kind of. - mafic Dec 30, 11:13
If sung by an American, it would just be called "Woman". Yes, a Canadian moaning about his American girl. -- nm - Mop Dec 30, 11:10 11
- I just meant, you seem to be picking songs you like, not songs about your nation. :P -- nm - Amy SuperHoop Queen Dec 30, 11:12 10
  - Trying to avoid the "songs I like" thing, but I'm guilty of it a bit. - Mop Dec 30, 11:14 8

        wow. -- nm - loosilu Dec 30, 11:33

        What about songs from your history? Or native people? I just don't get picking a bunch of modern stuff. But, I am a music librarian. -- nm - Amy SuperHoop Queen Dec 30, 11:24 2
        
        it's radio 2, I'm sure there'll be plenty of that. -- nm - mafic Dec 30, 11:32
        
        I've said it before, and I'll say it again: Anne Murray, "Snow Bird". That's from the stone age. -- nm - Mop Dec 30, 11:29
  - In this case, it is about us. -- nm - Reagen Dec 30, 11:13

- I was thinking "definitive Canadian song" myself. -- nm - Mop Dec 30, 11:10
"American Woman, stay away from me" heh. -- nm - loosilu Dec 30, 11:10 1
