!!
Exactly one of there best ones..
As a proud CANADIAN, my heart skipped a beat!
This band literally saved my life 31 years ago... and that's all I have to say about that.
Tragically Hip - Bobcaygeon is a classic!
💜🇨🇦
Be yourselves don't let people take you guys for granted love is good and I love you guys
Bobcaygeon should be next. Especially if they want to dive deeper into its context. The Hip was a great band for making us look at our history. Even the less flattering looks. Wheat Kings would be great too.
This whole album is dark, moody, and amazing. It’s the Empire Strikes Back of their albums
"Blow at high dough" is my Favorite driving song!
Yeah, if I’m looking for a speeding ticket🤣🤣🤣
"They're such a cool chill vibe!!"...yeah man... they're Canadian 😉that's one of the reasons we love them so much, laid back, just like us😁
Nothing like a outdoor Hip concert in the summer.
This just reminds me of being a teen in Toronto. They have so many great songs.
October 17th will mark 7 yrs since Gords death. I love this band like no other, he was a phenomenal storyteller. Rest in Power Gord you are loved & missed. ❤
If you guys do decide on diving deeper into The Hip, i would suggest you check the lyrics. A lot of great Canadian story telling, and very smart writing...Gord was a very talented wordsmith and lyricist... Long live The Hip!!! RIP Gord Downie..
Exactly. For a great lyrical Hip tune, check out "Fiddler's Green". Read the story behind this heartbreaking song first. You'll understand why they rarely played it live. It's deeply personal to Gord.
As a years long follower of your content and a proud Canadian, thank you so much for recognizing and celebrating our beloved Canadian Poets I liked the video before even getting through commercials !! We are so proud of our boys , they have layers on top of layers of talent
The Live SNL version of this performance is awesome. Dan Ackroyd introduced them. Gord was so nervous he forgot the lyrics and instead of saying, “we’re fabulously rich” he said, “We’re Tragically Hip.”
I thought he did that on purpose?
@@ThePittsburghToddy he spoke in an interview about it years ago recalling his nerves before the curtains opened and how he blacked out for a minute
He has done that a lot live on tour...its intentional.
😂 niiiice
I love that live version of “Nautical Disaster” on SNL too
Long live The Hip!
New awesome documentary coming soon 😊❤
THREE PISTOLS will brun your drawers off. One of the top vocal performances of all time and the song just COOKS from start to finish.
I love the tragically hip!
"Courage".. "Locked in the Trunk of a Car".. "Blow at high Dough".. "Little Bones".. "So Hard Done By".. "Yer Not the Ocean".. and "The Darkest One" (with video).. Great Hip tunes, and many more.
The Hip are always a 10. RIP Gord.
That's what he is here for!!!
Hip doc, Amazon Prime Canada, Fri 20 SEP! 👍👊
Yes that's right I saw his brother on Tom Power check it out great interview
Already out, just binged it, sooooo good
It was so good but so heartbreaking at the end😥
I am SO glad y'all did this one - my favorite Hip song and the Tragically Hip are one of my favorite bands, too. Thanks thanks thanks!!!
the hip locked in the trunk of a car is awesome
LOVE THE SOUNDSCAPE OF THE OUTRO, IT COULD GO ON FOR A WHOLE BUNCH OF TIME
The lyrics allude to a very specific incident. In 1981, there was a 'knock at the door' Police in British Colombia wanted to question Clifford Olsen because Kim Werbecky told police she had been brutally raped and assaulted after getting in a car with a man who promised her work washing windows in Whistler. She was considered an unreliable witness because of her lifestyle and history and the serial killer was eventually released. He used this M.O. before and AFTER this incident to lure young people to their horrible deaths.
He WAS eventually caught, convicted, and imprisoned.
I was writing "I always thought it was about a serial killer trying to convince a woman to go with him", then I scrolled down to see if anyone agreed with me, and here you are. 👍
Interesting! This makes a lot of sense. I always liked the theory that it was about a pimp trying to lure a woman to join him so not TOO far off.
Clifford Olson signal handily put a stop to hitchhiking. I remember that well.
This song is so deep and so dark, yet it draws you in, making you to want to dive in deeper and understand what this masterpiece of a song is all about. It's origins are based on rape and murder, but the song is absolutely outstanding both musically and lyrically. The Hip are Tragically underrated.
One of our Gords. We love them both. This is one of their best songs and the name of the band is in there. I am getting chills already. Every time. Love this band so much.
Oh when I saw this I couldn’t wait to watch!! . Please do Bobcaygeon next, and Wheat Kings ( their song about wrongfully imprisoned kid) . Official videos. You’ll love them both! ..and the lyrics are more accessible on these two tunes!
They did Bobcajun
@@williamralph8396searched and couldn’t find it. Please send link, I’m dying to watch that reaction.
@@melaniemavromaras4902 It does not exist. They have not done it
Grab the vibe man, that's the best you can hope for. I have heard this song many thousands of times, when I listen I can put myself in the place, the words can come out of my mouth, it can put tears in my eyes, but the best I can do is grab hold of the vibe.
I just finished the new documentary. I cried watching it and I’m crying again 🇨🇦
i first heard this song before the album came out as the opening track for the tour in hamilton. i'll never forget it. it is such an amazing song!
My favorite band, and btw best lyrics in rock, long live the Hip, RIP Gord.
Thanks for playing the Hip there is a street named after them and a pier named after Gord have been to both places I miss my hometown I wish I could share pictures in Gord we trust
When it comes to The Tragically Hip, it’s really better to think of them as a folk/folk rock band in a lot of ways. Every song tells a story. A truly Canadian story. When Gord announced his condition, a nation mourned. Then we got to celebrate his life and their accomplishments when they went on a nation wide tour. My wife and I were extremely fortunate enough to catch both of the last shows in Edmonton. The feeling in the building was amazing. All the love pouring out. We watched the final show too. Cheered out loud when Gord dropped the “F” bomb seven times on the CBC and they let it fly. The vast majority of their music is excellent. But a couple of my favorites are Gift Shop and Poets. And look into some of the stories behind the songs. 50 Mission Cap and Wheat Kings
Thanx so much for reacting and enjoying "Grace , Too" by Canada's The Tragically Hip, The Hip. It is a very deep rabbit hole you have entered, but a very rewarding one!!!
I will always cherish my memories of being at my cottage, & listening to the Hip, in my 20’s. Hip is a must.
One of my all-time favorite bands. Gord was one of the best frontmen and lyricists of all time. Live in Buffalo and was fortunate enough to see them play 3 times. RIP Gord.
Great song! Another great one off the same album is Nautical Disaster. It's right there with the Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald by Gordon Lightfoot.
Nautical Disaster is fantastic
This is from my favourite Hip album. So Hard Done By is flat out a Great tune.
So Hard Done by and Pigeon Camera don't get the respect that they deserve.
Great songs often overlooked by the more radio friendly songs off of their's.
One of the best bands ever and for sure this song is an all time favourite. So blessed I was able to see them 9 times live in concert in Belgium. The Hip and Gord 4 ever 🤘🇨🇦
I am not sure how many popular songs by the Hip are known outside of Canada, but they have a bunch of songs you can still hear on Canadian radio. THREE PISTOLS, AHEAD BY A CENTURY, & HAPPY HOUR to name a few.
Along the southern shores of Lakes Erie, you might be surprised. Those of us who can get Canadian radio stations love the Hip. All we can say is thanks for sharing ❤
I think you mean 'Little Bones' ;)
@@StreetPreacherr Nope. Are you confusing one song for another? This is the song Three Pistols ruclips.net/video/nteHZ1Ggsco/видео.html
You've found Canada's greatest treasure and best-kept secret; now it's time for our other gem, Blue Rodeo. "Bad Timing", or "Rose-coloured Glasses" are good starters.
The Hip, Canadians' pride and joy! You are missing out if you don't take the time to research the lyrics a little, because Gord Downie is a suburb poet-philospoher-songwriter! Other suggestions: 'Locked in the Trunk of a Car', 'Nautical Disaster', 'Blow at High Dough', 'Poets', 'Bobcaygeon', 'Courage', 'Ahead by a Century', '700 Foot Ceiling', 'So Hard Done By'... these would be a good start 😉😁There's a great short documentary about the The Hip and their last bittersweet, blockbuster tour (after Gord was diagnosed with terminal brain cancer) on CBC: Now there's a new full-length feature documentary about The Hip overseen by Gord's brother titled "No Dress Rehearsal", which was just released and previewed at TIFF (the Toronto International Film Festival) to rave reviews. RIP Gord 💙
They reacted to Ahead by a Century…and panned it.
@@murraytown4 I'm guessing they watched the music video, right? It seems to put off some folks who 'don't get it'; of course, if you don't bother to pay attention to the lyrics, that's not surprising I suppose...
I was telling a friend about 'No Dress rehearsal" the other day and they laughed at me because of the way I said "Re-hear-sal". It just needed to be said that way!
@@TigerLily00 😆
Thank you, thank you, keep the Hip coming!!!!
No one's talking about Gord Sinclair's epic bass playing holding this awesome track together.
Amber hits the nail on the head in describing this as atmospheric. And so, when the album came out, I didn't get into it as I had with the earlier ones. In fact, I didn't buy a copy until at least a decade later. It's only after having them open the only concert of theirs I attended with this song, that somehow I finally got into it. Now, it's one of my top five tunes of theirs. And I definitely suggest seeing them perform it live: particularly the last time in Kingston. (That whole concert is available online and I'm sure you would be moved by it like much of Canada and Hip fans around the world were when we watched it live knowing Gord's condition).
Their documentary on Prime is amazing.
An 80s Toronto new wave band whose lead singer recently passed away, had a one hit I thik you would like. It's an early, syth-based danceloor song and the lead singer was known for his unique dancing (which all tried to copy):
"Don't Walk On Past" by Blue Peter.
"Poets" is my favorite Tragically Hip song!
I’ve always loved this one, since it was first released. Hearing it live was even better, it’d bring the whole place down. 🥹 There were times when I couldn’t even hear Gord singing over the crowd. So much awesomeness.
Blow at High Dough, Cordelia, Boots or Hearts, Highway Girl. Just to name a few. So many good Hip songs.
If you liked this, hearing a live version is 10 timea better. Especially their final concert before Gord passed, he lets out these gutteral screams that drive into your soul.
Hip is music you feel more than try to understand. I saw them in Vancouver just before Gord died with my daughter.
My favorite hip song is.. fiddlers green
Ford has spoken to many with his music. RIP and thank you for what you taught me. May you be with the Lord and all of those before you.
Another Canadian band to check out:
Sam Roberts Band - Brother Down
They played this on Saturday Night Live 30 years ago
Yes, it's always a good day when we get The Hip!!!! Gord was a poet. RIP
Good reaction! I was always a fan of Rob Baker on guitar. For the same type of vibe, I would recommend, "Bobcaygeon" next, and for a more straightforward rock-and-roll vibe, I would recommend, "Blow at High Dough", from the same band.
More Hip!!! Keep it coming ❤🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
One of my favorite Hip songs!
Locked in a Trunk of a Car is my favorite Hip tune.
Thanks for covering another Hip tune. I have seen them live 18 times, best live band I have ever seen.
My personal favorite is Nautical Disaster.
Please try “Nautical Disaster”! 🖖🏼
ok guys glad you love the hip, a Canadian treasure. For Rob - the 100th meridian, for lyrics - gift shop, for Amber - mellow Bobcaygeon. check them out.
good call,,,the first 1,,,🍁🤘🤘🤘
Oh boy ❤ if you're diving into this pool, please look for Fiddlers Green 💚
One of their MOST beautiful and heartbreaking songs. The emotion from Gord as he sings about his nephew is tangible.
@@chrisgilbert9076 it breaks me up every time I hear it
Oh Gord. Loved always and always. You are so missed.
Such a jam!
Before Gord passed the Hip did a Canadian Tour for the fans. Amazing band and better people. Amazing live seen them 3 times.
40 years later we still have no idea what this song is about but it's one of their best. Slightly sinister.
The Hip documentary, "Not a dress rehearsal", premiere at TIFF this September. People singing their songs in the streets while waiting to get in...Very emotional for the rest of the band members and Gord's brother. Enjoy more Hip, please.
The Hip are
Legendary!!!
Gord Downie is like maple syrup with a million watts of power.
Another great Canadian band who happen to be discovered by SRV is Colin James and the little big band, with songs like Three Hours Past Midnight, Cadillac Baby or I Just Came Back
When they're in concert or when they were, he would say we're tragically hip at the beginning instead of I'm fabulously rich
I've been a big fan of the The Hip since the 1990's, and I was lucky enough to see them live multiple times back them. Watching you all enjoy them is a real pleasure.
So many great Canadian bands. 54-40, our Lady peace, Sam Robert's band,
The Hip's vibe is "what if a bunch of poets started a bar band" and nobody has ever really duplicated it.
This entire album Day for Night was recorded in New Orleans, and they tried to give it an edgy, dark, and moody feel. I think they really delivered.
Love the hip. Check out Wheat Kings and Pretty Things
Wheat kings! Awesome song about a tragedy in my hometown Saskatoon.
Great tune!
I don't see any recommendations for "Locked in the Trunk of a Car". It's got a cool vibe, too but it's also got a tension to it.
Luv the video as well
NOW THAT WAS A FREAKIN' RIDE!!! AWESOME!
They were absolutely fantastic live.
GREAT reaction Amber & Jay!! Thanks for continuing the love for our Canadian constants - The Hip! This is such an awesome tune.
HIGHLY recommend my #1 Hip tune - Bobcaygeon! Gord Downie's (RIP) lyrics are just so poetic in it (well, really they are all the time, but the vibe of that song has always hit me!)
Cheers from Canada, eh!
A great Canadian band!
The lyrics are about a pimp persuading a new girl to join him for riches and protection. At the end of the song you can hear Gord yell “Pimp”, like a bystander trying to warn the girl what this guy is.
An amazing band that produces songs with poetic & provocative lyrics.
They’re from Kingston On Canada. And have so much more that you guys need to react to. They’re a great bunch of guys also (RIP Gord) my daughter and I went to see Stop Making Sense on the rerelease last year, and Robbie Baker (lead guitarist) his wife, and a couple friends sat in front of us, and we chatted with them like it was everyday, good, down to earth Kingstonians, a day I won’t forget for a long time!
I always get the sads when I listen to The Hip...Gord Downie was The Tragically Hip.
Another underrated Canadian band that really never got too much international attention but I think it's great is 'Billy Talent' and especially the song 'Viking Death March' Bur their entire catalog is so fantastic!
Hip guitarist Robbie Baker has a guitar made from old El Mocambo wood (some famous SRV live recordings from there) and he calls the guitar ELMO! And he "tickles" Elmo. 😳😂 So great.
I love The Hip!! Courage, Wheat Kings, Gus, the Polor Bear from Central Park, Locked in the Trunk of a Car!!!
R. I.P. Gord 💕🇨🇦
This whole album has a really dark feeling to it- but brilliantly beautiful at the same time.
