I have loved this song since I first heard it as the theme to Hockey Day in Canada, the first year. I love it so much, it perfectly captures our home and native land.
I've just discover this beautiful song yesterday while watching Hockey Day in Canada ! Wow ! I love it ! Kind of a celtic feel in the song. Very beautiful !!! I also love David's voice...
I remember when I first heard this, on the very first HDIC ... I have loved this song ever since, love David Francey, and am excited to see him in person when he comes for a local concert in April of this year.
Great Canadian tune by David Francey featured on CBC's Hockey Night/Day in Canada. Great Song. Another song by Francey and Dave Gunning is being featured today on Hockey Day in Canada on CBC as well Jan 18, 2014 called "A Game Goin On".

Wow! I know you're from "out East", we would say, and a million miles away from my small town, but your music speaks to me in northern BC as well. This video could have been shot here! Your music makes me feel like you must be a friend of my parents I've heard a lot about but never met :) thanks for sharing!
LOVE LOVE LOVE this song!!!

Brought back memories of Bath, Ontario in the early 70's for me. Great song!
