    One of my all-time favourite songs:

    Fly at Night - Chilliwack

    Four men in a rock 'n roll band
    Fly at night in the morning we land
    Fly at night 'til we're satisfied
    See the morning from the otherside

    And when you close your eyes
    Sleep comes fast
    When you fly the universe
    Well, you need some rest
    Yeah, you need some rest

    Ooh, we like the big wide spaces
    Yeah, we like a sea of faces
    Time is just a rubber band
    Time is at our command

    And when we look out
    And see you there
    You seem much closer
    And you feel so near
    Yeah, you feel so near

    Well we fly by night, it's like a rocket flight
    And baby that's just what it's for
    Yeah, we fly by night, it makes you feel alright
    It keeps you coming back for more

    Well we fly by night, it's like a rocket flight
    And baby that's just what it's for
    We fly by night, it makes you feel alright
    It keeps you coming back for more

    Four men in a rock 'n roll band
    Fly at night in the morning we land
    Fly at night 'til we're satisfied
    See the morning from the other side

    You know what doesn't rule - their horrible and failed attempt at doing a The End-type song - it's embarrassingly bad.





    "The End" is kind of embarassingly bad itself.

    Ride the snake, ride the snake
    To the lake, the ancient lake, baby
    The snake is long: seven miles!
    Ride the snake... he's old, and his skin is cold

    One of my favorite tunes. The Killer awoke at dawn. He put his boots on. Unfadeable.

    You're entitled to indulge your poor taste, but the song is eminently fadable.

    Tell me--does this one also shut the clurb down for you?

    Still waiting to for visual evidence of Daniel's non-little dude status, plaese to post photographs of yourself outside your crib after 10pm much less in the 'clurb'.

    This is what I imagine he rides for when sipping Cristal on white leather in white linen (or vice versa) in his private puffy-fab mind garden.

    I have a 45 called 'Hey Ho What You Do To Me'/'Goodnight Goodnight' on Scepter that I play out at gigs, I used to have one by Chad Allen & The Expressions too that was good, but I haven't seen that in my box for ages & don't even remember what it was called

    My dad used to refer to that song as "Toad in the Road".

    All I'm going to contribute to this thread is my great and continuing frustration that Randy Bachman uses his CBC programme to showcase what is usually exceedingly tepid MOR, oldies, and his lame-o stories about BTO. Couldn't he do a Ben McPeek episode? Or maybe dig a little deeper into Canadiana? How many Beatles' covers and novelty song shows do we need?

    burton cummings lives in Hamilton right now I think, and my dad has been trying to get him to sell some of his guitars.

    my dad is crazy...

    The Guess Who later came on a stunk the place up with a horrible psychedelic light show and bad mustaches.

    Was Burton Cummings singing lead?

    (While we're repping Guess Who, I may as well add that I kinda like "Stand Tall," Cummings' mid-seventies solo hit.)

    It was Burton who was the most guilty of cheesy stachness. Burton kept telling stupid stories about playing in coffee houses. I did learn that Bachman is pronounced Back-man. So it wasn't a total loss.

    i like the doors (esp soft parade), but i LOVE the FB3 (terry, neville, and lynval from the specials)...
    this version made my summer magical... anybody ride for this twist???
    they burn a US flag at the end... never seen the guess who do that (see "american woman")...

  • "Undun" is a good tune.
