"Little Bones" is a song by the Canadian rock band the Tragically Hip. It was released as the lead single from their second studio album, Road Apples, on which it appears as the opening track. The song was very successful in Canada, peaking at No. 11 on the RPM Singles chart.[1]
Background
The song was written in New Orleans during the recording of Road Apples. It was originally an acoustic guitar based song with music composed by bassist Gord Sinclair.[2]
The inspiration behind the song's title came from when singer and lyricist Gord Downie read The Last of the Crazy People by Timothy Findley. The book featured a cat named Little Bones, which he thought would make a good song title. Months later, during the recording of Road Apples, Downie was reminded of this when he had a conversation with a cab driver who warned him about "little bones" in chicken. This would also inspire the chorus of the song.[2]
