  • Roy Payne is an icon of Canadian Country music. He was born in Trout River, Newfoundland and was raised by his grandparents. He served 12 years in the Canadian army, and was a truck driver amongst other odd jobs before making music his full-time vocation. Over the years, drawing upon life experiences, Roy wrote close to 2000 songs for various country artists as well as himself. On June 7th, 2015 Roy did a concert at the Purple Hill Country Hall in Thorndale, Ontario at which time he announced this would most likely be his last performance citing a throat problem that makes singing quite difficult. He opened the show with this famous hit song.

    This man is a NL icon and has written so many great songs i met a couple times where i was playing at the time in Square Pond Lounge he was awesome and still awesome today but like he said that public domain is a great song writer that means someone else is getting all the Royalities from his great songs and there is no one to stop the bastereds from doing this keep up the great work my friend your songs will live on forever in so many homes especially mine

    Roy's music should be on the lips of every Canadian, let alone Newfoundland. His song "I wouldn't Take a Million Dollars For A single Maple Leaf" should be a Canadian Anthem. He still sounds pretty good despite his throat problem. I hope you never have to give up Roy....

    Roy truly is a Canadian Icon, his music has more heart than anything you'll hear today........ His song................ "I wouldn't Take A Million Dollars For A Single Maple Leaf" should be Canada's national anthem.

    Damn it! He was drunk on stage. He sucked, too.
    I am a huge fan of his. This really disappoints me.
