Canada Rocks!!

**~~Aemma~~** · 06-23-2009, 02:07 PM

Well we're coming up to Canada Day (July 1st) and in our honour I thought it fun to post some cool Canuckian Rock. Some bands that we Canucks grew up with are just that bands that only we know about (sadly) while others have found international fame.

Post your favourite Canadian tunes and party on with us, you hosers!

Here are some of my more obscure ones:

Some Lighthouse

My list won't only include things nobody's heard of, and these are certainly not my favourite songs--but in the Canada-only category they're fine

There was simply no great quality version of this available; the potato headed douchebag who talks before the song was the host of a depressing and horrible Canadian attempt at a latenight show.

I know a Lithuanian girl who absolutely loves Shania Twain. Balts cannot be wrong.

Aemma, thanks for this thread. I love Lighthouse, and have that One Fine Morning album on vinyl like God intended music to be recorded.

Whenever I think of Canada and music, Gordon Lightfoot always comes to mind. Neil Young recorded a few songs in his day too.
