This song is an anthem for anyone who works retail...we want to close, get your alcohol and go...so I can come back in 8 hours and do it all over again! Great job! Glad to see something positive out of a bad situation. From one Team Member to another...good luck!
Kim Xiuminnie I never understood their logic in coming up here. The economy is shit. People might want to live in the void of delusion, but it's shit, we never left the recession once, we've been in it ever since 2007.
I AGREE!!! Although I really enjoy Target they have become extremely overprices. It's still so much better in my mind than going to Wal-Mart. But really, most of their prices are astronomical! Even items on sale sometimes. I generally stick to clearance items now.
What would be awesome: These guys getting a record deal or something from this. I know it's not likely... but for one take, with no practice... Imagine what they could do with practice and technology.
I noticed this got a few downvotes. What kind of unhappy, negative person would downvote this? These employees weren't angry or bitter; just sad at the closing of their store and it was a sweet, sad, poignant video, rolling through the empty store and hearing the sound of stuff being broken down or loaded to be taken away in the background. Well-done and I hope these guys all land on their feet!
Great work for no rehearsal. And no mistakes! This song is more apropos than ever since we are at the end of more than just a bar closing, a Target or a Wal-Mart closing, a nation ending, or the close of an era. IT IS CLOSING TIME. And "I know who I want to take me home". "Every now beginning comes from some other beginning's end." I would be that Target Closings are related to movement and storing of military supplies and martial law preps like the jUS Wal-Marts. Watch and record these stores for night time traffic!!!
He had the lyrics taped on the cart in front of him. The camera guy used a cart. The drum is a basket the drum sticks are a broken hanger. The mic is part of a hanger
That is AMAZING! And much better than the original recording, and the original video. Liam McDonald has a great voice, and the idea of the slow trip through a huge and nearly empty store is brilliant. The long take is always an arresting visual style.
Very sad to find out that Target is closing in Canada :( But I really I really enjoyed this video, these guys are really talented, great singer and guitar player. Hope you guys put some out some more stuff. Great Job..
As a former Hardlines Team Member and Target Protection Specialist I...I can relate to this. T-2550 was my first job ever filled with the best people i've ever met and that I will always remember. Farewell
Closing time. Shut down all the Targets and kick these guys out onto the street. Closing time. Tens of thousands of people are now facing unemployment. Closing time. One last call for new hires so finish your applications. Closing time. You don't have to go home but you can't work here. Don't know how I'm gonna pay my bills. Don't know how I'm gonna pay my bills. Don't know how I'm gonna pay my bills. Pay my bills. Closing time. Every new employment starts from some other employment's end.
I'm also a target team member for the store 3697 :) I love this! All of the other team members at target were like family for me and we were all sad to go this was just perfect! :D A final goodbye song.
What incredible people. Between carts and stuffed shelves you don't realize how interesting and talented are the people around you .This certainly made look at target employees differently!
I worked for Target for years and I really enjoyed working there. Every so often I think about going back to work weekends or holidays, despite the fact that I have a full time job with a salary... The store that I worked at during high school in my hometown shut down despite efforts to save it. I can't imagine having been there when the whole place got packed up.
i'm sad for a friend losing her job @ Target but she is trying to cope. Let's send positive vibes to our friends and neighbors and even complete strangers who worked at Target. I hope they find employment real soon.
That was terrific for a one off with no practice. One actual musical instrument (guitar) and the rest made up on the spot from junk still left around. Wow! The singer did a credible job too. All the best guys, I wish you well.
I walked around this Target store when it opened here in Victoria with great fanfare. Was totally underwhelmed by the selection that was offered and never went back.
I went to a Target store in Vancouver Washington and there was no comparison with the ones we had in Victoria. Way better selection and better pricing. They must have thought we were sheep for the fleecing.
yesterday we closed our store too... and this song and video came to my mind.... so while i was walking back to my house i was singing very badly and loud this song...
DVincentW2 Actually using the UT Tool destroys videos and this video was not distorted you can get automatic stabilizing camcorders now for under $600, I know I have one for my channel and shoot stable video every day. hell I chase ducks around in the swamp and it's perfect video this is an excellent one take no experience video
Whoa??!! Is this the same Evan Holbein who was at Best Buy Uptown? Ouch! Zero for two bud. Well you can go back to BB at Uptown. Best of luck though in your next endeavor.
Man it sucks they closed. I work at a target in pinellas county, Fl. They closed some florida stores that where not making money. I hope that never happens to my target.
:( I'm going to miss all the awesome Beaver Canoe merch they were selling there. The Beaver Canoe home furnishings were amazing. I hope with the resurgence of the popularity of the brand, Beaver Canoe finds another store to sell their merchandise in. Maybe Hundson's Bay?
All I could think this whole video is I hope they are using ad-sense or whatever and getting paid for ads because ethos is going to be viral fast and these guys deserve it! I hope they find new jobs fast! Maybe a youtube career is in their future? Good Luck guys and thanks for the teary eyed smile!
I seldom shopped at Target but the stores were cleaner and better maintained then Zellers and Walmart. Target rushed into the Canadian market and expanded too rapidly. I loved the video though!
Bravo ! Nice job guys....humor heals all wounds eh? Gotta love these greedy corporations. Bring back the mom n pop stores! Target/Walmart..insert name here...all evil but when all else fails start up a band!
As a former Target employee, I know they frown on Team Members riding on flats. I got written up for it once (as well as once for riding a pallet jack). Sorry to see you guys out of work though. Good luck on your job search.
They didn't have to deal with all the hipster instagram/tumblr/vlogger vocal fry speaking wanna be girls filming and asking stupid questions anymore lol

Do you ever go back to this video and remember Target Canada? :'( R.I.P. Gone but never forgotten
I feel like this was the finale to some sitcom about Target employees I haven't heard about
It Really Does.
The office (Canada)
if you've ever worked in retain you'll realize quick its basically a big sitcom
It wasn't. The actual Target in our city closed, and these were actual employees :)
the only good decision target made in canada was hiring these employees
These guys are too talented to be out of work :(
Peter Lee Who's to say they are out of a job? Many former Target employees are employed elsewhere.. many... not a lot...
Walmart may have hired them
As a former Target employee myself, "Push, don't pull!"
Ahahhahahahaha omg that made me laught hard. Used to work in Canada, and they told us like 30 times a day push dont pull
I remember that when I was on the pull team then signing supervisor for the store I worked at.
This made me laugh because it’s accurate! As of today, i work at Target... US
Seems like kind of a moot point on the last day of the store’s existence
This song is an anthem for anyone who works retail...we want to close, get your alcohol and go...so I can come back in 8 hours and do it all over again! Great job! Glad to see something positive out of a bad situation. From one Team Member to another...good luck!
Love it
This video is PHENOMENAL!!!!!!!! Amazing job!!!!
I still miss Target 😢
Well done...brought back memories of the end of my 12 years in the 105 year history of the Heinz Leamington plant...good job and good luck
Very sad to see the closures and hats off to these folks for going with dignity and a bit of humor "You don't have to go home but you can't shop here"
This song is so good! and perfect for our Target situation!
Sad to see Target go :'( I liked it there
***** No more Target in Canada? :/
Kat Love No they lost too much money and are now closed.
Ooooh, I see :(

I really liked Target and feel sad every time I go by their closed Hillside location. Miss them already. :(
i liked Target Canada i miss the one on Danforth, Toronto. ~(^..) good bye target
I’m from USA so I still go to target
@@dianacummer8052 rude? I'm from America too but you didn't need to rub it in on these poor dudes
What would be awesome: These guys getting a record deal or something from this. I know it's not likely... but for one take, with no practice... Imagine what they could do with practice and technology.
I like this better than the original
I love the mic drop at the end. nice.
It was great but the credits have me confused...
To MAY 2015 ??
A TIME MACHINE AT TARGET ? ??
Really good video though ! !!
TOM HANNA this comment gave me cancer
TOM HANNA Not all stores have closed, the separation date is in May.
Evan the last of the stores closed Sunday past.
News to us, haha we've sort of lost contact since ours closed aha.
Man I am still impressed by the guys pulling the cart. ❤️ the talent
love from Target Trinity Brampton Ontario... you guys are awesome
Better life and great opportunities are waiting for u guys, best of luck and life never ends cuz of one certain accident

Watched this earlier when one of the team members from my store shared it in our Facebook group, really awesome job guys!
This video was great! Target Canada was gone too soon. I hope Target takes a chance again in Canada in the (probably WAY distant) future.
Wow beautifully done gentlemen
Heard a rumor Liam McDonald did not know the lyrics 20 minutes before the video was shot. Truth?
He had the lyrics taped on the cart in front of him. The camera guy used a cart. The drum is a basket the drum sticks are a broken hanger. The mic is part of a hanger
I don't want to think of a world without Target

Closing time. You don't have to go home but you can't work here.
Don't know how I'm gonna pay my bills.
Don't know how I'm gonna pay my bills.
Don't know how I'm gonna pay my bills.
Pay my bills.
Closing time. Every new employment starts from some other employment's end.
Ironically your lyrics are relatable and a foreshadow g of 2021 .
2020 wants their lyrics back lady.
I'm also a target team member for the store 3697 :) I love this! All of the other team members at target were like family for me and we were all sad to go this was just perfect! :D A final goodbye song.

creative. young people keep expressing yourself creatively.
Bravo guys! That was a well done bittersweet symphony.
Best wishes and Godspeed, guys.
Ouch. Right in the nostalgia AND the optimism.

excellent voice, guitar and 'drums'. Hopefully you guys can make more music in the future.
Great cover! I am genuinely interested in how they managed to stabilize the video. Maybe another cart?
Tom Brablec UA-cam has a stabilization option in channel video manager. So you can upload a video and make it so.
DVincentW2 Actually using the UT Tool destroys videos and this video was not distorted
you can get automatic stabilizing camcorders now for under $600, I know I have one for my channel and shoot stable video every day.
hell I chase ducks around in the swamp and it's perfect video
this is an excellent one take no experience video
Tom Brablec We had the camera on a tripod sitting inside a shopping cart :)
RIP. :'( You'll be forever in my Canadian heart/.
i was just trying to google the closing time for target but this is so much better
Sad day for many employees...but fantastic cover ...and appros pos.....Good luck in the job market guys !!!
I listen to this every year. 😭
This should be the last song played when a store closes for the last time.
Our brothers to the North have such great taste in music!
I Was from the target St-Jérome (Québec) and your song made my day 👌
this makes me so happy
Whoa??!! Is this the same Evan Holbein who was at Best Buy Uptown? Ouch! Zero for two bud. Well you can go back to BB at Uptown. Best of luck though in your next endeavor.
Sal Es Nice drumming!
They should do more they're actually good!
Great video! Really talented guys.
Man it sucks they closed. I work at a target in pinellas county, Fl. They closed some florida stores that where not making money. I hope that never happens to my target.
Great song, great song.
Dude, he can sing REALLY well!
How the percussion echoes against the distant walls!
absolute legends
Wow, first 400 club; this video's gonna go viral!
It's already at 322 000 views on facebook
Yeah, realized that after I posted :(
those 2 pulling the cart were the trees in grade school skits
nicely done, boys.
Great job, guys!
Good work guys!
Wow this song sounds good. Nice job with the song guys.
Awesome!
:( I'm going to miss all the awesome Beaver Canoe merch they were selling there. The Beaver Canoe home furnishings were amazing. I hope with the resurgence of the popularity of the brand, Beaver Canoe finds another store to sell their merchandise in. Maybe Hundson's Bay?
Awesome job guys!
Loool i walked through a target when entering the mall once nice decor
everyone at our Target in Brandon,Florida United States has seen. Your awesome...and sorry you guys lost your stores :(
you are good singer McDonald...wished Target is open forever.....too bad in my country doesnt have target
Awesome - well done guys. You need a manager and a tour!
amazing.
Fixtures for sale?! Dayummm!!1 I could use myself some ceiling tiles and lights!!
It made me cry..
excellent performance !
All I could think this whole video is I hope they are using ad-sense or whatever and getting paid for ads because ethos is going to be viral fast and these guys deserve it! I hope they find new jobs fast! Maybe a youtube career is in their future? Good Luck guys and thanks for the teary eyed smile!
Why am i watching this for the first time in 2019😎😎😎
Nice work!
good for you gents...best of luck finding new work
I seldom shopped at Target but the stores were cleaner and better maintained then Zellers and Walmart. Target rushed into the Canadian market and expanded too rapidly. I loved the video though!
Very Cool!
this is awesome video but very sad.......... hope you guys get a great job very quickly!
This is fantastic lol great voice btw!
this was in nanaimo right. i saw this right away i worked at the campbell river one
Sad to see this Target go but, can I take HIM home? The singer...? He was cute! XD
Ok, sorry... I'll stop...
Bravo ! Nice job guys....humor heals all wounds eh? Gotta love these greedy corporations. Bring back the mom n pop stores! Target/Walmart..insert name here...all evil but when all else fails start up a band!
nice job it turned out good only been to target once but was sad to see it go
This is awesome:). Sad to see them go :(
great cover
awwwww I miss Target Canada!!!!!
As a former Target employee, I know they frown on Team Members riding on flats. I got written up for it once (as well as once for riding a pallet jack). Sorry to see you guys out of work though. Good luck on your job search.
i love it
This cover sounds strangely happy despite it being the store closing down
They didn't have to deal with all the hipster instagram/tumblr/vlogger vocal fry speaking wanna be girls filming and asking stupid questions anymore lol
Creative!
Every target team member right now: "Push don't Pull!"
They are taking you to the compactor run you fools.
Cool!
im doing this on the last day at my kmart
This is great :D
