Now the American reactors said that Australians consider it a pseudo national anthem, if that is true I know not. But it got me to thinking what is that song in Canada? I thought of Rush, The Guess Who, Neil, Joni, Stan, The Hip and I couldn't really put my finger on a universal song that covers it all. Later that night, serendipitously a reactor reacted to Gord's Canadian Railroad Trilogy which I think is the answer but probably too complicated to be a help here. One that would be easy and that most people know would a reworking of The Hockey Song "The Good Ol' Soccer Game" but that goes back to my rant about copying and not being original. Problem is unlike this song most songs aren't conducive enough to being universally known and able to be sung. Ya gotta admit it though, most people know and like it, here's the legend on Conan's show. I love this idea. Uniquely Canadian, and easy for general fans to sing along Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spirit of the West ft. The Voyageurs We arrived in NovemberEdmonton was cold,We stayed in the barsAlong Jarring Whyte Ave.We never saw nothingBut Mexicans freeze.Kept a shine on the barWith the scarves and our toques.You'll have to excuse me,I'm not at my bestI've been gone for a weekI've been drunk since I left.These so-called Canada games willSoon be my deathI'm so sick from the WinsI need home for a rest.... TAKE ME TO QATAR I like it, but I don't know if it might be a bit too much for all the most devoted supporters. I was thinking just the slow intro, either with the original lyrics or something else, may be necessary to get the thing going properly, and then "filler" for the rest as we jump around like maniacs. Then when it dies down, someone gets the intro started again. Repeat 3,000 times. You'll have to excuse me, I'm not at my best... ...home...for...a...rest...
