Canada Day July first 2017!

Steal the Thunder 2017

Steal the Thunder

© 1991 Words & Music Eddie de Souza

In 1991 Eddie wrote a song for a united  Canada called “Steal the Thunder”. In 1993 "Steal the Thunder" was adopted as the theme song for the Quesnel Multicultural society and also in 1993 the Kiwanis adopted "Steal The Thunder" as one of their Canada day Celebrations songs.

 

"2017 marks Canada's 150'th birthday and I started re-recording Steal The Thunder in a lower key because I can't sing that high anymore... it's taken me 3 years to get all the new voices and I'm proud and grateful to all the singers, a huge Thank you to:

Randy Morgan - Nuu cha nulth, Vancouver Island first nations dialect.

Macky Pierce - Spanish

John Robert Goodwin, Floyd & Janet Tolman - English

Carol Sison & Myrna Castillo Entzminger - Tagalog-Philippines

Kiran Puri - Punjabi

Julie Joly Edwards & Auberte Campeau - French

Doreen Patrick - Carrier

Miyong Vanart - Korean

Dilip Mistry- helps me sing the second verse

Linda Ann Ritter helps sing the bridge and last verse.

 

Canada is the GREATEST country in the world! Everyone has brought so much to it. If we all share our knowledge with each other, stand united, we will be the strongest and richest people.

 

Steal the Thunder is a song, inviting all the people of Canada to share the Universal Language of music, to express their pride in our great country.

 

When we look at another person, let's not judge them for what’s different about them. All people have something special to bring to Canada, a truly multicultural country.

 

Special thanks to the City of Quesnel, West Fraser Timber Mills and all the mills for sponsoring our Canada Day Entertainment, The Observer, & the CRD   and all our sponsors for keeping  our Canada Day  Celebration alive!

 

If you listen close in the original 1991 version you will hear representatives from eight cultures singing in their native language. In order of

performance: Vito Nevoral—Croation, Cyril Weeratange—Srilankan, Rick Cunningham—Native Cree, Brian Pickering & Carol Adams—English, Baltez Dhillon—Punjab, Crystal Pine—French, Mikiye Chalmers—Japanese, and Enrique Sanchez—Spanish."

Shaw has promised to continue to air community access TV,   While You’re the Star!
