I'm a rover, can you love me anyway?
That's a Great Big Sea tune. Don't remember the name, but that's in the chorus isn't it? From that I would guess I'm A Rover, but I do not think that is correct.

We sat around at night and talked about so many things
Lay on the floor till the morning appeared
You laughed at me and said I just don't get it
You said we should be making plans for getting out of here

Better Off As We Are- Blue Rodeo

You can't imagine so many******* in the daily mail
All of them coming anonymously so they leave no trail
I never thought I'd have an admirer from overseas
But someone is sending me stationary filled with ***********.

It's been a hard day in the city
It affects you in the most peculiar way
Dull day don't seem pretty
We've said all that there is to say

Oh my word! PLATINUM BLONDE !! "Doesn't Really Matter"

Now that's BAD 80s stuff . . . :wink:

Another night in this strange town
Moonlight holding me light as down
Voice of confusion inside of me
No begging to go back where I'm free
Feels like I'm through
Then the old man's words are true

I'm a big fan fan of the bad 80's stuff. Along with a bunch of other 'B' material.

Is Heart considered Canadian? Kind of like we accept Ms. Twain is Canadian but we all know she stopped being one of us long ago.

In my mind, Heart is definitely Canadian. Neil Young, The Band, Joni Mitchell . . . anyone who went to the US to make it is still Canadian!

Ooh baby, you know the time is right
We are the light of two foreign ships, passing in the night
So fine, you know it's gonna be
So come on, come on, come on, come on baby
Come on if you want it to be

back to the 70's for us then...

Oowattanite - April Wine

(again, from Nova Scotia!)

My uncle has a country place
That no one knows about.
He says it used to be a farm
Before the Motor Law.
And on Sundays I elude the Eyes,
And hop the Turbine Freight
To far outside the Wire
Where my white-haired uncle waits.

I'm so tired, but I can't sleep
Standin' on the edge of something much too deep
It's funny how we feel so much, but cannot say a word
Though we are screaming inside, oooh, we can't be heard

When we were strangers
I watched you from afar
When we were lovers
I loved you with all my heart.

But now it's gettin' late
And the moon is climbin' high
I want to celebrate
See it shinin' in your eye.

Celine Dion?
