Music: What are your favorite Canadian songs?

[x Tame Impala]

American songs about Canada =/= Canadian songs

I don’t know if you can tell in the clip but that’s clearly an authentic Canadian singing right there so I don’t know what the issue is

 

[Jumptheshark]

Me being old

Trooper: Raise a little hell and the boys in the bright white sports car
Spirit of the west: The Crawl/An honest gamble
RUSH: Nearly everything they did
Bryan Adams: Remember
Nickelback: Photograph
The Guess Who: American Woman, No Sugar Tonight
Gordon Lightfoot: Sundown/ Wreck/If you could read my mind
Loverboy: Working for the weekend/ Lovin every minute of it
Andy Kim: Rock me Gently/How did we get this way.

Kim is underrated.

Godspeed You! Black Emperor - Sleep
Arcade Fire - Neighbourhood #3 (Power Out)
Oppression - L'amoureux
Buried Inside - Time as Surrogate Religion
Leonard Cohen - The Stranger Song
Nomeansno - The End of All Things
Do Make Say Think - A with Living
Feverfew - The Master
Home Front - Kill the Time
Intensive Care - Scopophilia

Not in any order, and didn't think too much about it. Despite not being much of a post-rock fan anymore, GY!BE could have easily been half the list for me.
