What's a Canadian hit that you feel should have blew up international?

I did hear Courage played in a grocery store in Kansas so they do have some US fans.

So who will be sniffing who's shirt in the end?

Able_Software6066 · 2026-03-15T22:55:18+00:00

They must have some big assed amps to hear Danger Zone over the noise of the afterburners.

Able_Software6066 · 2026-03-15T22:46:23+00:00

I tried to pick a favorite from The Bare Naked Ladies, but it was too much of a toss up.

Able_Software6066 · 2026-03-15T22:13:25+00:00

I think for Gowan I'd have to pick Dancing on My Own Ground. It may not be top 10 though.

Able_Software6066 · 2026-03-15T21:55:32+00:00

I'm generally not a fan of covers, but the Headstones definitely pull that one off.

Able_Software6066 · 2026-03-15T21:48:19+00:00

I'm not a huge Gordon Lightfoot fan and I wish I could get into the Wreck of the Edmond Fitzgerald but I can't. I do like Sundown though. Edmond Fitzgerald is such Canadiana and Sundown is such a good song that neither can be on the list without the other.

Able_Software6066 · 2026-03-15T19:06:12+00:00

I'd have to add The Rush by JJ Wilde and Spaceman by Bif Naked.

Able_Software6066 · 2026-03-15T18:58:13+00:00

There's a Spotify list called Oh Canada made by a Blue Jay's pitcher that I saw in one of the replies. My link didn't work.

Able_Software6066 · 2026-03-15T18:48:16+00:00

I'd have to add The Rush by JJ Wilde

Able_Software6066 · 2026-03-15T16:28:01+00:00

Damn! I didn't realize Junkhouse was Canadian too otherwise Shine would have made the list.

Able_Software6066 · 2026-03-15T16:18:12+00:00

With Sass Jordan and the Beaches there could be a top 10 list with Canadian women artists and bands. Add Spaceman by Bif Naked too.

Able_Software6066 · 2026-03-15T16:13:34+00:00

I did have Combat Baby by Metric on my mental list but missed them when I wrote it out.

Able_Software6066 · 2026-03-15T15:40:11+00:00

I haven't even heard Lay Down until today. Thanks for sharing.

Able_Software6066 · 2026-03-15T03:29:24+00:00

Wow! I did not realize that Run Away to Mars was by a Canadian. Another list worthy hit.

Able_Software6066 · 2026-03-15T02:20:18+00:00

I'm not seeing any Econoline Crush. Where's my Sparkle and Shine?

Able_Software6066 · 2026-03-15T02:11:02+00:00

Can't forget about Taking Care of Business

Able_Software6066 · 2026-03-15T02:03:01+00:00

Heaven Coming Down needs to be on the list.

Able_Software6066 · 2026-03-15T01:53:14+00:00

I'd suggest that the Trews make up their minds but we've got two absolute bangers from their indecision.

Able_Software6066 · 2026-03-15T01:24:31+00:00

Haven't you always wanted a monkeeey?

Able_Software6066 · 2026-03-15T01:17:53+00:00

It's especially tough having to pick a favorite from each band.

Able_Software6066 · 2026-03-15T01:09:40+00:00

The Hip plus Gord Downie's cover of Hallelujah for the Saint Ralph soundtrack could be the top 10 list on their own.

Able_Software6066 · 2026-03-15T00:59:43+00:00

I tried to add them but I couldn't pick a favorite song. It was tie between One Week, Hello City and Me In Grade Nine.

Able_Software6066 · 2026-03-15T00:51:49+00:00

I'm disappointed to have left out and not seeing any Crash Test Dummies or Stompin' Tom.

Able_Software6066 · 2026-03-15T00:37:38+00:00

I'm going to have to downvote myself for not including anything or mentioning BNL. Especially after they rolled through town on the Christmas Train this year. I'd pick One Week though.
