Over all the years, this has turned into my favorite songs The Weakerthans do.

Kind of disappointed that I've seen the video and the "real" story now...I always imagined that the person in the song was a woman and her partner had proposed to her. The title, Tournament of Hearts, being a reference to an all-women's annual curling championship. The proposal coming from "And I know you're out there waiting for an answer I can't give you".She's feeling shitty that she can't commit to her partner, she roars through the years, drifts through the months, slides through the days and is throwing hack weight/not putting herself 100% in the relationship.Just how I always saw it.Side Note: I LOVE the imagery in this song. The bar looks JUST how I imagined it! :DOne of my favourite lyrics of all time "Elvira brings the bottle, hold it up and let it bend the figures of two rinks battling an extra end" for some reason took me ages to understand that she was holding the bottle up and watching the curling THROUGH it. I know it's probably obvious, but yeah...So, any thoughts? :)

How does this not have a million views. This is one of the greatest songs ever written. I think I just realized that the majority of the world doesn't know what good music/poetry is and I got real sad.

I can never decided which of their songs is more Manitoban. This one or One Great City.

Great song, love john K. and the weakerthans, but the video fell apart, and felt over-tried in the age after the music video.... I'd rather have seen a montage of curling, rather than a "Northern Pikes-she aint pretty she just looks that way" attempt at a narrative. Love the Weakerthans, though.

When you can make a rock song about curling that sends chills down the spine of someone who's neither played nor ever been in a curling arena....... well.... you've got something pretty special there. Canadian content at it's finest!!

Anyone that grew up in hokey/curling rinks in Canada should recognize the scenery in this video. :)

I just... this is.... his lyrics are too good. The only artist that writes songs that make me laugh but still take them seriously

The weakerthans are only slightly weaker than gods.
