I am an American. This song was not a hit in the States. I am grateful that in the 1990s I went to Western Washington University just across the border in Bellingham Washington, and that Rock 101 Vancouver was my soundtrack while there. I remember Rock 101 playing this greät song like mad in the Summer of 1998. So for one American, it *was* a hit in America. lol

Canadians are accustomed to Canadian songs receiving little to no air play in the US. It's intentional. They're being blocked. When you look at Canada's population size and how many great bands come from Canada, it's off the charts. A lot of Americans don't get exposed to Canadian artists until they visit Canada (where you can actually hear them on the radio) or when they make it into Hollywood movies and/or gain international fame. I remember doing a project back in music class and the goal was to pick a Canadian artist and do a bio on them. This was back when I was at an age where I didn't think about things like where the band came from. I thought it was going to be difficult to find a Canadian artist until I realized they were all pretty much Canadian. Canada probably puts out more top songs and top artists than any country other than the US. It's unreal. We punch way above our weight class musically.

@@taekwondotime Dude, I think that Canadians get a LOT of exposure, it's just that few make a big deal about the fact that they are Canadian. Look how many good bands in the States head to California to make it big and then are called a California band when they make it after a few years. Life ain't fair...

I was a rookie metro cop when this came out. I'd play it on a ..discman...under my helmet, get on my gsxr750 and hit the highway at about 160 mph.... Best riding song of the 90s.

I'm an American, from Kentucky. Heard The Oaf on FM radio loved it. Went and bought the CD right away. Was kick ass. Been a fan of them and Thornley since 90s. Keep rockin.

I have to admit, I totally forgot about this rocker. It's pretty amazing, needs to be appreciated.

This is how it's done. Great licks and guitar picks...the art of song writing -- sticks in your brain! It's not classix Stones or Who, but it's solid Canadiana.

There was a small number of people going wild in their Asheville, North Carolina show they did in 2022. They were the opening act for Daughtry. My dad, brother, and I came to the show just for Big Wreck. They were even better live.

The hairs on the back of my neck still stand up during that brilliant rolling riff through the chorus every time I listen to this track after all these years.

It’s crazy to me that these guys aren’t seen as the rock heroes that they are! I hadn’t thought of them in years, but as soon as I read “Big Wreck” in the title of a video on YT, it all came rushing back like it was yesterday.. the oaf, that song, albatross, ALL badass songs that were my anthems back in the day, I’m an American, I thought these guys were HUGE, and as far as I’m concerned they will ALWAYS be huge to me! Their music just hits like nothing else.. a band kinda like Seven Mary Three that just was “there”.. the soundtrack of my life during that era.. love you guys, hope to get a chance to see you live here in ‘24 (come to Fresno Ca!, I’ve got a friend who’s a promoter who I know would bring you out, let’s do this!)

Always loved this tune...it reminds me of the day I got my old Dodge truck road worthy. Guess I was 18, and feeling young and free! I took it for it's first boot on the 401 going way past Bowmanville and back, This song had just come out, and I heard it several times on different radio stations during my ride. That was an awesome day. Love how a song can bring back memories like that. And the funny thing is the song is about who gets nostalgic when listening to a song in his truck! just how I feel when I listen to it

I am a fan since the late 90's (Vancouver BC) and showed my brother in Quebec, and he has been a fan since the first album as well. Keep the music coming. Some of us blast these tunes loud and proud with the windows open during those hot summer days.

This song is actually "that song" for me. The memory I get is sitting in my ex's truck in the morning with the worst hangover ever. This came on and he said "i like this song" and he turns it up, puts his hand on mine, and we just listen quietly.
