And eventually you became top 3-retard on Metal Sludge-gossip board giving couple of established village idiots run for their money.

What a life.

A coward piece of shit loser like yourself is only good at hiding behind a keyboard trash talking others in fear of getting your ass seriously kicked in real life.

Will you hunt him down now?

Loooove that song. Entire album is great.

I also remember that song being all over the radio during those summer days in high-school right before we had any real responsibilities. Nothing to do but hang out all day. Sure brings back good memories for me.

I would put it on most every mix tape/cd, phenomenal track. One of the few HS tracks not written by Derry Grehan. They still play shows mostly in Canada, ithinkso.

Love this song!

Great song, great album!

They are still playing and making new music!

Fantastic tune. Surprised I heard it on HairNation SXM a couple of weeks back.

The Big Prize is a fantastic album s well.
Feel it Again was the first single.

Good and catchy AOR song.

That whole album, The Big Prize, was a powerhouse start to finish. It's still in my top 10 albums to this day.

Great classic Canadian AOR song. I love it. Looks like I missed OP getting the boot, though.

The latest album, Alive, is OK.
The songs are definitely HS.... but the production is really stiff. Like everything except the vocals and guitars are programmed.

This single was released in 2020... was their first charting song (#23 Canadian Rock) in over 25 years.
Album was supposed to come out in mid-2020, but their label at the time shut down, and the producer moved to Europe right as the pandemic began.
Frontiers picked up the album, and they re-recorded two of their earlier hits in that stiff production style.

After I posted, unbeknownst to me, they just released the first single from the next record.
They say it's coming out "this summer". I hope they're right.

This song still gets a lot of radio play here in Canada. The best song from this album is Wounded.

Have this on a few of my playlists. For a 2025 HS song, it's really strong

Great great album top to bottom. The followup with Ted Templeman was a bit of a let down, not bad but definitely not as good, I feel like that was their shot and swung and missed. Since then they've put out several albums, all with several great tracks.

Solid guitar player, he almost give them a bit of a metal feel . Great riffs and solos .

Agreed, Racing After Midnight was a pretty big drop off from The Big Prize. It wasn't a bad album, but it was definitely a step backwards. Too bad, because they could have been huge had that 3rd album taken off.
