(2002)"Music At Work" (or "Music @ Work") is the seventh full-length
album by Canadian rock bandThe Tragically Hip . It was released in 2000 (see2000 in music ).The album's title comes from the slogan of a Toronto soft rock station, EZRock. Its use is meant to be ironic; the first line of the title track is "Everything is bleak, it's the middle of the night/you're all alone and the dummies might be right." The music video for "Music at Work" was filmed in the lobby of
Commerce Court North, part of the headquarters of the Canadian bankCIBC .Much like their previous album, "Phantom Power", it had decent sales.
After the album was released, singer
Gordon Downie released a solo album ofmusic andpoetry called "Coke Machine Glow ".Track listing
