Watching this video throws me for such a loop. I became acquainted with Dr. Janz when he was teaching philosophy in Langley, BC. He's a gifted academic. It's hard to imagine a professional philosopher with a background in pop music--amazing guy.
This is so awesome I just don't know which order I should say this. Not only is this a great Canadian song, but also a great '80s song. Or, not only is this a great '80s song, but also a great Canadian song.
I agree. I just discussed this song with our drummer last night and will be looking at covering it. It's a brilliant song. Great arrangements and vocals.
Man, fair play. I thought I would just type I go to pieces on the search, hoping to find our who sung this song and there it was... Paul Janz!! Incredible! I have not heard this song for over 20 years!! Awesome and it was so funny to see the video again after such a long time! the song still rocks too! HA HA
I found this out while I was attending classes at Trinity Western University in Langley, BC (near Vancouver) back in 2004. He was a professor in the Theology department. Wish I would have taken the time to get to know him while I had the chance. He has since moved on to a position in London, England.
I do remember this song very well, I was necking with my first gf at the time it was on the radio... it always brings back good mems.. and thanks for posting it :)
On this song and "Flippin' to the A Side," some people are getting all caught up in these bands looking effeminate. Did these people live in the '80s? This was the way people rocked.
Hi-Paul sang with Ken&Danny Janz,JackStenekes,Vern Giesbrecht(my cousin),Herb Remple in Deliverance. They were the 70's version of Delirious- in Germany.
and I enjoyed the era of layered vocals. Clearly in that regard they borrowed from Bands like Chicago TOTO, Journey etc. Also like me they are Canadian. I didn't realize that was his brother and thanks for the upload

That's one of the best of Canadian rock.
I was a big Paul Janz fan back in the 80's
I love this song and wow does it take me back. I just came home from a challenging day at work but now I feel like dancing around the house!

Heard this song on the radio today - what a great song to CRANK UP TO 11 !!!
This is a great song. I remember seeing it on MuchMusic in the early days.

This tune needs to be covered/re-tooled big time!
He supervises a friend of mine who's working on his doctorate in theology.
Actually, the guy does sing and dance a lot like a theology professor.
Flying away, Leaving LA,
Must a man, always remember?
Paul Janz, Leaving LA
Upload it, please!
And in the category, "Where Are They Now?", check it:
Wow! I didn't know so many people loved his music! Does anybody know how to get in touch with him?
3 people went to pieces
Tune shoulda been on the GTA Vice City soundtrack : )
BTW, get your band`s cover version up.
I love Odds. Heterosexual Man is sooo true.
