    My friends and I were playing guitars in the park, and a man came over, and asked to see the guitar, we were a little wary of him because we obviously didn't want him to take off with it. He sat down in the middle of a group of high schoolers and sang the most beautiful version of this song I have ever heard...amazing. So chilling and almost somber...but beautiful.

    Fun fact: Steve Page wrote this song as a teenager. He will sometimes tell the story when performing live. It’s not just a fun tribute to Brian Wilson, it’s a song about mental health. Page (and the whole band really) are on another level when it comes to musical melodies and story telling. If you get the chance, see him live. And the Bare Naked Ladies. Not sure if we would ever get a reunion tour, but if so, it would be a dream come true for the fans.

      Page's split (2009) from Barenaked Ladies was prompted by his bandmates. He had been arrested for cocaine possession. Plus there were rumours about other serious inappropriate behaviour. There is zero chance of a reunion. He did perform with them in 2018 to receive an award at the Junos. It is very unfortunate cuz he was an important member of the band.

    The mid to late 90's, in my opinion, were the best songs ever in a generation. That's a lot to say from a guy who lived thru the 80's. BNL, Tonic, Vertical Horizon, Third Eye Blind, Dave Matthews...

    I was a sophomore in college. Innocent as I have ever been. We were all starting to get wrapped up in drugs. Anyway, my best friend C.H. posted this song on his Facebook with the simple message, "Good Bye".
    I ran to his apartment as fast as I could, and had to kick in the door. He was laying on the ground overdosed, near death. We threw him in the bed of a pickup and drove him to the ER. He survived that, but sadly, 8 years later, I no longer believe he is with us.
    RIP, you were an amazing dude.
