finally someone who understands the meaning of this fantastic song !!!!!
Man..... that slide across the string at 1:49 still gives me goosebumps.
My favorite Red Rider song.
Seen Red Ryder in the 80's live with lead singer Tom Cochrane who went on as a solo artist.Also seen Tom Cochrane live 2013 in Mississauga,Ontario at an outdoor concert on a local stage at Celebration Square. He sang all of his hits including Lunatic Fringe.
Great memories. 👍
I always think of the movie "Vision Quest" as it was a prominent song on the soundtrack.
Same
@@Leon-wz1js it was also at prominent point in movie when Big sporting match up was about to happen .......gets me fired up watching that
As a young man in my 20’s I remember waking up to this song playing on my mechanical clock radio back around 1981. Seems like the station played it at that exact time every morning for several weeks. It’s a real masterpiece. A shame that the message has been forgotten. If we forget history, we are bound to re-live it. God bless you sir!
Now check out Twilight zone by golden earring
Oh yes a must
Everytime Radar Love comes on my husband says "I bet you don't know who sings this". Everytime!! Lol
Long-play version, or short? Either is good, but since MRM might not know which...
I prefer long-play, but I only appreciated the long play version after initially hearing the short.
Back in the 80s when this came out, amongst the geeks and the computer nerds I knew, this was like an anthem. We were the lunatic fringe and the perspective of the song was from the establishment that didn't understand us.
loved it because it has a bit of a pink floyd feel and sound to it.
From the movie Vision Quest, best coming of age movie of the '80s with one of the best soundtracks.
amazing steel guitar solo
Perfect song/lyrics for these present times..
This is a historical “bang your head”! Epic! Many blew speakers out with this song.
From the movie Vision Quest
Oh man, awesome movie right there!
I’ve been playing this song since it first came out. Great message! Red Rider in my humble opinion is sadly underrated. Their Neruda album has a lot of outstanding songs that should get air time.
Years ago at my gym in Burlington Ontario there was a spin class where the instructor was playing Tom Cochrane and Red Ryder songs in the class. One guy in the class was singing along at the top of his voice which annoyed the instructor a bit and he didn't know or recognize the guy. Then the guy singing explained "That's me on the recording". It was Tom Cochrane. True story.
That's awesome.
Saw them in concert....great Canadian band!!
Idk if you've ever heard of a band called RUSH!!!!
Love this song its different, was every where when it came out, had it on vinyl.
Vision Quest
Love that movie!! And I love that scene at the end!!
Great movie and soundtrack.
I SO love this song and have forever! The Third Reich, Hitler's Third Reich, pronounced rike. Fantastic Canadian band! Tom Cochrane and Red Rider! Racists and rightwing nuts are not going to ruin things this time! "Not gonna win!" It's from the early 80s and I knew it from day one when it was on the radio and I was 18! Awesome song, awesome guy/band then and now!
I remember seeing this music video on MTV back in either late-1981 or early-1982. It got steady rotation on the channel for a long time that year. The lead singer's name is Tom Cochrane. Red Ryder was a Canadian Rock band. Like you stated in the video, Tom Cochrane later recorded the song, and made a music video, for the song, "Life Is A Highway", which also got a lot of airplay on MTV as well.
Tom didn't merely record "Life is a Highway", he wrote it. All of his albums are consistently strong, and some, such as "Neruda", are genius.
That's the same guy that sings life is a highway
Cowboy Junkies 'Sweet Jane' is another excellent tune (the live version on The Tonight Show in 1989 is actually the one everybody remembers)
Another song i was goona request. This song reminds me of yr 1985. I bought the soundtrack to movie VISION QUEST. This song was on it. Matter fact whole tape was good. Had Madonnas CRAZY FOR YOU. 1985 was the best year for me. 13 yrs old and in 7th grade. I go back in a skinny minute
I grew up to this song I was 14 when it came out loved the lyrics and that steel guitar solo is fire those words really ring true in our current times,it is up to all of us to be the resistance to the evil.the good can always over ride the bad
I’ve always loved this song, it’s very Pink Floyd-ish.
When this song came out... I bought the vinyl... it's awesome
Still relevant today!
This & “I Ran” by Flock of Seagulls were MTV staples in the 80’s. I miss these songs.
Haven’t heard this in a minute. Very much like Pink Floyd... the music itself reminds me Young Lust from Floyd. But def relative song for the times.. good choice! 🖤🙂
This song has been on point for many decades. They are talking about the big business corps and their owners who are making the calls about what happens in the world. Some of us are not asleep and have been aware of what's going on most of our lives. All it takes is one major incident that doesn't seem right like missing some information or reactions that should be questioned. That's when the light bulb comes on and you see the world and the evil ones for what they are.
I grew up to this song love it still today and holds meaning to today
I heard this back in 1982 in High School. That opening guitar sound just grabbed my attention and the song had me from there!
Saw them when they played at a club I used to hang out at in North Charleston!
Great song.
Fantastic late night driving song
Put it up there with Radar Love by Golden Earring
You should check out The Fixx - pretty cool 80s band - start with Red Skies , Saved by Zero or One Thing Leads to Another
Are We Ourselves, too!
MMA fighter Dan Henderson's walk in music. That's how I first heard it. Great song. I like the Red Rider.
I haven't heard this song in a great while. I know the song, but didn't know it's title or the artist who made it. When you said it's by the same guy who did "Life is a highway" I was all manner of, "No way!" Five minutes later, "Wow! I can't believe that! I never knew!"
What's strange is, I guess I never really listened to the words, as the first time I heard this was on the 1985 movie "Vision Quest," and the suggestion was that the "lunatic fringe" was something cool. Movies usually change the order of lyrics, editing out certain parts, so the point of the lyrics can get jumbled to something completely different. To a degree the synopses of the story seemed to jive with the song: Rebellious High school-er, Wrestler, doing what he feels is right despite what his father and coach tells him what to do. Meanwhile he falls for the "bad girl" older woman, who distracts him from his goals.
This song was in the movie Vision Quest. A great inspiring movie.
A song that was written 30 years ago but applies to what is going on today is 'Praying For Time' by George Michael. It's spot on for what is happening in the world right now!
Sparks of the Tempest by Kansas is way relevant for today. You should listen to that one. The writer became a Christian 3 years after writing it.
Along somewhat similar veins, “All the World” and “No One Together “ by Kansas would also be great picks.
If you're going to go the prog rock route on this issue might as well go all in: Supper's Ready by Genesis.
Loved it for years but didn’t know what it was about. Great song.
From the album " As Far as Siam " , an A+ album from an extremely accomplished and talented band. Great choice.
I'm glad to be part of the lunatic fringe!
I have always loved this song.
Yes, used to listen to this and definitely got the message way back then.
I first heard this song in 1977... I always thought that I was the Lunatic Fringe... then a few years ago i watched a video with the lyrics and then I understood that I was not the Lunatic Fringe. So Now that I am older and wiser I realize who the Lunatic Fringe really is......
Always reminded me of a mix between Prince and Pink Floyd
Great Canadian Band Tom Cochrane is From a Great Mining Town In Northern Manitoba Thompson Manitoba Now Lives Here In The Muskokas North Of Toronto
Check out Life Is A Highway by Tom Cochrane. Lead singer for Red Rider. Top notch driving song. And so true. Sorry, see you are already a wear of it.
I don't know the name of the instrument in the beginning of the song but I read that was Bryan Adams yes Bryan Adams the singer from Canada making those noises with that guitar whatever it is
That doesn't surprise me they're both from Vancouver
It's a "steel guitar." I think MRM played one once.
Me giving this thumbs up proves that I like you and you are awesome trying to give a good message out there.
Great one! Otherworldly quality, rockin’ song.
Hold on to your headphones! GREAT SONG!
Long day...night
I love these eighties reactions you guys are awesome and. This shows Me love. Love you guys
That song came out when I was maybe 18 or 19 yrs old. Next week, I turn 56. The lyrics could NOT be more apropos to today's times.
True that. We are living with the lunatic fringe 🤦. Always liked this song tho when it came out just never thought I'd experience it 🤷
MRM you have one of best channels on CZcams! Awesome personality and as always you've got great reactions!🎸🤘😊
I had seen this band in a local bar/club when this album had just been released, they rocked the joint to it's foundations, and they where a great live band. If you liked this one, listen to White Hot from the same album...
Excellent song!!! Great choice.
Memories.Thanks my friend for sharing
so right...This was one of my jams back in the day but I actually never listened to the lyrics they are so relevant today!
Life is a highway,Tim Cochrane.
I've been wanting this album for a long time. Keep putting it off from the daily grind.
Got to get on it.
My volume cannot go loud enough for this my God I need to amplify or something.
I had the whole album back in 1983.
LOOOOOOVE this song!
I agree with the others, Twilight Zone by Golden Earring goes right along with this one.
I love the song I remember when it was new loved the meaning of it
Love Tom Cochran’s vocals. ❤️
One of my night driving songs!
Been a Red Rider fan since the 70's. Have been saying this song is perfect for today.
I always liked this song, but I never could understand the words!
💜🎶💜🎶💜🎶💜
Surprised no one has mentioned their hit White Hot. Actually I didn't know or had forgotten Lunatic Fringe was a Red Rider song. They were my first concert, opening for April Wine at the Halifax Metro Centre. And, of course April Wine opened with this...
czcams.com/video/ASCtmuhqGuc/video.html
Never saw the video...first time seeing a steel guitar used in Rock. Right on.
Meet Poco...Pink Floyd, etc.
This is from 1981. I remember it, but at the time I was a single parent working multiple jobs and didn't pay much attention to it. Thanks for the reminder.
I’ve subscribed and love your content! I wish you would revisit this episode on your channel because the lyrics in this song are so spot on with what’s going on in the corrupt government today.
STAND TALL BY BURTON CUMMINGS My song request
I think I recommended this song a while ago. Very positive song. A little confusing because it is two voices, or frames of thought, but sung by the same person. One; melancholy, depressed, the other; supportive and strong.
@JJ McCartney ZDon't forget Burton Cummings was the lead singer/songwriter for The Guess Who, so he has other (in my honest opinion, more popular) songs that "rock the house"
Today , yes .
"Life Takes A Life" by Jon Butcher Axis
love Red Rider
Listen to Light end of the tunnel / Human race by Red Rider...... a message today from back then also song,
♥️✌️
Youre in two places at once
I'm always thinking of the Vision Quest movie when I hear Lunatic Fringe.
I suggest you listen to the first RAP tune. It was by Bob Dylan. It was called, "It's Alright Mama". 1965.
It was in at least "Miami Vice" episode.
Give Neruda a try. Red Rider's 3rd album from 1983. Awesome.
I think of Miami Vice the tv show when I hear this
American idiot by Green Day should be one of those songs! Yes I’ve heard this song many times. ( lunatic fringe)
1st heard this song in vision quest movie
Movie, "HEAVY MEATAL"
Not in Heavy Metal. Not even out yet. In Vision Quest.
@@1111nolanc Boy are you ever Wrong.
@@1111nolanc Do yourself a favor, watch the movie, Heavy Metal.
I know this song from the movie Vision Quest. I even bought the soundtrack album. It has a lot of great songs on it.
I was ten or eleven when I first heard this. Flashback to my brothers chasing me out of the room. LOL
I applaud you Ty, You get it. All Patriots should put this on their play list. And blast it at antifa and others just to piss them off and.let them know, we know.
Absolutely incredible song. Also. I have been subscribed and have gotten notifications for two years. I have never gotten unsubscribed. I am also subscribed to leftists who say the same “ CZcams is unsubscribing my subscribers“ thing. I don’t agree with you on a lot of things politically, but I also trust you to not talk bullshit to your fans. It’s easy to be paranoid, but don’t do it.
I have this song on Time Life's Sounds of the Eighties 1981 compact disc. It's one of those one hit wonders that's a head scratcher. Great sound, good band, and why didn't they have more hits in the United States?
Such a good song.. sounds incredibly like a Def Leppard song lol
More like Pink Floyd
Al Rivers Def Leppard lol
I knew the song, but was blown out by how LIMP the performance in the video is. I thought the band too lackluster for the tune.
Lethal....we ok
