Chris, Lizard King and TTh-fan have all answered incorrectly. All are valid guesses, but do not quite fit the clue. I'd suggest going over the Hip's discography and taking a good hard look at each and every track listing title. Remember this song has not had any other clues (or been guessed) so far in this game. That should narrow it down by more than 50%.

You're killing me with this one, Im ready to give up. :lol:

Shane Kroeker Wrote:Sorry LK, that is also not what I was going for. Here's the clue again!

While I initially thought the picture was of an "embassy surrendering" (from "Wild Mountain Honey"), in taking a very close look at the signs it seems to indicate that the photo was taken at the tourist office fire in Srinagar a year or so ago. I'm stumped there, so my only guess is therefore:

"You see the details" hock:

If on the slim chance that it's the right answer, then there should be an honorary fake Hip song called "Wild Mountain Goose Chase".

I think I need to get up and stretch some more.

Small Town Bringdown?

That's the one! Scratch it from the list.

Epic post Chris.

You can take 38 years old, Born in the water, Boots or Hearts, Butts Wigglin, Courage, Dark Canuck, and Freak Turbulence off the list. They have been used.

Still, I can't even guess. It will probably be painfully obvious once we guess it.

OK - so here's what's left... as of this post:

That's quite the list you've got there CC! To narrow it down further, This particular song has been officially released on a studio album. That should rule out unreleased songs and rants that are in your list. Best of Luck!

I think that makes it just studio cuts.

Is the picture of the fire in Srinagar an ironic comment on terrorism and religious extremism, i.e. "Heaven is a better place today"?

btw, should we just take "Gus" off the list entirely, as it's tough to think of any pics other than a polar bear in Central Park?

I can think of some other pics for "Gus the PolArbear from Central Park

There's some Gus.
