It's never had timing if It's meant to be. Not kitchy. Just true.

The song of my childhood & cottage, the best song in all of the land, in all of the 7 kingdoms

So my mom died last month and today I was thinking it hasn't hit me yet. I just pulled up this video. I had no idea the music video was about death. I'll never be able to listen to this again without losing my breath.

Gunless sent me

Absolutely love this song, but when they did this with Devon, Jim’s son, it took it right over the top!! ❤️ love Blue Rodeo!!

So you clowns got your wish...I guess Blackface has granted all your dreams!

Lyrics: Hey, it's me, what a big surprise Calling you up from a restaurant 'round the bend Just got in from way up North I'm achin' and tired now, and I could use a friend I might be a fool To think that you do wanna see me again I know it's been a while since I talk to you Nothing wrong, just nothing ever goes as planned Many times I thought I'd call But didn't have your number in my hand I know it's true You'd never do the same thing to me I never meant to make you cry And though I know I shouldn't call It just reminds us of the cost of everything we've lost Bad timing, that's all And maybe soon there'll come a day When no more tears will fall We each forgive a little bit, and we both look back on it It's just bad timing, that's all Used to have so many plans Something always seemed to turn out wrong Never could catch up to you Moving on and doing all you've done Well, I don't know why Harder I try, the harder it comes I never meant to make you cry And though I know I shouldn't call It just reminds us of the cost of everything we've lost Bad timing, that's all And maybe soon there'll come a day When no more tears will fall We each forgive a little bit, and we both look back on it It's just bad timing, that's all We each forgive a little bit, and we both look back on it It's just bad timing, that's all

I have never understood why no mainstream Country artist ever covered this exceptional song.😢😢

Visiting this again and damn…

I love Blue Rodeo. Happy 🇨🇦day everyone!

So sad, i lost my way when she left..

Being there, for this, was incredible! Goosebumps while it was happening & goosebumps hearing this moment in time; all these years later. ❤️ Blue Rodeo is a Canadian treasure. 🇨🇦

A truly awesome Canadian gift, I am so proud to be Canuck ,luv ya guys

This song just hits me ❤So good❤

You could never know, what's coming next, if you give it all, care and take it to heart, it usually turns on you 😢... It's not easy to find that soul mate, like an illusion...

Saw them last summer in a small venue. Still amazing

I still think of my dad every time I listen to this song, he introduced me to Blue Rodeo as a kid. RIP pops❤

Try that's all I can do. Saw these guys in concert in baysville in bracebriidge Ontario

I met Jim in 94 , he's a NICE guy too!

The song really gives the nod to The Doors, doesn't it? And Greg Keelor sounds a bit like John Lennon.

This is undoubtedly one of the best songs ever written. It just grabs your soul and won't let go. I can happily sing along to this song, cry to it, or just let it flow over me as I listen quietly. It's never the same song twice (I kinda ripped off one of their lyrics there inadvertently, didn't I?)

Song has a different meaning for Cormer Gas fans but beautiful somg any day of the week 🥹

...2:38am. Whiskey on the rocks and a big blunt. Cranked.

2024?!!! ❤

I come back here about every 5 years. This song reminds me of what could have been. I miss Rebecca everyday. Wish I'd been a better man back then. I hope she's having an amazing life. Still love her.

My all time favorite. ❤️

What a great song this is.😊

I'm going to sound like just a basic wee girl from the 90s. These guys put a concert on at the old Port Elgin drive in theatre. It was rained out, but it was such a great concert. My good friend Lee Anne was a school chum with a Wiarton boy called Courtney. No word of a lie man. I stood beside these guys as it just downfallled with a lightning storm.

Lovely balanced sound, vocs...

One of my fav songs w powerful lyrics

Absafuckinglutly love these guys. Fantastic music. Personally, 5 days in July is my all time favorite of theirs. Cheers 🍻 from Nanaimo, BC Canada 🇨🇦

You could play the kazoo Greg and I’d still listen.

YES, there are "POLITICAL SUGGESTIONS" within THIS Album, of which THIS is the TITLE TRACK... But, and It's A VERY BIG BUTTT, "Americanna" and "Canadianna" both have a 'HERSTORY' [History] of THIS, if They could EVER "Be Formally Separated." NO, it"s CLEARLY, extremely "NORTH AMERICAN" and certainly featuring Superb, Stellar Musicianship TOO from Both sides of our long, shared Friendly Border. RIGHT??? ABSOLUTELY! ❤ 😂 .

I remember when I was young and stupid and used to make fun of my dad listening to this and saying this song was gay but now being older and wiser I can appreciate how beautiful this song really is. Miss you dad 😢

Wow! Just watched this for the first time!! How fun is this tune!!!😁 Jim, Greg and all members of Blue Rodeo: You’re all so amazing and talented☺️ At 63, I’m going to do my morning exercises to The Railroad from now on! I couldn’t stop dancing or playing air guitar, or that beautiful digital accordion (I competed around Ontario as a kid, playing my little Italian number. We did quite well!☺️ Got to play a quick polka with Walter Ostanek at Marineland! ❤️ Amazing!) Love your music, always! Kathleen Norman, Surrey, BC

Super underrated cover

Reminds me of my Dad...what a piece of shit....😂

Blue Rodeo is so underrated. They need more credit!

Amazing album. Check the almanac for snow
