Alberta PCs: Some Party that I used to know

My friend Amanda Achtman in Alberta brought some friends together to assemble this creative video that describes the frustration of many Albertans have with the Natural Governing Party of Alberta, the Alberta Progressive Conservatives.

The song riffs on Gotye’s hit from last summer, Somebody That I Used To Know* and the video was produced by Olivier Ballou through donations from young Alberta conservatives.

Lyrics:

Now and then I think of when we were together

Like when you said you felt so happy you could try

Told myself that you were right for me

Felt progressive in your company

But that was then and after 40 years I still remember

But you didn’t have to cut me off

Make out like it never happened and that we were nothing

And I don’t even need you now

But you treat me like a stranger and that feels so rough

No you didn’t have to stoop so low

Have your friends collect your perks and then start to slumber

I guess that I don’t need that though

Now you’re just some party that I used to know

Now you’re just some party that I used to know

Now you’re just some party that I used to know
