It was funny because the crowd was full of families because the festival is a family thing and there is Hugh Dillon singer for The Headstones throwing f bombs all over the place and spitting in to the crowd. Remember my daughter asking daddy did he just spit on the people. I said yep and she asked why. I had no answer so i said well thats rock and roll baby. The look was hilarious but she got the rock bug so all was good. Her fave is Our Lady Peace so not all bad. Canadian music is great.

Bryan Adams is highly underrated. Another fun one to cover is the Three Musketeers “All For Love”. You’ve got Sting, Rod Stewart, and Adams doing a 90s rock ballad for a solid Disney movie.

[@irishted13]

Which when I was working in Top40 radio, was a NIGHTMARE as you had 2 Bryan Adam’s songs, 2 Sting songs & 2 Rod Stewart songs along with 2 Mariah Carey songs testing in the top 10 most popular to try and schedule in...(let alone the lesser hits from Rod/Bryan & Sting of that timeframe or their previous hits).

Really? I always thought he was massively overrated. As a musician I've had to play this song too many times and, frankly, audiences don't really respond to it the way guitar players expect them to. I've fortunately been able to avoid playing any of his other songs. This one has cheesy nostalgia going for it, though. You gotta give it that.

Like you I also have a top 3, apart from Bob my other 2 favourite singer/songwriters are Jackson Browne and Mickey Newbury.

[@tristramcoffin926]

As the song fades out he snuck in the ad lib 'Me and my baby in 69' on purpose. It was the best cut of the song they had so they kept it bc the double entendre could go either way but the label wasn't amused. LOL Just we are.

[@kerstinrossek]

Oh wow! That brings back memories. A few years ago he played an open air concert in Hamburg, Germany. It was summer and when he played this song it started raining and we were dancing through the puddles and partying. That was great. I've never been to such a great concert again, I think. What a great musician and guy. Love his mtv unplugged album.

[@krisushi1]

The best concert I've been to was one of Bryans. Had the time of my life! It's often reported that he'd take a train to his concerts and notice how he always just wears jeans and a t-shirt. He wasn't into all those props or costumes, just damn good music!

@@charles2241 Thank you for that. That makes a lot of sense to me now. I always thought she looked familiar, and not just from Bryan Adams music videos.

[@charles2241]

@@Richard-Bullock Lol, there was a girl I recalled from the old Montgomery Ward catalogs, whom actually ended up being in one of those teenage sex comedy movies, around the time the Mannequin movies came out, and I thought for the longest she might be that same girl. I did find that girl in the catalogs again from a website, and while she is fairly close to Lysette, I'm pretty sure there's enough difference there for it not to be her. I've been looking for ages to find out what movie that girl was in though. I saw that movie she was in when it was released in the eighties, and just completely forgot which movie it was. No title rings a bell, and I keep thinking it was one of the Mannequin movies (but it's not), and she was the main female focus of the movie too. It's too bad I can't at least recall who the main male star was, because he was definitely pretty popular at the time, because then I could narrow down all his movies on IMDB and find her that way. I don't think she was ever in another movie, oddly. BTW, here's the catalog page. It's the fourth picture down, and she's the first and third picture, and maybe the fourth on those pages labelled 106 and 107. I would appreciate if somebody knows the movie she starred in, or her name if failing that: Roller-Disco Jackets & Polyester Slacks: The 1980 Montgomery Ward Catalog - Flashbak Okay, the link don't work, but it can be accessed by copying the entire phrase and putting it into google and clicking on the top result.

We were in Chilcook Charlie’s in Anchorage, AK and Bryan Adams walked in and sat in the corner. The band was playing his songs before he came in and one of the guys I was with won his album for naming the songs they played. Bryan Adams autographed the album for him. Bryan has a great duet titled Its only Love with Tina Turner from this same album. Worth checking out!!!

Little fact: back then, Bryan Adams was nicknamed the "Canadian Boss" (in reference to Springsteen). Adams had several major hits through the 80s and 90s hist biggest probably being this and Run to You. If you're going down the rabbit hole of Canadian rockers, you also need to check out Tom Cochrane & Red Rider, Gowan and a few more :)

This was the theme tune of my final year in high school! It was 1987/8 and the final year students had their own common room complete with a record player and we played this every day! Great memories. We loved Bryan in Ireland!

Bryan Adams was Canada's worst kept secret in the 80s. He was huge. many mega hits, movie soundtracks, worked with some of the music industry's biggest names. I don't think there was a second video to continue this one. Perhaps that was the original plan, but I have never seen one.

Bryan Adams is basically the pinnacle of 'cheesiness/greatness' A lot of pop hits to explore, some greater than others, some cheesier than others, but all of them both at once.

Now this is a great song! Love Bryan Adams. I've seen him live several times. He never disappoints. Part 2 is "Heaven" and part 3 is "Run to you".

Bryan Adams is still great today! Still rocking out! Still touring with live shows! Still making music! I saw him live in concert a couple years ago in Vancouver, and it was absolutely amazing! His voice is still awesome and he and his band rocked hard for the whole concert! More to check out from Bryan Adams: - Everything I Do I Do It For You - Can't Stop This Thing We Started - Cuts Like A Knife - Have You Ever Really Loved A Woman - All For Love (feat Sting and Rod Stewart) - Heaven - Do I Have to Say The Words?

My first rock show. Autograph opened for him (‘Turn Up the Radio’). He got sweat on me. It was awesome. The End. 😁

Every now and then when you say "I've never heard of this brother"you shock me. Bryan Adams is probably one of if not the single most famous rock and roll singer to come out of Canada ever. He's collaborated with everyone from Tina Turner to sting to Rod Stewart. How he was off your radar all these years is truly mind-boggling to me. So many hits to choose from, but if there's one video I think you'd really get a kick out of its the song " It's Only Love " his duet with Tina Turner.( make sure you do the live version) He is a phenomenal live performer. Saw him twice in 1987. Once at Madison Square Garden and once in Nassau Coliseum both excellent shows. Guarantee as you dive deeper into his catalog you're going to say over and over again, " I know that song I just didn't know it was him! "

Bryan Adams and Jim Valance. A Canadian hit machine!

[@hazelmaylebrun6243]

Bryan Adams is not a one hit wonder. He has many many hits. Anything I Do, Please Forgive Me, Cuts Like a Knife, When You're Gone, Cloud Number 9, It's Only Love, Straight From the Heart... just tons of songs from him., and if he didn't do the song, he produced it. A Canadian treasure for sure.

He’s also an outstanding photographer & has published a couple great books. Also has photographed well over 100 big name musicians (M Jackson, Jagger, Winehouse, and on & on!) dozens of magazines for advertising & PR campaigns (GQ, Vogue, Guess, etc), and Queen Elizabeth & other royals. He’s definitely been around!

I was 15yrs old.....and it Was the best year of my life....:)

[@heatherterra8886]

One of my favorite singers especially in the 80s. I went to one of his concerts and he called me and my friend on stage. So I have been able to dance in person with him. I was born in the summer of 69 so this is my song lol.

[@vickiconley3638]

Ton of his songs are great! He has that recognizable voice that when he comes on the radio you know who it is.

[@PongGod]

Back in the summer of '85... I distinctly remember this song hitting the radio. Great song and Bryan Adams' best among his many hits, IMO.

[@neilcampbell9383]

Saw him live in Glasgow in '88. He played for 3 hours and blew everyone away. Always remember he started the intro for Summer of 69 and the crowd sang the whole song, every verse and chorus, while he played it instrumentally first before he sang himself. Awesome gig and I have always thought that he seems like a really decent bloke.
