Geddy Lee seems to have an unusual amp setup in this one.

...Joni.

As usual the answer is The Tragically Hip!

...here's Ron

I remember seeing them live at the Dominion, Tottenham Court Road, it must have been about 1982. This was the first song of theirs that I fell in love with, and to.

Was going to post a youtube link to the song "Disaster" by this excellent Canadian band but seem to have forgotten how to do the embedding thingy - anyone care to refesh my depleted memory?

Some other great Canadians:

Robertson Davies - masterful Canadian novelist - criminally overlooked these days

The Bard of Montreal (of course)

David Cronenberg, scary filmaker

Having watched the entire CSNY Wembley 74 concert on DVD, this song gets by far the biggest cheer of the day. And what a line-up of backing singers; Crosby, Nash and Mitchell!

The Spoons and Glass Tiger have just rocked Woodbine Park ...

nickelback !

I was once on a Canadian train on July 4, having enjoyed Canada day three days earlier in Vancouver. An announcement came over the tannoy: 'It's a special day today, so can we please all give a cheer-'
At which point three charming Texan ladies began a celebratory chanting of 'USA!USA!'
'- to (name deleted due to my lack of total recall) in carriage 3 who is 75 today!'
The Texan trio sat down, slightly embarrassed.
[Please note that this is not a call-out to the recent thread on Americans with taste. I am something of an Americanophile, if such a word exists, with the highest possible regard for the cultural contributions and general awesomeness of the USA).
And my favourite Canadian, you ask? Why, Leslie Nielsen, of course.

off the top of my head...

Cowboy Junkies
Arcade Fire
Mary Margaret O'Hara
kd lang
The Band

not to forget Laughing Len, Neil & Joni

Looking forward to seeing this lot at Latitude;

It's this:

...he looks a bit like Adam Clayton.

I am surprised and more than a little hurt that Canada is regarded as being "belittled" more than my homeland. I mean come on!

...and say that, just for 50% of his "Reckless" album, Bryan Adams - YES! Bryan Adams - did his homeland proud. The utter toss which makes up absolutely everything else the man's ever done musically is more than made up for by:

(EXECRABLE video effort here. I maintain that if the production was a bit more natural, this song would get the plaudits it deserves as a great rock/pop song.)

It rocks

...With Choir

Tasty post rock treats.

Also include Godspeed You! Black Emperor as well.

have already been posted, but there is still Jim Bryson with his great song Somewhere Else

Can't find a clip of the masterful 'When The Girls Get Here' but here's their second-best song 'Amy Grant'

Neko Case
New Pornographers
Rufus
Broken Social Scene

Aren't they all Canadian? Seen them all live recently too.
