Hasn't Hit Me Yet (Live from Halifax)

[@marcelmallory2761]

I returned to Pennsylvania in July of 1994 after an annual trip to Lake Mississagagon in Ontario with a copy of "Five Days in July". Went to my best friends house and introduced him to Blue Rodeo. The band quickly became one of our favorite bands and we listened to them often when we were together. This song was one of his favorites. Sadly, after 47 years of friendship and doing virtually everything together he passed away in November of 2022 from cancer. Now whenever I listen to Blue Rodeo and more so this song in particular it puts me in a melancholy state of mind but it also reminds me of the great times my buddy and I had together. RIP Dave, I will miss you until we meet again....

Just another reminder of how great a band they are -- and have been for so many years.

[@holmike9]

Wow!! I've just discovered Blue Rodeo. These guys are fantastic! I live in New York 90 minutes from Canada and they never play them here. Been a Rush fan for 40 years, absolutely Love The Hip and now Blue Rodeo! Great music, Great people, and Great beer in Canada!!

[@bobjones6572]

Way back when, Rolling Stone Magazine had these guys on the cover with the caption " The Next Great American Band Is Canadian"

[@scottryder1597]

At one point before they found their success they moved to New York thinking they'd have a better chance there. Eventually they came back to Toronto.

[@FixNewsPlease]

I feel sad to hear that. I've loved this band for so long...glad you found them ♥

[@Madscheva97531]

I'm so glad you discovered Canada even more. Make it your bucket list to watch them at least once.

[@FixNewsPlease]

Check out Matt Mays. Another Canadian band likely unheard of in the US. kzbin.info/www/bejne/e3mze4eYlrKKerc

[@theread59]

I'm Australian, but most of my family are Canadian. I've been visiting them regularly since 1984 and this song takes me back there more than any other. The audience singing along is gold. I love it.

[@cgonneville6677]

This is a critical piece of Canadiana.

[@johnmichaelbyrne6551]

Halifax is special. Next time your in Canada, Halifax should be on your bucket list.

[@arlisskowski]

That's a hell of a lot of flying

[@gluck5238]

The audience looks so happy, they're not screaming so loud nobody can hear the actual music, they're all just enjoying the music, enjoying singing it, enjoying the whole song, concert and life in that moment. In short, this is my perfect idea of "at peace". Love this band.

[@bergkamp48]

late night outdoor concert...a few cold ones...Blue Rodeo

[@carlmcnamara5396]

great song to just sing along

[@macwatson7227]

These guys are without a doubt national icons.

[@kevinpusey4902]

The Tragically Hip, too:)

[@graemenugent3924]

Moments like these are what all the years of hard work are for. Amazing.

[@nelsonfreeborn4698]

Being there, for this, was incredible! Goosebumps while it was happening & goosebumps hearing this moment in time; all these years later. ❤️ Blue Rodeo is a Canadian treasure. 🇨🇦

[@Badm00nrRising]

Fk yea❤

[@travysdad]

amongst the greatest songs ever written IMO

[@RaoulDukeSr]

You are absolutely correct 🙏

[@michaelgmcauliffe]

As a bass player myself since 1985 and have played guitar since 1975 i must say blue rodeos bass player is incredible. as the bassist he absolutely propels this band.I Will be a huge Blue Rodeo for the rest of my days!!! This is too me one of the greatest songs EVER written!!!!!!!!!!

[@lostsignalspodcast]

we bass players are the core. lots of people dont hum guitar riffs they hum basslines.

[@keithkoenig5320]

Good Lord, I love, LOVE this band and have for a few decades now. A slice of Canadian genius and beauty served to me on a silver platter here in Kansas City.

[@fuiplu]

Tip of the hat to the audience..Word for word sang this pure Candiana song with one of Canada's finest

[@keh956]

Just got hooked into Blue Rodeo… as a 30 year old Canadian I thought it was my civic duty to give’r a try. Man I’m glad I did.

[@stephenrobinson1648]

This song hits hard for all Canadians, just like Bobcaygeon, Underwhelmed, or I Will Give You Anything. Keeps us together as a nation.

[@manoman9669]

I was in Dartmouth working that day,and couldn't concentrate, knowing that I was going to Halifax that evening,great concert!

[@errollleggo447]

When you don't want the song to end. So Good!

[@simonmarshall19]

Lots of Love & Respect for the Halifax Fans . You are amazing .

[@GlenRobertsonMusic]

Must be in the top 10 greatest songs of all time thank you for sharing!

[@nigelbathurst9817]

what a insane tune. drum fill at 0.58 is just stellar....

[@drogoreuak1347]

was at the concert in Halifax November of last year. They saved this song for dead last and it was the same reaction. Everyone was singing together. It was cool. Thanks Blue Rodeo. You made it a great night.

[@conedweller2003]

I was there too.

[@christopherlewis8301]

FUCK YEAH!!!!!! Oh my god i love this band.

[@jtataryn]

Blue Rodeo played Interstellar Rodeo in Winnipeg in 2015, closing the three-day festival on the final night, a Sunday in late July. They closed their set with this song, the audience singing the first verse just like in this video. It was a beautiful, cloudless evening, the sun was just setting over the Forks in downtown Winnipeg, the stage was framed by the Museum of Human Rights just behind it, the moon was out...I remember thinking that this was THE quintessential Canadian moment, and that it would never get better than this.

[@Whitesrar031]

Just saw them on August 28, 2021. Yes, one of the truly great feelings in my life singing this song with 25,000 of my friends

[@timothybradley7414]

Canada's Paul McCartney and John Lennon the way they sing together, harmonies and can handle their own songs.

[@RaoulDukeSr]

Just incredible,...totaly speechless I was there in spirit ♡🌲🇨🇦🌲♡

[@trunkmonkeyrodshop-68camar10]

That song never grows old. Thank you so much, blue rodeo

[@JetUpKoala]

My parents played this song a lot on car rides when I was a little fella. Good times.

[@devinjames9168]

Same

[@devinjames9168]

It’s good drinking music to

[@JustineVickery]

You guys letting the fans join in on the song is so beautiful.

[@JohnSmith-dh3kx]

@Justine I got to experience this last night in Ottawa. I'm surrounded by thousands of people that know the song all singing in tune and in sync. Wow.

[@cynicallytested]

This is pure joy. I'm so glad I saw this.

[@terrencereynolds7046]

There is no other song like this, especially for any Canadian. Powerful, wonderful, sad and frekin Canadian. Rock on, Blue Rodeo. I have just introduced the tune to a new dear friend

[@klistiranikrupije1724]

No, there isn't sadness in Blue Rodeo's music. Just bitter-sweet memories, a bit of melancholia with a slight touch of outer and inner greyness. That's it. Neil Young and Blue Rodeo, the best and the highest points of Canadian music.

[@Bmont1491]

don't forget about Rush!

[@jay.0621]

terrence reynolds Ever heard of the Tragically Hip?

[@steveelford97]

How about the Guess Who, or BNL?

[@ryansadler696]

Woohoo! I was there, I've lost track of how many of their shows Ive seen, everyone of them tops the last one!

[@lmn1966]

Thanks for playing in my backyard! Your company is awesome! 💛🇨🇦

[@danwhite7678]

Amazing pedal steel guitar!

[@MrAJE45]

How excellent! I hope I can make it to Canada one day and catch these guys live. Not to forget the hospitality of the Canadians :)

[@Madscheva97531]

listening to the lyrics, it's cool that he mentions Lake Ontario and other cultural references.

[@robsavage9440]

What possible reason could you have for giving this a thumbs down?🙄

[@bonniejellison2635]

Must feel so great to have the audience singing your lyrics to you!! Love it! You guys are so amazing !!

[@dkirchner4773]

Greg proves there is nothing wrong with Epiphone guitars. Love it!

[@Rigel7WasAlreadyUsed]

The day I don't get chills when the rest of the band comes in is the day I've died.

[@adamkelloway3325]

Did Security For Them At Ottawas Bluesfest yrs ago was an Amazing Show

[@nigelbathurst9817]

Also meant to add pedal guitar solo is just amazing

[@riverwolf6374]

Was part of this at the Jube in Calgary 2016. What a feeling being there and all of us getting to sing their classic. Great band, great concert and a real Canadian treasure!

[@davidmacintyre6650]

Pure band.

[@savageberny]

When a Band let's the audience sing the entire first verse of their song

[@ryewlodarek3454]

So gooooood!

[@ThePowergoats]

Fantastic job guys, you're still one of my all-time favourites. See you on Valentine's in Ottawa ♫♪

[@bobniznik3995]

Thanks for posting!!! Nice-sounding video of a great live performance. Awesome work, Blue Rodeo!!! Well sung at the beginning by the audience in Halifax!!

[@Madscheva97531]

they make it their concert habit every year, this song will ever be one of the concert staples.

[@jaytorres2223]

Nick Yarris sent Me here. Fear of 13 God Bless Us All.

[@sandgroperwookiee65]

Cool AF! 👍😎 ..a new fan.🇦🇺

[@adamkelloway3325]

Met Mr Jim Cuddy doin security at ottawa bluesfest yrs ago

[@vicmichele2105]

I DONT DOUBT CANADA HAS MORE MUSICAL ACTS THAN OUR BROTHERS AND SISTERS SOUTH OF THE BORDER. BUT MUST SAY,MUSIC HAS NO BORDERS NOR VISAS NECESSARY ONLY ONE BIG HAPPY MUSICAL CALLED THE GREAT SOUNDS OF US & THE US OF A.

[@MarcDufresneosorusrex]

[@christocurlo3109]

[@FixNewsPlease]

I forgot

[@johnvanderburgh4502]

:)

[@nickblackwood6429]

Blue Rodeo Canadas answer to the Eagles.

[@joshuagallua]

Greg is abusing the power of having the crowd sing for him. It's like dipping a chip: one verse and then end it.

[@MrBluerodeo]

Greg Keelor & Jim Cuddy the Lennon & McCartney of country rock!

[@brianmc0]

Maybe Frey/Henley

[@gvbezoff]

Or Bachman/Cummings.

[@tfishercanadianeh8738]

HEY IS THAT FREDDY GRUGER ON SLIDE

[@pattybeaver7540]

I actually don't like the audience singing in on this song. It is my absolute favourite and I want to hear the boys sing it!!!

[@KEVINKEVINKEVINWWW]

Rather not hear a crowd of non singers sing.
