That's gonna stick.

Bobbi hadn't heard "Blame Canada" before, so I played the YouTube video for her.



I'd forgotten what a potent earworm it is; now I'm afraid I'll start singing it in line at the Fresh Market or something.

  6. Love it. Last time I was in Montreal I couldn't get it out of my head.

    I work for a major Quebecois entertainment company and I hum it from time to time...

  12. One of the high points of my life was when I took #2 Son to Niagara Falls on a roadtrip, and the wee bairn, seeing the Canadian flags, burst into this song at the top of his lungs.

    Sniff. They grow up so fast.
