1997 I was working at Mr. Sub with this song always on the radio, It doesn't get more Canadian than that

I remember as a kid hearing about a news story that someone at a Mr Sub had put worms on someone’s sub. Even as a kid it didn’t make sense to me, how would someone not notice worms in their sandwich? I later learned it was sperm, not worms.

Every now and then the stars align, unicorns frolic in a field of clover, and bigfoot and the loch ness monster sit for tea . . . . AND a band achieves musical brilliance. This is one of those truly perfect songs. Such a cool chord progression and groove, great playing, great singing, AND interesting and thought-provoking lyrics.

25 years and this classic is still amazing. Hadn't seen the video in forever and was dumbfounded to find it today. Thank you for uploading it, guys. Apparently I was supposed to sit in on drums with you for a show back in late '96 - early '97. A girl from my high school asked me, I said yes, never saw or heard from her ever again, lol. Oh well, still a fan.

If you were in Vancouver in the late 90s you probably heard this on the radio at least 200 billion times. It's a bit Jane's addictionish in the vocal but pretty cool tho actually. The heroin references are pretty overt.

The spoken word outro is also different. Same lyrics and delivery, but way more prominent over the music, I think. The other mix made it sound more organic to the performance, if that makes sense. This one definitely sounds like the outro was added in post, maybe from a different recording session. I definitely prefer the Canadian mix, but that could just be familiarity.
