Add New Review About The Artist The Reviews about Tragically Hip (page 1/1) Yes, They're From Canada | Reviewer: David Joanisse | 1/2/09 With references to small-town life in Canada sprinkled throughout their work, the Tragically Hip are as much a part of Canada as the maple leaf, the loon or the beaver. But what makes them Canadian is that they don't scream it but mention it in passing, so that the inevitable response is, "Oh, you're from Canada?" They're the best thing to come from the Great White North ever, musically, but if you aren't careful, you're liable to miss them, like the Aurora Borealis, if you aren't outside at the right time. makes me homesick | Reviewer: Patricia Johnson | 7/12/07 moved to california and whenever i hear the hip it brings back great memories when i lived a single life back there doing the concert tours....i've seen them many many times and when i return for a holiday i would make it a trip when i can see them again...best canadian band since the guess who.... das hip | Reviewer: Blair McDonald | 7/7/07 well i don't know where to begin....the hip...the boys from kingston...they have the biggest following of any canadian band to date...have ben compared with the gratefull dead in fact... what can i say..the boys freaking are amazing...if you haven't seen them live then u gotta period...been following for 17 years and seen them 9 times...will be 10 in Sept. 07...Halifax The Epitome Of Amazing! (Not Vague) | Reviewer: Lauren | 6/23/07 The Tragically Hip is the absolute best band I have ever heard. It is not even competition against the new hits of this century. I've always loved older, richer songs, but when my dad showed me their 1989 album "Up To Here" I literally fell in love with each song. I even performed "New Orleans Is Sinking" infront of a live audience which boosted my confidence. I owe a lot to The Hip, especially my inspiration to write better poems, thanks to "Poets". Each song is lyrically crafted, not just mixed together with a prayer hoping that it is a hit. Their songs are art. Their voices are articulated with such cautious recklessness. Lastly, the instruments are the echo of the band: Spectacular. I cannot believe I spent my first 15 years without them. Hip From Day One | Reviewer: Steve | 4/26/07 I came across a radio station back in the 80's that played the Hip for the first time and new from then these guys were going to be awesome. I am also amazed that they don't get the hoopla other bands get that aren't so great. The Tragically Hip will be one of those iconic groups that only grow with popularity as time goes on and note some one-hit or one-album wonder. Sideny Crosby | Reviewer: brock | 4/17/07 I think you shouldnt boo him at hes games becaues its not fair. thats bad sportmanship. pleease tell the sems to stop booing him when hes the best saint Sidney Amazing | Reviewer: kwinton | 3/28/07 the hip are amazing they should be considered the best rock band of all time Unbelievable Band | Reviewer: Todd Baker | 2/26/06 I cannot understand why hese guys aren't as big as The Rolling Stones or even The Beatles. Every album has AT LEAST 3 huge hits which I'm sure will be listened to for the next 50 years. In addition, each album is listenable from front to back, every song a good one. The hip don't look for fame, they just pump out great tracks. They are a band that will probably be more recognized after their retirement then before. If your looking for some good songs to get you started, try some of their more "commercial" hits like New Orleans is Sinking, Nautical Disastor and Bobcaygeon. After that, get Road Apples or Up To Here, and just listen to the whole thing all at once. If you do not like them after that, check the quality of your stereo. awesome canadian band | Reviewer: matt | 2/23/06 i can't believe nobody has commented on these guys! they're amazing!!! my favorite song is 50 mission cap and they're video for the darkest one with the boys haha man that shit was funny they are like arguably the best canadian band Add New Review About The Artist
