I love Blow, I mean its such a classic song....... but musically and lyrically, its a bit of a weak track compared to the remaining.

Had to go with Dark Canuck this time. If the first half of the song was as strong as the 2nd half, it would easily earn classic status. But unfortunately it doesn't quite get there.

I agree with you on this, once Dark Canuck is gone, Blow is my next vote.

BOO to all you voting for Dark Canuck!!! "Ask can I help you? In a way that says 'I can't'" and "If from the outside there's no demand for what you do. And inside there's an army waiting for their marching orders for you" are some of my all time favourite lines from Gord. I voted 100th. Was between that and Blow, but I just love the energy of Blow, and couldn't vote it off just yet.

If you're talking about their live show from 2009-2016, then yes, I agree. But pre-2008 that song was an absolute beast. The best versions were in the 90s of course, when they would veer off into crazy, exploratory jams. But I also enjoyed some of the versions from the 2007 tour where they'd go into "Walking on the Moon" by the Police or Fleetwood Mac's "Dreams". That was good stuff.

Some of those jams were so epically long that a bathroom was more of a necessity about 3/4 of the way through!

It's fun live. But Blow is a very average song.
