Love how they merge the 1971 video with this live version all these years later...fantastic

One of the best and most underrated songs from the 1970s -- always has been a personal favorite -- such a great, happy vibe.

One of the greatest Canadian songs of all time! Brought back awesome memories, at least the ones I can remember!!

I think The Stampeders are having more fun playing as Senior Citizens than when they were young man. Gives old guys HOPE.

I was 11 when the Stampeders were parade marshalls at the Calgary Stampede in 1972. Cowtown is still home to me after all these years. Thanks Rich, Ronnie and Kim for Sweet City Woman!

These guys on the radio was our sound track for many great full years. Thanks for the songs with the uplifting themes.

With all the negativity in the world these days we especially need to appreciate the people who bring joy into it.

My wife (gf) saw them live at the Cominco Arena Trail BC IN THE 70’s! This is the first time Ive seen this video (2024) and yes, the old boys haven’t changed one bit unlike so many others!💕🇨🇦

I remember as a kid in my dad's restaurant in Blind River, Northern Ontario this song would play on the Juke Box everyday for about 4 months 30X a day. Then in 1979 I invited you guys to play at my high school. You guys did an awesome job. But you played guitar and made it sound like a banjo. HOw did you do that? So many hits!

One of the BEST re-recorded songs from 50 years ago on KZread.... Great Job Guys!

Oh geez...my favourite song ever. One of my best memories ever...going to visit my relatives in Calgary and my cousin surprised me...she had bought tickets to see them at the Jubilee Auditorium. Also saw them here in Toronto. The date today March 5, 2024. It was meant to be this clip popped up. It will be 20 years ago in 3 days that my dear cousin Marilyn died. 😪 Sometimes things happen for a reason and seeing this clip made me smile and tear up at the same time. Actually everything happens for a reason. 😘 From Toronto

Love me some Stampeders, I remember when it first hit the AM station WHB in Kansas City Missouri

This song takes me back to 8th grade. I was walking down the hall one morning and it was playing. Every time I hear it I walk down that hall!! Thanks for a great song and the memories..

As an 8 year old I remember constantly hearing this song on the radio. It was everywhere and rightfully so. Fantastic vocals, playing and melody. I sang "Sweet Silly Woman" but...I was 8 years old. The only time I've ever seen anyone happier playing a cowbell was watching Will Ferrell on SNL. "I got a fever! Long Live Gene Frenkle!

I loved this song as a child in the early 70's....50+ years later still do. Best banjo song ever.

I was 7 years old when I helped Mike to deliver the Leader-Post. The van had the back door opened and this song blasted out. Hope you still remember me Mike from the Ozark Tea Room.

This is one of those songs that takes days to get out of your head.

They and Mungo Jerry still have it after 50 years:)

This is still my all-time favorite song going all the way back to when they first released it #MySong in 71 I was 10 years old living at the beach listening on my little portable radio. The memories it brings back. Priceless.

I LOVE THIS SONG. It gets played everyday on my Spotify account. You guys ROCK.

Is it just me, or does anyone else see the look of gratitude on their faces?

Just came back from seeing them in Winnipeg, great show, They still got it.

One of those magical songs that is timeless.The Stampeders were a great band from my youth.

I'm indoors by the fireplace, but otherwise yes! Cranking it and enjoying Saturday evening.

When I first heard the banjo licks in this song way back in the early 70's I stopped dead in my tracks. I was mesmerised by the sound. It greatly influenced my decision to pick up a guitar and write my own tunes. Now I am on the top of the music world and I can thank this great Canadian band for finding me my calling.

I remember watching them play this live in a hockey rink in my hometown of Saint John, New Brunswick in the early seventies. It's still a great and memorable song!

Love the tune since the 70's

Great job after all these years. You guys sound just like the 1970's and looked like you had a great time recording it. Nice mix of old clips too. Stay well.
