      When this was released I remember this got a lot of airplay on FM96 in London for years. Definitely underrated. One of my favourites.

      I was lucky enough to see them live years and years ago in Guelph Ontario at some big music festival when they were just up and coming. They had some epic energy on stage for sure!

      It came out during a period where rock was basically pop punk garbage and hip hop/dance was the rage. The kids weren't paying attention to guitar based rock so this was glazed over.
      If this album was released 6-7 years earlier this song would have been enormous.

    I don't know if Matt Mays and El Torpedo will ever read this, but you played a private gig for a bunch of soldiers on the Gagetown base 6 years ago. We appreciated that more then you will ever know, and made me a fan for life. The only Canadian Artist, or any artist, for that matter, that did such a thing while i was there. Thanks.

      Totally agree! I hate to admit it but yeah I was locked up in A prison in Malone NY And I’m from western NY. Well IN Malone we would get CANADIAN RADIO STATIONS AND I HEARD THIS ON CHOM 97.7 BACK IN 2007!!!!! I’ve been home for years now and I can’t believe I still remember the radio station! But yeah when this song came on I was HOOKED!!!! GREAT FUCKIN TUNE!

      Minor correction, it was at least 2005, if not 2004, when it was released. I first heard it on an Edmonton radio station, whilst driving to Calgary, to pick up a brand new 2005 motorcycle. Maybe you are not meaning when it was first released though. Anyways, absolutely amazing song, that became the given name of said motorcycle! I still rock out to it regularly, especially when still riding that motorcycle, that I will always proudly own!🤘🤘

      Interestingly, I've just learned of this song recently as the rock radio station I listen to while driving seems to have resurrected it (I only moved to Canada in 2018). Now, if they'd do the same for new acts as they do for the old nostalgia bands, we could have a thriving rock scene once again!
