"Beverley Street" was originally intended for Diamond Mine, but the band had forgotten about it long ago. They relearned of its existence only in 2004, thanks to some friends who had bootlegged a concert featuring this song and performed their own version for bassist
Bazil Donovan.[3] The song itself references
Beverley Street in Toronto, a north-south street that starts at
Queen Street West and extends north to
College Street, where it turns into St. George Street.
The "
Finger Lakes" referred to in the song are a group of 11 long, narrow lakes in upstate
New York. Jim Cuddy has often said at concerts that the song is at least partially based on his relationship with his father.
