Glass Tiger is a Canadian rock band formed in 1980, in Newmarket, Ontario. Originally named Tokyo, the band was able to produce two hit singles, "Don't Forget Me (When I'm Gone)" and "Someday," both of which come from their debut album, The Thin Red Line (1986), produced by Jim Vallance.
Glass Tiger won three Juno Awards in 1986 and two more in 1987. They were also nominated for a Grammy Award in 1987.
In 2005, the band released No Turning Back and is currently on tour. On June 23, 2005, they appeared on the NBC show Hit Me, Baby, One More Time, performing their classic hit "Don't Forget Me (When I'm Gone)" and covering "Everything You Want" by Vertical Horizon. Although they lost the audience voting to Thelma Houston, Glass Tiger were judged the winners by online voters.
