My mom and I sang it as well, while I played guitar. She passed from leukemia in 2017. I feel you.

😢

God bless you , darling

Dude. I am a dad too. That just broke me down to tears. I'm gonna hug my girls tight today.

I am So so very sorry! I honestly cant imagine the pain of losing one of my kids and im just sorry you had to experience the worst loss i feel one can experience. I Lost my Mother and it was horrific for me. Worst time in my life! But losing one of my Children i couldnt bare it! And then to see my other 3 kids mourning their sister or brother would make it so much worse to deal with. My deepest Condolences! I know my words mean nothing and dont help. But i am truly so so Sorry!!! I hope you found some comfort in knowing he isnt Suffering anymore and hes in paradise with our Heavenly Father. God Bless you and your family.

not underrated not known like Canadian label gimme a break

​@@jonathanshaw8123They sold like 8 million albums.

Indeed, and their first two albums "The Ghosts that Haunt Me" and "God Shuffled His Feet" are essential listens for any alt-country folks out there.

Definitely underated.....what smooth deep bass voice.....great song and harmony.....

@Momcat_maggiefelinefan God bless you and your mom.

Salute momcat

@@MojoPin1983 Thanks. It’s been a long time, but I still and will always miss her. Pity she didn’t get to see her great grandkids though. They know all about her and my daughter makes sure they’re aware of what a wonderful Grandma she was! 🇨🇦🖖🏻🇨🇦

No Momcat, you're not alone with your feelings.

Truly. Thank you Canada 🇨🇦

And had a lot of "Mmmmmm, Hmmmmmm, Hmmmmmmm" lyrics.

@@mr.mediocregamer9653 Mmmmmmm.

it's true. it really is a lost art.

Music has definitely changed, and not for the better

Hero

Your dad sounds like a wonderful human being! You should be proud of him! I wish you peace in his passing.

I miss my father every day

Amen friend

So sorry for your loss. I miss my dad all the time. Thank you for his service.

Well said! Sums the song up perfectly.

Superman is a Canadian invention too and a Canadian band sings this song few will probably appreciate that either.

You just wish there was a Superman to help us.......cause we all need it.

@@clebo99 no he doesn't. your interpretation. a bad one too.

Superman is not a Canadian invention..do Canadians say that to annoy Americans? Didn't you know he stands for truth justice and the American way?

Sorry for your loss. Good friends are hard to come by these days. Best friends hardly exist. Sounds like Kevin was one of the very best.

Thanks

When I met Ellen at a show 2 years ago, I told her that she was amazing as usual. I can't complement her abilities enough, her singing, and the fact she can play over 5 instruments like a native-level language speaker.

Ellen? What is the rest of her name? Her voice was hauntingly perfect in this song.

@@scrappydude1 Ellen Reid- powerful but understated, a true Canadian heroine.😉

Her background vocals here was perfection.

Is there a name for the style of backround vocals? I dont know where but I know I have heard similar female backround vocals like in country music and perhaps elsewhere. Always like it.

not in Canada lol.

@@David_Downs Being huge in Canada only when you’re the crash test dummies is considered criminally underrated.

I only learned about this band because of a Canadian.

Not by mark. Mark

Along with Matthew Good, another underrated Canadian artist from the 90s.

I'm very sorry for your loss and her loss, Harvey. Love is eternal and he will always be her Superman. The sad and reflective tone of this song must have been very fitting at the service to honour such a wonderful father and friend.

This song is tounge-in-cheek. It is a humorous song presented as serious; Just like "God Shuffled His Feet" and "Afternoons and Coffee Spoons".

That actually made me tear up. I'm sorry for your loss :(

@@August3B this is a perfect somg for someone to describe what that person was to them. I teared up reading your post. It was coming. Comments made on this media type generally convey self interest, with little or no regard to someone with an honest, humble, insight for anothers view. Thankyou for posting. The person who played this song for the loved one was deeply in loss. Ive been here. The song was hers to connect. I feel it gav e her a tiny part in closure. It's hard to get that. Even just a little.

Everyone's Superman should be their father...mine was.

I was lucky enough to see them do a free outdoor concert, they still sound almost identical, it was beautiful 😍 truly a magical moment in time

She is just so lovely to both listen to and look at.

Canadian yep 👍❤️💯🕊️

She's just a human like anyone else dude. Incredibly talented musician and vocalist, but a person like you or I. It's bizarre the way some men treat women as if they're "otherworldly" or "mystical", it's such patronising, utterly childish and self-emasculating nonsense.

silly? no

I totally support you💖✝️

My thoughts exactly.

"imaginary numbers are real." neil de grasse tyson @imaginarilyinc

We learn.. sometimes slowly. But progress is progress

Tim Mullen agree! Love Roberts and this song but Ellen Reid's backing vocals are stellar!

I have had a crush on Ellen since I first saw this video, and 25 years later I still do...

Man, that brown-haired Ellen, with her cute turned-up nose, looks like the hot & naughty girl-next-door you wanted to bang all day and into next week ... But somehow her 7'5" Dad always stood in the way of major Saturday night mattress action. Sad but true. ;--/)

Tim McMullen, I'm pretty sure it's a bass voice, not a baritone one. Anyway I agree this voices mix and harmony is beautiful.

Mad Jack a good wake up morning spank bank memory

Exactly what this song is about ... love u dad

Most Canadian bands are!

This shit is so fucking ass you’re acc brand dead for listening and liking this horrifically bad shit

@@Baltaj720 wow what happened to you? To each their own

I'm 67 and have to listen to this nearly everyday.

@@Baltaj720 you ok babes?

I'm 50 n never heard this til today

Because it is moving, on many levels.

brilliant....

Well said

Yes, very nice indeed

iblockpuncheswithmyface wow so true :)

@pasteve59 oh I better not. I’ll bawl so hard. I’m already bawling at this

This statement means alot!!!

Was there ever a time in history when people -- not just men -- only did honorable things just "to be honorable?" Mankind has never been supremely honorable nor hideously evil to the best of our knowledge. Not today, not in the past.

@@BrandonAEnglish Enough with the cynicism already. This song is all about denouncing cynicism. George Washington could have made himself king. He didn't. He gave birth to a democracy that lasted 230+ years and counting. Compare that to Napoleon.

Then be what we need, if we all work at being our Super selves it would be amazing!

@@BrandonAEnglish All throughout history. Unfortunately there have been few of us. We seek no fame, fortune or even recognition form anyone for our deeds.

same

Absolutely

So good

Same

Yep. 100.1 FM WDST Woodstock NY.

Look up George Reeves. He’s basically the only one who can match that level.

AMEN BROTHER

@@MegaManDBZX its kind of crazy that him and Christopher reeve both shared almost the same last name and both played Superman, but have no Relation what so ever.

He was my 8th cousin.

Bruh I'm probably your 8th cousin

Yes. And if you’ve lost someone close it makes it so much deeper.

Be your own superman nobody is going to save you

We all are supermen and women.

@@josephwirtz7120 cringe 😬

We had one named Donald Trump for 4 years....

Brandie A.H we have someone better. We have God.

We're the same age, and same experience.

O wow!

@@rwaggs81 sounds about right for me too lol born in 81.

same here. but it was about 16 and i'm well into my 40's now.

I agree. Though Sherlock Holmes was given a knighthood, and Hercule Poirot had an official obituary when he was killed off in 1975.

DJ Holte This song touches the cornerstone of societal yearning. Superman represents something we all wish was real.

Fantastically put. I always felt this song had a level of profoundness but could never put into words why.

The real shame is that it should have been the closing song for BvS. It would have been touching and moving and one of the few bright spots of that movie.

@@Kate-hu5uz , perfectly stated. 😊

I'm very sorry for your loss, Tanna. You must have so many cherished memories of your time together, I hope they give you some comfort.

Tanna Johnson sorry for your loss hon❤️

My brother committed suicide too.. his name was the chris. He loved this song..

@@manifestlove888 I'm so sorry for your loss, hope your memories give you some comfort.

It's alright man. You cry it out and remember the good times. Cheers.

So have I Rydin. This also was my favorite song. I listened again today for the first time in I couldn't tell you when, and man, it just wrecked me. Such a very long time since the first time.

gut dat right youz

wow. To be truthful, if the rest of the human race understood the depth of you posting those lyrics almost nobody recognizes it. We need a society where we see the beauty in something like this song to flourish.

@@TrevorHamberger-SH1974-Marie, so cool you get it too. I feel the same way..I am not alone :)

Such a unique baritone voice!

You may want to check out Mark Lanegan

I want to know her name

@@jamesgilmore7955 Ellen Reid

❤❤❤❤❤😢😊

I mean yes but I would also put Alanis up there. JLP is hands down the best female solo album of the 90's and one of the best overall.

I hear ya. Ive seen pantera, megadeth, 311, went to the "Woodstock" in 99. Seen these guys about a yr ago.... Greatest show ever.

...George Reeves...

@@tomryan914 him too

I'm 67, always liked this band. I think his voice nails it for me.

Turn 71 tommorow just cause we are aging a bit doesn't mean we've gone deaf. At least not yet....

😊😊😊😊

Hope you're doing all right. ❤

​@@devynalit'll be five years at the end of the month since losing her. It's still not any easier. Thankfully my amazing girlfriend is gonna help me to do something special in her memory. Hopefully I'll be okay enough to do it with my girlfriend, but if it becomes overwhelming she's gonna put her arms around me and tell me everything is okay. I am sooo grateful for my girlfriend in soooo many ways.

Hang in there, life gets better. Your loved. 😊❤

Thank you so much . Isn't it strange that strangers in this odd world make you have a tiny piece of kindness. Thank you

@@helendavies4628 No problem, when I saw your comment, my heart sank into my stomach. I myself have been there and know what its like, I have had many struggles with loneliness, depression and addiction. Life can really be hard sometimes, people reached out to me and gave me encouragement, told me to keep going, things will get better if you keep going forward. Sometimes people just need to know that there is someone can hear them, someone is listening and understands and cares. Just know your not alone, your never alone and there are people in this world that care and love, maybe some you have not even met yet. I'm sure your a great person and it's totally understandable to miss your dad. Your dad's not gone, he is a part of you and you a part of him, there is a strong bond between a father and daughter that can't be broken. I guarantee he's proud of you, he loves you and he will always be close by. Don't let this world beat you down, we are living in very weird, difficult times, but your strong and you can get through this. I'm sorry for going on, I had people there to help me and ended up meeting some great people. From that moment it's always in my heart now to reach out to others that are struggling. I know I'm just a stranger on the internet, but also know I am a man who cares. Never be afraid to reach out, there are still a lot of great people out here that do care and believe in the power of love and helping others. If I can make someone's day just a little brighter, its all worth it. Never forget you are LOVED, APPRECIATED and that you MATTER, so put a big SMILE 😀 on your face and pushing forward. You may feel alone but your never truly alone. I hope you have a great and wonderful day.

You’ll be together again one day. In the meantime, live life to the fullest. Try to think of life as a journey and try not to look back too often or you’ll stumble. Look ahead and when you get to the end of your journey then look back to remember where you’ve been. Turn around again and you will see your father. 🕊❤️

Something that has been helping me is to tell myself everyday that I have to make it through the day full of grace. At the end of the day I look back and see if I succeeded. I am at about 9 out of ten, but try to remember, 90% is still an 'A'.

B Truj But most of us never came from a planet that crumbled. 😌

What year did this song come out? Do you know? I think it was 1990/1991 ? 👍

@@jamiemay6065 1991.

It's like this song kind of foreshadowed what was going to happen in that story arc it's definitely is ironic that the song came out one year before the death of Superman story arc got started

Me too!

his or hers?

Sledd Ed both!

Becky Garcia It gives me chills too. Mostly in bad ways! Just kidding

God Bless you; I Care💖✝️

I've been singing this with my daughter since she was 8yo. She's 19 now. Hope your dad is Okay!

It is. And from a video standpoint, it's amazing

And then he died in the comic's two years after. CTD seem to have the power of prediction when it comes to DC storylines.

u had to be born around that time, they forget, live in their ivory towers now

I can imagine people not liking this song. It's very dependent on the lyrics, imo and if someone can't understand what he sings because of language barrier, the song isn't gonna impress them much

Adrienne, I have that CD. Close second to Meatloaf for me.

Just bought god shuffled his feet for 50 cents at a garage sale a day or two ago

We must be close in age no tshirt just the tape

I had both of those on tape and The Eagles Hell Freezes Over and Areosmith's Get a Grip. I still have my panasonic shockwave in tact and still works. With Metallica's Metallica (CKA: The Black Album) original cassette inside. They really dont make things like they used to

"God Shuffled His Feet" is just fantastic. It has been part of my life for years and will always be, fabulous album!

Very well said, moon lee - each of us has the ability to be the change we wish to see in the world.

Well said..it's funny how many ppl. Think Superman wears a cape!

I've always stood up to those mistreated cause I known how much it hurts and give to the poor.

Start watching Smallville and you'll understand!

Superman had super powers, thats why he helped peoplw. Because he can

You were a kid when this came out & your 65 now? If that's the case, the math doesn't add up. I remember this playing on Much Music when I was a teen & I'm in my mid-40s now. Unless you're talking about scoffing at the thought of Superman dying when you were a kid. I don't know, lol, I'd love some clarity.

@@davekemp1808 I was talking about the concept of Superman. He was a comic book character. Back in the old days. Got it now?
