I hope the boys in the band know how much this song means to so many of us...thank you

Jim Cuddy played this at a Christmas gala I went to last year...my wife and I danced right beside the stage...he smiled and shook our hands when the song was over! The guy is a class act and a true Canadian treasure!!! What a moment in time!!!

I wanted to do something special for my wife on her 50th birthday which included a surprise concert, dinner, a special surprise visit from her sister, limo rental and really as much as I could squeeze into the weeked. Blue Rodeo was playing on a Saturday night and as we were out cruising in the limo on Saturday night having a few drinks one of their songs started playing on the radio and she said she wished she could go see them. I kept everything a surprise and as soon as she said that I thought hmmm perfect opportunity to reach into my pocket and pull out those Blue Rodeo tickets.I asked her if she thought they would get us in to see them Lol. The look on her face was priceless. The limo dropped us at the concert and the band sounded absolutely fantastic. It was a great weekend and my wife said it was the best birthday present ever!

Years ago Jim was scheduled to be on an AM-Talk radio show. He was running late so he called the station. They put him on the air, the host played the acoustic guitar as he sang this song from a phone booth in the middle of downtown Toronto. One of the greatest radio moments I had ever heard live.

I brought it to the USA where I live now.. And it's found some new fans here too.. The best thing about living in other countries is sharing Canadian music.

I always thought the odds and blue rodeo were far better than the hip. I think they re overrated,

It's been 7 years this year that my best friend, uncle, second dad, protector, comrade, Floyd left us. I couldn't listen to Blue Rodeo all of these years because he loved them. And I'm proud of myself because I finally did this morning. With tears, but makes me feel close and connected to him. Hurts so much still, but hearing these songs seems like a part of him is still with me. Can't bring him back but I will forever fondly remember him. Forever and a day.

My mom loved blue rodeo, they were her favorite ! She would be tired and upset and I would put blue rodeo on and her mood would change, shed get up and dance! My mom always wanted to see blue rodeo, she had seen Jim cuddy solo before but never got to see them all, until last year she took me to their concert in Winnipeg at the lyric theater, and it was the best time her and o have ever had. We connected, we sang and we felt every emotion there was to feel. My mom passed away at age 50 from heart failure in march. I'm so glad we got to see blue rodeo, I can die happy knowing she died happy. :) thank you blue rodeo

A number of years ago, they were playing a concert in Edmonton and I was lucky enough to be security back stage. Jim Cuddy and I chatted for about an hour, he’s a leafs fan and I cheer for the oilers. What a great guy to talk to, he’s really down to earth.

Jim Cuddy. When you hear his voice you automatically think of Blue Rodeo but this man's talent doesn't end there. He has solo albums and duets with other great artists. Just an awesome performer and songwriter in his own rights.

This song reminds me of a man who stole my heart. I thought we'd be forever. But now I realize we were never meant to be forever cuz better things lie ahead for me. 💓

I'm an American...Canadian Plains / Cowboy Music is The Best.

have one of your CD's and love it. coming from California I never heard of you all, stumbled on you by chance. what a treasure you are. I'm 77 years old and music has always been a part of my life, coming from a very musical family, I don't know if you keep up with our music, but Dan and Shay is a very popular country duo, and Shay is my cousin and I'm very proud of them, but I love all country music and your music.

Blue Rodeo is and was the best ever Canadian band ever!

It just dawned on me, timing is more important than speed.🍀🎼💖

OMG that voice. Jim Jim JIm. Amazing.

I was going through something in 1995, I was in love, I listened to this song all the time because he told me that I just had bad timing... we went on about our lives and remained distant friends. Just tonight, out of the blue, he told me he loves me... I wish he had said it 20 years ago

This song should have over 100 million views, I saw these guys in Canada, and they are true professionals. Cheers from South America.

I still tear up every time I hear this classic

Just one of those tunes that every living & breathing soul on the planet can relate to.....

this reminds me of my first love. Katrina. you'll always be me in my heart.

This songs reminds me of the man who for almost a decade that I called my soulmate and vice versa. This year we had to close the pages of our story for good knowing that after trying time and time again that a serious relationship just wasn't in the stars for us...my mind drifts back to him and I time and time again tho...makes me wonder. This song feels like it tells the end of the story for us.
