In honour of Canada, Part Deux

Yeah, so I spelled it wrong the first time. I only hope that all of my Canadian friends (this means you, Roudi. Well, and I guess Robert. And I suppose Donovan should be considered as well) will forgive me my insensitive American spelling. As much as an Anglophile that I am, you think I would have made the connection before now.

My next muscial tribute to our neighbors to the north is this entry by the Barenaked Ladies. I fear that they have broken up now, but they gave us many fine tunes including "One Week", "Brian Wilson" and a Christmas recording of "We Three Kings" and "God Rest Ye Merry, Gentlemen" with fellow Candian Sarah McLachlan. It's a rare treat, but worth looking for. And please note the correct placement of the comma.

I can't remember where or when I first heard this song. It was briefly associated with an ill-fated relationship, but I moved along from there and found that I still enjoy this tune very much. It's a fun little video, too. Enjoy!
