Great to hear that they're still playing this on the radio. I know I mention 103.7 the river in a lot of my comments, but that's where I first heard pursuit of happiness. I'm from New York and it is always a bummer when I talk to younger Canadian folk and they tell me they've either never heard of these guys or they simply don't care. Music like this makes me wish I was Canadian. I love this band.

Heard this great song on BBC London 94.9, Danny Baker's show, forgot what a great song it is and how we Brits love Canadians. It's summer in London and Wimbledon's on. It's beautiful and the song matches. Thanks P of H. Paully x

One of the catchiest songs I have ever heard. I can't believe too it's been 20yrs since this came out. It's amazing how fast time flies. The Pursuit Of Happiness were truly a part of the soundtrack of my life.

Man! Those girls aren't just "back up singers" they're part of the band. Musicians even. Saw them live in the late 80's. Great band and all around nice people. I had a long chat with the drummer before I even realized who he was. Just regular folks. I miss this band.

There were a lot of rock/new wave/punk/post-punk underground stuff that was played in the Philippines (on the very few rock format radio stations, at least). Some of which my friends out here (in America) have never really even heard of.

This song never got a lot of air time or credit from the music industry but I think it's terrific. It's a classic love song but somehow has a uniquely Canadian tint. As for the video, it isn't exactly a prizewinner but it's okay. Please keep it posted!

Yes, it seems like Canadian musical groups somehow don't get the rec they need... But Canadians DO excel in films and TV... But, on the other hand, "the Pursuit of Happiness" were quite popular in the US, too... This song and "I'm an Adult Now" were big hits...
