theoilslick Posted August 3, 2004 Report Posted August 3, 2004 A great Canadian band that has not been noticed in the world scene. Some of their songs are one songfacts.com but I don't believe many people on this site have even heard of these guys.Great songs include: Superman's Dead 4 am One Man Army Is Anybody Home? Thief
Danielj Posted August 8, 2004 Report Posted August 8, 2004 Yeah........they have been HUGE for like 6 years
Surrealisticpillows Posted August 9, 2004 Report Posted August 9, 2004 I love Our Lady peace. I also agree with you, they never really got that big, they'v only had a few singles released. :guitar:
Eggplant Posted August 10, 2004 Report Posted August 10, 2004 I can't believe I missed this post. I love OLP. I have never figured out why they aren't more popular. Their biggest hit was "Clumsy" and "Is Anybody Home" was fairly popular. I've only seen them in concert twice as they don't get down this way much. The last time I saw them was in Birmingham, AL, and Raine said he thought it was cool that people all the way down in Alabama liked their music. I know that they are pretty popular in Canada. They seem to win a Juno award pretty regularly. Seems like I heard that they are the only major label Canadian band that has sold more albums in Canada than in the U.S.
Earth-Angel Posted September 29, 2004 Report Posted September 29, 2004 OLP are a great band, pity they never did make it big back home Life was one of the best singles along with Clumsy, Superman's Dead, is Anybody Home? and Potato girl.
MindCrime Posted September 29, 2004 Report Posted September 29, 2004 They had enough attention during the mid-late 90's, they don't still need that kind of focus, they were "Clumsy" to begin with.
Earth-Angel Posted September 30, 2004 Report Posted September 30, 2004 I think they still were/are a great band. Whatever happened to them?
Danielj Posted October 1, 2004 Report Posted October 1, 2004 They are still around sue.My guess is making a new album.
Earth-Angel Posted October 2, 2004 Report Posted October 2, 2004 That's good news, Dan! Will be nice to see how their sound has changed and matured
Eggplant Posted October 4, 2004 Report Posted October 4, 2004 They are working on a new album now. They've never gone away, just tend to fly below most everybody's radar. They put out a live album earlier this year.
Danielj Posted August 13, 2006 Report Posted August 13, 2006 I never created this before now because I guess I thoguht OLP were rather popular everywhere. Our Lady Peace are an awesome Candian band, that are pretty popular up here. They are pretty rockin; but also have some amazing acoustic and soft songs. Unfortunately, their last few albums have been poor, but I hope they will come back. With the albums 'Clumsy' and 'Happiness... is not a fish you can catch' the guitars were rockin and melodic, the vocals were dangerous. Raine (vocals) has a great voice for rock. His falsetto is amazing, and he really used it on earlier albums. These guys are one of my favorite bands from the late 90's early 00's. Great lyrics, vocals, and instruments that don;t overdo everything, which is rare for that time period. I saw these guys in May, and it was SO rockin I was singing along to lyrics I didn't know I knew. If you aren't listening to OLP you are missing out BIG TIME. Check em out. Notable songs: Superman's Dead 4 A.M. One Man Army Thief Clumsy Life Innocent Automatic Flowers Waited Where Are You
Earth-Angel Posted August 13, 2006 Report Posted August 13, 2006 OLP are a great band, really worth listening to, especially Spiritual Machines.
Eggplant Posted August 23, 2006 Report Posted August 23, 2006 "Happiness..." is by far my favorite album by them. I've been a big fan pretty much since their beginning, but their last CD was horrible.
