My son died of an opiate addiction. We used to listen to this song sometimes. It makes me cry but I always try to think he's in a better place than where he was at the end. BR was always one of my top favorite bands. Never got to see them live. Thank God for videos.

Were you really close to your son. I love my dad so much but he doesn’t show it and only tells me to work harder. And I can never be good enough. Just the words of good job son would be life changing for me. I have a 14 year old son and I hug him and tell him I love him 10 times a day. And he will come to me and give me a hug when ever he wants. A son is always looking for a pat on the back and a hug from their father.

You say that you're leaving Well that comes as no surprise Still, I kind of like this feeling Of being left behind This ain't nothing new to me Well it's just like going home It's kind of like those sunsets That leave you feeling so stoned Hey, hey, I guess it hasn't hit me yet I fell through this crack and I kind of lost my head I stand transfixed before this streetlight Watching the snow fall on this cold December night Never thought this could happen But somehow the feeling is gone You got sick of the patterns And I got lost in this song Hey, hey, I guess it hasn't hit me yet I fell through this crack and I kind of lost my head I stand transfixed before this streetlight Watching the snow fall on this cold December night Hey, hey, I guess it hasn't hit me yet I fell through this crack and I kind of lost my head I stand transfixed before this streetlight Watching the snow fall on this cold December night And out in the middle of Lake Ontario The same snow is falling On the deep silent water The great dark wonder Into the waves of my heart Into the waves of my heart Of my heart

I have lived in Canada pretty much continuously since my birth in Picton Memorial Hospital almost fifty-three years ago. Intensely and passionately proud to be a Canadian. This song has been a constant of my adult life. I still get insights listening to it all these years later. Please remember to play it at my funeral.

I have had the pleasure of skating on a natural frozen pond, tramping through Labrador tea coverde in snow in 20 below, finding a small lake hardly anyone has seen and being in the middle of nowhere Northern Ontario, this video gives me that vibe.

My mom used to play this while I was growing up. I don't know if it's because she just retired, but this song and couple other Blue Rodeo songs have been in my head. It's a strange time watching your parents age as you near the age they used to play this song.

Great addition of Jimmy Bowskill ❣ 🎸🪕🎼🎤🥁🎹🪗🎻 A truly fascinating band. 🙏For continued success!

Heard this coming from the sound system in my local grocery store just the other day, and damned if my brain won't let me let it go until I hear it again. This one is the one that got away - or rather I let them go. And yeah, it still twinges when I hear this. /Blows a kiss to A - hope you're happy

Saw them at a double header in Ottawa at National Arts Centre, with Sadies playing back up. Total guitar night! Straight up rock n roll/country rock/alt punk metal country. Freaking excellent music!!!!! Blue Rodeo is totally REJUVINATED!

Me and my friends band toured north america. Regina was the nicest place I have ever been. We came back across the USA. This song captures the prairie feel of Canada. I'm a west coast boy at heart and wish I could live this life.

I love Blue Rodeo, they capture the emotion perfectly. I remember hearing this on the radio in the 90's one of their best albums to be sure. I'm also glad the gentleman from Fear of 13 is now living in England with his family. He deserves happiness after such a rough start to his life.
