What is your favorite song from a Canadian artist or band?

[Papa Deuce]

Ok, I'm old....

I am torn between Lay it on the Line, by Triumph, and Just Between You and Me, by April Wine, but I am gonna go with Lay it on the Line.

 

[DJFuzzy]

Summer of 69 by Bryan Adams

 

[Abbey Lane]

Papa.. there are some many great Canadian Bands... BTO, The Guess Who, The Hip, Steppenwolf (SP?), The Stampeders, Trooper, Great Big Sea, Kim Mitchell, Gordon Lightfoot, Five Man Electrical Band, Ronnie Hawkins (He Moved Here), The Band, Ian Tyson, Chillwack, etc.

One of my favorites but not my only one... The Guess Who - No Sugar Tonight

 

[MC Johnny Cruz]

Say It Right - Nelly Furtado

 

[Abbey Lane]

What about "American Woman" by The Guess Who?

 

[Jon Tuck]

Trooper-Raise A Little Hell

 

[WaydeWest]

Nobody mentioned Rush.

 

[B-Sharp]

Nobody mentioned Rush.

Nobody mentioned Anne Murray, either. Probably for good reason.

I couldn't pick just one song. Here are three favorites:

"Soul City" - Partland Brothers
"Don't Forget Me (When I'm Gone)" - Glass Tiger
"Life Is A Highway" - Tom Cochrane

 

[Alphabet]

Sunglasses at Night - Cory Hart.....


Seriously, anything by Rush, but if I needed to choose one - "Subdivisions".

 

[SoftJock Rick]

Anything by Shania Twain -- in fact, she doesn't even have to sing...

 

[Papa Deuce]

Nobody mentioned Rush.

I think that's NOT an oversight.

Say It Right - Nelly Furtado

And Sunglasses at Night - Corey Hart
