SamoaRowe Posted March 29, 2007 Report Posted March 29, 2007 I was in my family's camper in Maine, during our annual summer camping trip and I heard it on the radio. It was dubbed one of the "summer songs" in that I mainly associate it with the summer get aways.
Red Baron Posted March 29, 2007 Report Posted March 29, 2007 I was just rummaging through some stuff and I actually found the CD.
Giuseppe Zangara Posted March 30, 2007 Author Report Posted March 30, 2007 I considered downloading it, but why spoil the magic of this one song.
MrRant Posted March 30, 2007 Report Posted March 30, 2007 Looking at this thread is enough to get this song stuck in my head for approximately the next hour. I don't mind. I mind motherfucker. Now I have to go and download the goddamn song to get it out of my head. And I too remember the video on VH1/MTV whilst at my grandparents house in Kelso.
Giuseppe Zangara Posted March 30, 2007 Author Report Posted March 30, 2007 I'm currently listening to this for the second consecutive time and will likely go for a third time.
BUTT Posted March 30, 2007 Report Posted March 30, 2007 Inc, do you think Tom has and/or had it in him to produce an amazingly sensitive power ballad? I'm so moved by "Life is a Highway" that I'm tempted to check out some more of his catalog.
Copper Feel Posted March 30, 2007 Report Posted March 30, 2007 When Incandenza linked it in this thread, but by gawd, I am grateful.
Giuseppe Zangara Posted March 30, 2007 Author Report Posted March 30, 2007 Inc, do you think Tom has and/or had it in him to produce an amazingly sensitive power ballad? I'm so moved by "Life is a Highway" that I'm tempted to check out some more of his catalog. Maybe. Ask the board's Canadians, though, as—not counting his work with Red Rider—Cochrane was a one-hit wonder in the states.
BUTT Posted March 30, 2007 Report Posted March 30, 2007 I am currently downloading all of Mad Mad World and I will keep you all posted on my findings as soon as I listen to it.
BUTT Posted March 30, 2007 Report Posted March 30, 2007 "The Secret Is To Know When To Stop" is a nice slow song, but it isn't quite the power ballad I was hoping for. Ooh, now the drums and strings are coming in. It's picking up! I like this song and I would suggest checking it out!
AboveAverage484 Posted March 30, 2007 Report Posted March 30, 2007 When I was a kid on one of those mail-in CD commercials on TV.
vivalaultra Posted March 30, 2007 Report Posted March 30, 2007 Is all of this Tom Cochrane love genuine or is it just some weird sort of...thing, because I really do dig 'Life is a Highway' and if I found out that all of this was in jest, my feelings would be hurt.
Giuseppe Zangara Posted March 30, 2007 Author Report Posted March 30, 2007 Thread was made in jest, though my appreciation for the song is genuine.
Giuseppe Zangara Posted March 30, 2007 Author Report Posted March 30, 2007 I'm not having much luck finding Mad, Mad World on soulseek.
BUTT Posted March 30, 2007 Report Posted March 30, 2007 As I am a college student, I have free access to Ruckus. That's how I found it.
Giuseppe Zangara Posted March 30, 2007 Author Report Posted March 30, 2007 Kreese, be a doll and up it to sendspace.
BUTT Posted March 30, 2007 Report Posted March 30, 2007 I can't, the files are copy protected so they wouldn't work for you.
Giuseppe Zangara Posted March 30, 2007 Author Report Posted March 30, 2007 Given my work, I guess I could get in on Ruckus, but fuck that copy-protected shit.
Art Sandusky Posted March 30, 2007 Report Posted March 30, 2007 I have always hated that goddamn song.
Art Sandusky Posted March 30, 2007 Report Posted March 30, 2007 Okay, not always. First time I heard it was on some long road trip when I was a kid on some tape my mother was playing. It was okay. Years later I despise it, and curse its status as a mainstay at karaoke nights.
Giuseppe Zangara Posted March 30, 2007 Author Report Posted March 30, 2007 Oh sweet, I haven't done karaoke in two or three years. I should go.
godthedog Posted March 31, 2007 Report Posted March 31, 2007 i was coming home from the movies and this song was on the radio in the car.
godthedog Posted April 8, 2007 Report Posted April 8, 2007 and again, last night, when i was coming home from the cheesecake factory.
Lord of The Curry Posted April 9, 2007 Report Posted April 9, 2007 "Sinking Like A Sunset" is a great song.
cbacon Posted April 10, 2007 Report Posted April 10, 2007 curry are you going to virgin. just bought my ticket $158 *rolleyes*
Lord of The Curry Posted April 10, 2007 Report Posted April 10, 2007 Nah. I'll try and catch Interpol in London or Kitchener as they're the main draw for me to go and I'm not dropping $160 on just them.
