    Another good track by Chilliwack: Midnight

    The name Chilliwack always makes me giggle like a sixth grader.
    I dunno....it sounds like the title of an Eskimo porno.

    If you haven't already heard the Spinal Tap-esque majesty that is "Spaceship Superstar", make sure you're sitting down before you click that video link.

    Every time I hear this song (and it pops up at least once a week on Canadian oldies stations), I envision Bryan Adams listening to "Spaceship Superstar" sometime in the late 1970s and crying to the heavens, "I don't care how much of a dork it makes me look like! I must save the reputation of Canadian pop music -- by ensuring that Jim Vallance is never again allowed to write a song all by himself!"

    Jim Vallance is proud of that song and should be theres nothing wrong with it.

    Chilliwack made some great albums, including "Dreams Dreams Dreams". The city is very pretty as well.

    Thanks...now I'll have "gone gone gone" running thru my head for the next couple of days. I still like the chorus to "Don't Let Him Know", but the verse isn't quite as good as I remember from high school.
