Ill never forget seeing this on Conan in June '94, I went out and bought the 5 Days album the very next day. That album had more influence on my musical tastes than any other I've ever listened to.
No doubt they would've wanted more fame and recognition back in their younger days but they seem more than happy and comfortable with how their career turned out over the years.
Y'all have said it! I think the song found its perfect expression that night on Conan! And you can tell Conan knew it...now what did Gregg say to him that made him reply "yeah, I'm a freak...? .
One of my favs too. Awesome band. Never could understand why they didn’t blow up in the US. I always thought it would happen when a US country legend covered one of their tunes. “It hasn’t happened yet” and “Bad Timing” would be ironically appropriate. :) Ontario’s greatest contribution to the international music scene has always been solo acts more so than bands - Neil Young, Gordon Lightfoot, Paul Anka, Shania Twain, Drake… but for bands I think Blue Rodeo must sit alongside the Hip near the top, but certainly behind The Band and Rush who both crushed it internationally.
Terrific live performance. These guys are so tight and their shared vocals in this song really complement each others style. A trademark song of Blue Rodeo.
Love Love Blue Rodeo brings back back great memories with my sister who passed away in 2009 to cancer this is for her up in heaven as she loved Blue Rodeo! Miss you everyday know you are at peace ❤❤❤💋💋
So inspiring. You have a lead singer putting passion into singing back up, the lap steel guitar (?) guy and bass player so non-assuming but ripping it, drummer with his Canadian gear, zero fashion to say the least....yet it's an amazing song played so sharp and balanced. They BRING IT!
Iconic song, iconic band. etched in our audiophile brains as the best bit of Canadiana music and talent for all to celebrate, enjoy and be proud of the gift of the best musical composition coming out of the east coast.
You don't know what's up till you have sparked a fatty at an outdoor Blue Rodeo concert the moment they sing... it's kinda like those sunsets that leave you feeling so stooooned. Amazing 😊
Always liked their stuff when I heard them on the radio, stumbled upon a live performance, couldn't believe how much better they are live, now i love everything about the band. Keelor's solo record "Aphrodite Rose" is the coolest record ever...
I re-visit this performance on the regular. It's so so good. The giant palm slide on the organ, Gregg's leg kick in the bridge section, that vintage Gibson mandolin, Baz playing through a monster bass amp, Glenn with the build up going into Gregg's leg kick and Kim's sliding - it's all there AND probably one of my all time favorite songs ever.
Wow!! I have loved this band since 5 Days in July came out, one of my top 10 all time albums...but until now I have never seen a recording of them performing live from back in the day. I used to always think JC was the star of the band, but I came to realize that GK's darker and moodier songs and performances really had more of an impact on me. Still listen to 5 Days in July on a regular basis...it is a real mood lifter.
This was his and his wife's favorite song & after he was gone we all sat down & listened to it & it 's amazing how this song is pretty much exactly what happened to him. Since that day I've probably listened to this song about at least 300 times. Great song
I found this band by watching the Netflix documentary “Fear of 13” the true story of Nick Yarris. I’m so glad they played this song on the documentary. What a great song!
Absolutely! Seen 'em in Ottawa three times, in Cornwall and Simcoe, as well as having caught the Jim Cuddy Band in a really small venue. Every show was intimate and brilliantly performed!
Nothing weird about great taste in music...no matter how old you are! Music is music! If it sings to you, enjoy it. If it doesn't move on and don't dis it like so many do on TH-cam. Proud of you!
Love this. Thanks John Law for sharing!! All Blue Rodeo fans....they will be doing a Benefit Concert for us for our Parkinson's Foundation on Nov 6, 2015 at the Meridian Centre in St. Catharines, Ontario. Tickets at Ticketmaster! Help us Kick Parkinson's ass!
Kool live version! Remember I saw Greg keel or on the street in Vancouver around 99 or so ... I was really excited to say hi to him , but he was like ok kid lol
Oh my god. Wow I was just watching this because it looked really rare and I love Blue Rodeo! and then WHATTTTTTTTTTTTTT this whole time they were on Late Night with Conan O'Brien?!?! I love Conan too! BEST VIDEO EVER!!!
There is a very serious argument to be made that Blue Rodeo is the best Canadian band ever. I absolutely love their music. Countless songs that are just part of who I am.
I'd give it to Personality Crisis. Maybe I just have a weakness for things that burn fast and bright. But Blue Rodeo is right up there. Five Days in July was a staple of my childhood summers. About the best lake music you could ever ask for.
![Blue Rodeo - "Hasn't Hit Me Yet" [Official Video]](/img/n.gif)
God I love Canadian music. In my humble opinion, this is an iconic performance of an iconic tune.
The world's most underappreciated band. I will always love them.
This song is a piece of Canadian cultural heritage, what a group of lads
Kim Deschamps just givin'er on the pedal steel. Beauty song and tremendously performed.
for some reason this song just strikes such a massive chord with me... every time, and it never wears on me. There's not many songs like this.
I saw them do this live at SARS in 2003. I was basically 30ft from the band. Unreal
You and me both.
Ill never forget seeing this on Conan in June '94, I went out and bought the 5 Days album the very next day. That album had more influence on my musical tastes than any other I've ever listened to.
Awesome comment ✌
This is country music that is laid back and mellow it really relaxes you after a hard days work to just kick back n relax.
Fuckin' amazing! Love my Canadian Music!! It'll be in my bones till I'm long gone!!!
So sad this band didn't get the recognition it so deserved! Hail, Hail Blue Rodeo! Most definitely a hard act to follow!
@fushapanther Which is exactly the way we like it! They are iconic up here in the great white north!!
No doubt they would've wanted more fame and recognition back in their younger days but they seem more than happy and comfortable with how their career turned out over the years.

@@rabby-u “You’re a lot taller”
@@Jamie-1985 good show, thanks
We mighta lost Gord, and the Hip will never be again, but We always got Blue Rodeo. Canada was always underrated but we own the world.
Shh don't say it too loud we are undercover
Went to see these guys a few weeks ago in Toronto and was the best concert I been to! Thanks guys for such legendary music!
Love this performance. I come back several times a year to rewatch.
They are so F-ing good.
In the summer of 92 in Pittsburgh, I fell in love with a girl and them. I miss them both so much. Really appreciate this song more as I get older.
Best band that ever came out of Ontario. So proud of these guys.
One of my favs too. Awesome band. Never could understand why they didn’t blow up in the US. I always thought it would happen when a US country legend covered one of their tunes. “It hasn’t happened yet” and “Bad Timing” would be ironically appropriate. :)

Tragically Hip?
@@ToasterBossThey kind of suck.
@@07foxmulder no way…..ever listened to three pistols? It oughta change your mind..
What a song. What a band. Glenn Milchem absolutely kicks this song in butt! Tremendous groove.
Christopher Smith Oh Canada!!!!!!!
Agree very much!! An awesome performance by Glenn!!!
This performance is truly outstanding...gives me chills every time I watch it....
This is an absolute stunning masterpiece of beauty, emotion, soul, love 🌲🍁💜🍁🌲
Terrific live performance. These guys are so tight and their shared vocals in this song really complement each others style. A trademark song of Blue Rodeo.
A stunningly exceptional performance of an equally exceptional song.
Incredible how good of a live performance this is.
I wish I had a large enough font to adequately express "YES!!!" for this band and song.
what a great sound and talent from Canada
Such chorus combine can’t ask for any better
Most beloved song by most beloved Canadian band. An audience-singalong favorite at Blue Rodeo concerts.
Does any Canadian not sing along when Blue Rodeo comes on the car radio?
Love Love Blue Rodeo brings back back great memories with my sister who passed away in 2009 to cancer this is for her up in heaven as she loved Blue Rodeo! Miss you everyday know you are at peace ❤❤❤💋💋
THANK GOD I Grew Up On The Canadian Border.......Great Music By GREAT CANADIAN BANDS......
+Dean Powers ....love this!! We do have some great bands!
These guys always deliver a good performance. I'd see them play again and again. Never get tired of their brand of music.
So inspiring. You have a lead singer putting passion into singing back up, the lap steel guitar (?) guy and bass player so non-assuming but ripping it, drummer with his Canadian gear, zero fashion to say the least....yet it's an amazing song played so sharp and balanced. They BRING IT!
Awesome comment!!!
Zero fashion? Isn't a t-shirt "fashionable" anymore? Hahaha
@@paulmcconkey637 sure, when they fit :)
Blue Rodeo is the best! Even after all these years Jim and Greg are still dynamic together!
Damn, what a GREAT version of this song. Maybe the best I've heard!
Probably the best version out there!!!!
With the Skydiggers is off the charts
I agree! I've seen them about 50 times in my life and it never gets old. hehe!
This is timeless and the song's beauty and this awesome performance just warms my heart.
Iconic song, iconic band. etched in our audiophile brains as the best bit of Canadiana music and talent for all to celebrate, enjoy and be proud of the gift of the best musical composition coming out of the east coast.
That Gibson jumbo is amazing.
You don't know what's up till you have sparked a fatty at an outdoor Blue Rodeo concert the moment they sing... it's kinda like those sunsets that leave you feeling so stooooned. Amazing 😊
Love your music listen at night when I’m in bed love it
As great as Blue Rodeo performed, which they were amazing. The video editor did a fantastic job on this. Amazing for all involved.
great music,proud too be Canadian.2021
Always liked their stuff when I heard them on the radio, stumbled upon a live performance, couldn't believe how much better they are live, now i love everything about the band. Keelor's solo record "Aphrodite Rose" is the coolest record ever...
Never tire of listening to “Blue Rodeo” love “GK””
I simply just can't get enough of this song, studio version, live version anywhere anytime...it consumes me.
This live version is great ! 2 thumbs up from me.
Saw these guys way back before they became popular. So glad to see they are still around. One of Canada's best!
I can place myself exactly where I was when I first heard this beauty! Miss ya Careleton crew 93 Russel House!
Carleton
I saw these guys once and Great Big Sea was opening for them. All I can say that it was one of the best concerts I have ever been to!
I re-visit this performance on the regular. It's so so good. The giant palm slide on the organ, Gregg's leg kick in the bridge section, that vintage Gibson mandolin, Baz playing through a monster bass amp, Glenn with the build up going into Gregg's leg kick and Kim's sliding - it's all there AND probably one of my all time favorite songs ever.

Every time I saw this band live it was magic.
Still love this tune 12/21
This song really shows how their voices come together each other and make the band's 'sound'! Compliments to the band as well of course!
Amazing performance
Awesome group, Love them👍🙏
I don't know why, but somehow, out of the vast library of Blue Rodeo phenomenally gut gripping songs, this is my favourite.
Fucking unbelievable...so beautiful...made a grown man cry!!!
This was his and his wife's favorite song & after he was gone we all sat down & listened to it & it 's amazing how this song is pretty much exactly what happened to him. Since that day I've probably listened to this song about at least 300 times. Great song
I found this band by watching the Netflix documentary “Fear of 13” the true story of Nick Yarris. I’m so glad they played this song on the documentary. What a great song!
Brilliant.The song is a BENCHMARK.
These guys rock, even when their music is on the mellow side. Great stuff!
This song speaks volumes. I'm thinking just about everyone can relate to it .
I am thankful that at 66 I live near the Canadian border so I can be exposed to so much great music.
Thanks for this song. These guys were meant to sing along together. Hope their egos don't separate them along the way.
Totally Awesome Band.
Such a GREAT tune! Blue Rodeo rocks! :)
Yes, an excellent Canadian band! I just saw a month ago, I am a FAN!
saw them a bunch of times each summer at Bourbon Street North of Montreal. Always a great show
If you ever get a chance catch these guys LIVE! they are fucking awesome!!
Added this vid to my favorites. This band is incredible. I'm glad I've been able to see them live and hopefully will again.
Absolutely! Seen 'em in Ottawa three times, in Cornwall and Simcoe, as well as having caught the Jim Cuddy Band in a really small venue. Every show was intimate and brilliantly performed!
Good job boys! Canadiana at its finest! 🇨🇦
Nothing weird about great taste in music...no matter how old you are! Music is music! If it sings to you, enjoy it. If it doesn't move on and don't dis it like so many do on TH-cam. Proud of you!
Just love the entire band, so good! Exceptional talent songs from life and well written emotion that is raw
Saw this live at Bluesfest was amazing
As did I. They were incredible. I was lucky enough to be 10 feet from Jim.
I was there too. And then I saw them again at the NAC in February!
I love this song. They look so young too.
Love this. Thanks John Law for sharing!! All Blue Rodeo fans....they will be doing a Benefit Concert for us for our Parkinson's Foundation on Nov 6, 2015 at the Meridian Centre in St. Catharines, Ontario. Tickets at Ticketmaster! Help us Kick Parkinson's ass!
Props to the uploader. Can't believe I hadn't seen this before! Killer!
This song is a masterpiece!
Always had so much fun at their shows. Love these guys.

Thank you for uploading this - very nice transfer.
truly and awesome band and song
Just a totally wicked song...
Best song of their's.
This song always makes me homesick for Ontario. :-(
Saw these Gents last night in Banff.
They continue to get better and better with age.
Never tire of this song
Good see Hendrix came back as a steel guitar guy!
AWESOME AND THAT LAPSTEEL FANTASTIC
Love my friends. Vanessa youre def one of the very best. Thanx for the share.😊
There is a very serious argument to be made that Blue Rodeo is the best Canadian band ever. I absolutely love their music. Countless songs that are just part of who I am.
Blue radio or tragically hip... but 90% of the band was Canadian and the band was one influential bands ever... blue rodeo would agree
I'd give it to Personality Crisis. Maybe I just have a weakness for things that burn fast and bright. But Blue Rodeo is right up there. Five Days in July was a staple of my childhood summers. About the best lake music you could ever ask for.
they all are Brilliant!!!!!!!!! ********************* full of rhythm
Fabulous band. Love these guys.
beautiful mandolin
Who on earth is playing lapsteel?!
Incredible
kim deschamps
Pedal steel, to be exact, but yes, he's good!
@@glenfenderman And with no picks either!
@@littlechicago7482 I didn't even notice that. Good eye!
He's a great guy too. Left Blue Rodeo in 2000, but he's still making a living as a musician in and around Austin and Montreal now I believe.
Song track of my life
Sometimes you forget what kind of a great these guys really were.
And still are.
This is awesome! I think this is better then the original recording!!
Jim Cuddy just so effing hot
