My daughter and her hubby met at a Barenaked Ladies concert in Toronto many moons ago. They are now married and expecting their second child : )

I love this song. I love this band! They represent a happy and optimistic time in my life. I’m embarrassed to admit this but this song makes my stomach feel like a vacuum that is being sucked in. Some people call this a heavy heart but I feel it in my stomach. It’s not pain. It’s like extraordinary numbness which pulls my spine forward in a slump. It’s as if my abdominal cavity and it’s muscle structure have collapsed due to years of wear (akin to the forum in Rome). So, like a tree that has had a wedge cut out of one side, my body falls forward onto itself. If I could go back in time to the period when this song was released and playing on the radio I would never leave. I had just graduated from law school a year or two prior to this song’s release. I fell for the cruelest bait of them all known as “optimism.” I dreamed of a glorious future. I wanted material things. I wanted prestige. I had mentally noted EVERYTHING I expected out of my life in front of me. Oddly I neglected to add “happiness” and “fulfillment” to that dreamy materialistic set of notes I scribed into my primitive brain. Everything on that mental note was realized. I was granted everything I asked for. EVERYTHING! Dioyenisis must have been my patron deity, as she had been for Silenus Midas, because she delivered to me precisely what I asked for but without any warning as to the repercussions. If my young stupid self could see me visually now she would think that she will hit jackpot. But unless she can look into my hollow empty sorrow filled heart she will never know what a wretched path I took.

Intro is Stairway To Heaven. There are good songs and there are great songs. This surpasses both, something about "Pinch Me" that stops me dead, Bathroom Session is sufuckingperb. Thanks for sharing this.

Truly the best BNL performance I've seen! Loved it! These guys are so relaxed these days. Making music for themselves as much as anyone else. Nice to see.

1 person said, "Under where?"

I'm going to guess, given the lyric changes, that it is warmer in AZ than in Canada.

cant resist a man in a pair of Birkis

i miss steve though

That drummer is a hybrid of David cross and a minion lol Amazing performance but man it’s missing someone’s harmonies

Elon before tesla

Not the same without Stevens’ harmonies

Sorry guys, Steve was your lead vocal, or at least co-lead vocal, either way, this aint the same Barenaked Ladies...sadly, not for the best
