I met Jim Cuddy when I was on tour in Afghanistan. I had dinner at the mess with him. Blue Rodeo came to a war zone to cheer up us poor saps working there. God Bless them. May God bless our troops where ever they are.

Yes, and even recently (well, a bit more than a year ago, before Covid) I saw Jim at the Horseshoe - he was there to see his son play, but it was a Tuesday and hardly anyone was there, and he was so kind and took time to talk to anyone who spoke to him. People were kind enough to let him watch his son, but between sets people would approach him. I spoke with him for about 5 minutes and he was so kind, fully open and connected, even asked me where I grew up. Solid, salt of the earth guy!

i was working at a daycare in Toronto . his daughter was in my class that day . he came into the playground to pick her up he was so nice .
These guys are so good and so consistent they should be international superstars.
I moved to Canada in 93 with the love of my life, she showed me what love WAS...RIP my love ..I do TRY!! This was in the cassette days for sure! Great band with many great memories with my wife, in Canada

A true Canadian gem, our Blue Rodeo.
I love this song so much. Takes me back to being in high school, I was into rock and metal in the 80s but Try just did something to me and I couldn't get enough of it. I still can't, just a perfect song and incredible band.
One of the finest ballads of all time. Cuddy's voice. Wow.
One of the most poignantly beautiful n haunting songs ever!!! I remember seeing the video for the very first time. We had one of those enormous satellite dishes n I lived in a tiny lil town in NE MS. n it wouldn't pick up MTV but it did MUCH MUSIC outta Canada (,their version of MTV n far better in my opinion) n every single soul I ever played it for just fell in love with Blue Rodeo. Whoever said it sounds just as fresh today as the day it debuted is absolutely right.

When I was in grad school in southwest Virginia circa 1989, I helped DJed an event for the Taiwanese student association, I brought a tape from Canada during break and I played this song, people slowed dance to this and they have never heard of this song before, I'll never forget it!
Saw Keeler and Cuddy perform at Folks on the Rocks in Yellowknife a number of years ago. They were awesome. I left a few minutes before their set was over. I was camping on the other side of Long Lake. Late into the evening I heard this song across the lake. It was hauntingly beautiful. The best way I can describe it is if your ever in the lake country and hear a loon call out (not that they sounded like a bunch of loons) its that emotion of longing that it pulls out of you.
One of the best Canadian bands!!!
Don't know why these guys haven't win 50 grammys. Honestly. Such quality overlooked.

So long ago now, but this is when I heard who Blue Rodeo was, "Try" I became quite the fan since, and that Jim Cuddy voice. I got to see them live in Winnipeg. What a thrill that was.
Try "you definitely have too sometimes" this song has always been 1 of my faves never gets old
Still love this song
Masterpiece!
I read everywhere about the 80's being the dopest of times and echo that right into eternity.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Must be great souls to put this sing together, I am 57 and don't even knowing how many years I have loved this one!
Such a good song. Timeless.
WHAT A CLASSIC SONG!!
Makes me proud to be Canadian with talent like this.
Blue Rodeo played at the Horseshoe Tavern in Toronto about every three weeks when I worked as a waitress there in the 80's. When this song came on, all the waitresses put their trays down and listened to/sang the song. I remember the night they got signed to a record deal. They came back to the bar while we were cleaning up. They didn't look too sure of what they had done and Greg Keelor even said "Now you can buy us like Heinz ketchup". I know plenty of musicians, (me one of them) who never got signed, so I was shocked. But everything turned out fine for them and this song is still a classic. ❤❤❤

Remember listening to this when I was shopping in Dominion with my parents, grabbing every coupon I could find for my collection, early 90's.
Just came from seeing them play, can't stop listening.... thanks for being so amazing Blue Rodeo 💙
Jim's vocal on this is incredible, especially the falsetto part near the end. Classic song.
Love this song since 1993 when I first time listen to this at Vancouver, it always keep on my mind !
I don't think anyone has to try to like these guys, just comes naturally. awesome talent!
The epitome of music... Canadian legends
Several years ago I was at a Top 10 Event at Elgin Winter Garden Theatre in Toronto and Jim Cuddy was a guest speaker. When finished speaking he pulled out his acoustic guitar and sang Try. Amazing vocals! For me it was a special moment because walking in I recognized the theatre entrance and Lobby from a summer job I had there in the 70’s. Now my favourite artist was on stage singing one of my favourite songs . It just doesn’t get better than that ❤️❤️
It's these kinds of songs, that are the very definition of music. When lyrics made sense... Not like now, where they're 'subliminal', like figure out what they're singing about? We all know this song is about her taking him for granted, and he loves her... She just doesn't put effort it. Simple, eh? Just such a beautiful song, beautiful voice...

I grew up and listened to the band and is my favourite and seen them in concert 3 times and they were amazing to see live.
Just heard this song for the first time earlier tonight on Zoomer Radio AM 740's The Eighties At 8. The singer is absolutely awesome! I thought it was country, but someone else here described them as a rock back with country influences.
Going to their concert in November over in Dover. This band was my childhood, and I still love their music.
I was lucky enough to attend their rehearsal back in 1989 at Bishop`s University and they were simply AMAZING!! love this song still all these years later :)
Beautiful! Loved this song for years!
I absolutely love this song and Blue Rodeo.
U never come in the room the same way twice!!! I was sitting on my couch in the 80s n serving in Army n was just hooked. Great band never get credit they deserve.

Great memories as our kids were young in those days. Proud to be a fellow-Canadian.
In a perfect world there would be no such thing as the blues...... and that my friend would be a drag!
I sang "Happy Birthday" to these guys in Kelowna at The Keg in Kelowna in 1990/1? Such a funny memory. Saw them in concert the day after I think? It was very much a blur... Might have been a bit nervous since I was a big fan. 😄
I love this song so much it instantly brings me to tears every single time ❤️
Great tune. Quick story: my young children grew up listening to this song and they were familiar with the words. Every time they acted up or explained their 'version' of the truth, (which I knew was incorrect, ha!), I'd break out with the opening lines of this song, " Don't tell me I'm wrong 'cause I've been watching every move that you make". They'd immediately start telling the 'truth' and then we'd all be laughing about it!! hahahah
To me this is one of those "Thinking about that special girl" songs :) Man I Love the 80s!!!
You got to love blue rodeo! Their music brings me back to great days:)
This song reminds me of all my trips to Vancouver in the late 1980s.
Oh, I love you so much Jim and all your songs. Never tired of listening to them.
In Florida for quite some time. Blue Rodeo always makes me homesick
Is it even worth making a comment here? They are absolutely fantastic. Makes me so sad thinking of my 20s in Toronto at the Black Bull and all the Queen St pubs. Great entertainment. You could catch BR some times.
Still so thankful for my Canadian friend LS#1 Sarah for introducing me to Blue Rodeo back in my teen years. 40 now and still loving their music.
