Re: Post a song you like or love.

^ ^ ^ Catchy tune by Mullen, Jr. & buds.

Cover song thread led me to these:

1. Shawn Colvin (feat. David Crosby).


2. Lizz Wright.


3. Billy Corgan (feat. Robert Smith).

Re: Post a song you like or love.

Here's another one for dipper, what with the religiosity and all. It's one of my favourite ballads, "Amazon Rain", by '80s Canadian balladeer Paul Janz. It's a gorgeous tune, but if you're not into soft rock, don't bother listening.

Stumble this on Youtube and pretty hypnotic by watching their performance. Singing in German and old Norse. The female singer got some pipes on her vocal.

Love this thread. So much variety & fun to see musical tastes.

Couldn't view this one, so quoting with another link to see if it helps.

Re: Post a song you like or love.

Mike Scott is definitely in my top two or three favorite vocalists/lyricists of all time. I think I've seen him live eight times now?

Re: Post a song you like or love.

Anyone else a fan of The Wild Swans? "I'm a Lighthouse" is my fav of theirs. Space Flower is a marvellous album, but that cover must rank among the most hideous of all time.

Just a hauntingly beautiful song. Sioux's vocal bring tears to my eyes.

One of the top rock anthems, imo:

Re: Post a song you like or love.

Question for Norm: Why are so many great songwriters/singers/musicians Canadian?

Anyway, this next song has nothing to do with that question. Glad to read the comments to know that I'm not the only one brought to tears by it. Saw Nanci on a twin bill with John Prine in their prime...magical night for everyone.

I have no idea. Maybe someone else has a theory. I agree with the premise of your question, though I might be viewed as having a "hometown" bias (with apologies for the cringe-inducing likes of Bieber, Dion, and Nickelback).
It should be noted that the Canadian music cognoscenti has traditionally been dismissive of some Canadian music as "CanCon dross", let's say. CanCon is a form of government support for Canadian musicianship, but given that we live next to the media behemoth that is the United States I am not opposed to it.

Canadian music or not, I'm just shocked Norm posted something created after the 80's.
