Idle No More (Music by Amelia Curran - In a Town)
Idle No More is an ongoing protest movement originating among the Aboriginal peoples in Canada comprising the First Nations, Metis and Inuit peoples and their non-Aboriginal supporters in Canada, and to a lesser extent, internationally. It has consisted of a number of political actions worldwide, inspired in part by the hunger strike of Attawapiskat Chief Theresa Spence and further coordinated via social media. A reaction to alleged abuses of indigenous treaty rights by the current federal government, the movement takes particular issue with the recent omnibus bill Bill C-45.
Amelia Curran is a Canadian singer-songwriter. She was born in St. John's, Newfoundland and Labrador and currently lives in Halifax, Nova Scotia. The National Post describes her music as "a bit like Leonard Cohen being channeled in a dusty saloon by Patsy Cline." Curran started playing guitar and writing songs as a teenager and eventually dropped out of university in order to busk on the streets of St. John's. That led to her first album release in 2000, and since then she has released four more.
Her 2006 release, War Brides, was initially released independently and was later given a European and national Canadian release by Six Shooter Records. She describes her signing to Six Shooter Records as a "promotion" and goes on to say "I have a lot more work to do, more often, as a result of which I will make some more money and sell some more records. But it is the same job that I have been doing for ten years."
War Brides was nominated for two East Coast Music Awards: Folk Recording of the Year and Female Solo Recording of the Year.
In 2009, Curran released Hunter, Hunter. She describes this album as "a little tougher than War Brides but it's still minimal". She explains that the title is "Hunter Hunter as opposed to hunter-gatherer." This is the first album that she recorded in her home-town of St. John's.
Curran's lyrics have been described as "evocative" by Spinner Canada who, referring to Curran's song "The Mistress", wrote that "Like the best poets, Curran packs so much meaning into each line that the listener barely has time to register each clever lyric before the next zinger comes along."
Hunter Hunter earned Curran four nominations at the 2010 East Coast Music Awards; Female Solo Recording of the Year, FACTOR Recording of the Year, SOCAN Songwriter of the Year and Folk Recording of the Year. In addition to being a musician, Curran is also a playwright and actor, and has had her plays performed in fringe festivals.
On April 17, 2010, Curran won a Juno Award in the category of Roots and Traditional Album of the Year: Solo. Curran also won first prize (Folk category) of the prestigious 15th Annual USA Songwriting Competition.

Love this song and singer.
I was a divorced part time single Dad when this song hit. It killed me but I loved it.
This is one of the greatest songs of all times with its lyrics and arrangement,, even though it's so sad...
We just found out my uncle just bought "Kacey's" old horse trailer!
Man is always Better off without the BITCH!
what a song!
For everything you win there’s something lost.
My band had the honor of opening for Dan for two shows in Eureka and Redding California. He was the nicest man I got to sit and talk to him for about after sound check. I’ll never forget him.
This song goes to all men who always look at the beauty of a lady instead of looking in the inner part 😅😅😅
My mom left my dad when we were 2 and 4 years old.. She raised us on her on working double shifts... She did a good job.. Our dad never was there..
I could have sworn this was Vince gill, but I was wrong they have similar high note sounds
Love this song and Dan Seals.
Bawling my eyes out in 2024, sent to my dad. Always loved this song and going through some feelings when I looked it up today. 😭❤️
My mom gave up her Rodeo dreams when I was born she was rank 2nd in the circuit in 75
Wow this doesn't look like social engineering bs at all... 🤮🙄
Amen that song life
The most mournful song I ever heard,.
So pure. <3
Hello Rick, Love'ya man , all will be good when you meet Jesus!
I know this song for years, however I cannot sing it without crying. It just brings back sad memories of the earlier life I had decades ago that resembles the lyrics of this song. However I still hold on to the hope that someday I can sing it without any grief.
One of the most poignant and relevant songs of our time!! How very cleverly written!
I could never even imagine leaving my children. Luckily, I married a woman who feels the same.
This song hits so much harder when you're a single dad raising a little girl
This is so hard to hear, now that my dad is gone. When my parents split, I went with my dad. Growing up I felt like my mom left the both of us. My dad was my best friend. Always there for me.
Thanks for posting this Masterpiece!
God bless your dad
My wife took a job in the city 3 hrs away. She lived down there all week and came home for the weekend. I took care of our two boys and worked a 40 hour per week job. She eventually met someone else down there and quit coming home on weekends. I made excuses for her to the boys. They don't know the heart break I still feel. But they've grown up and are two fine men. Miss you Dan. The world was a better place with you in it.
Love it too
Love it too

Love this song beautiful one of my favourite❤️🙏🦋
My Favorite song ever By England Dan Seals! Can hardly listen to it to this day without it bringing a tear to my eyes.
Well hell that didn't play all the way through!
All you single fathers raising your beloved children alone understand this; there will never be a bigger or better example in your childrens' lives of a stand up, loving and caring person than you. How you loved them enough to bust your behind to keep them safe and happy will always be deeply remembered. Not just in their hearts but in their souls. Your imprint on those hearts and souls will make our country and world better by what you so selflessly did. The word "hero" is thrown around a lot now days but you, single dads, are the true heros in our midst. May G.od in heaven bless you and your children now and in the life beyond.
AMEN, thank you.
Ride little Bently McBride MY primrose love your tough lo in tulip
God bless you, stay strong
Your dad sounds like a hell of a man
