Fifi said to Don the Baker
"Can you show me how to bake another bun, Don?"
And I'm still sittin' with my next door neighbour sayin'
"Where'd you get the gun, John?"
Don't you wanna rain dance with me?
Don't you wanna rain dance with me?
Don't you wanna rain dance with me?

Christopher was askin' the astronomer
"Can your telescope tell me where the sun's gone?"
And I'm still sittin' with my next door neighbour sayin'
"Where'd you get the gun, John?"

Changin' just a few things
Laughin' while the bell rings on the go
Changin' just a few things
Shootin' when the bird sings

Shootin' when the bird sings

Because Canada Rocks!!
Not complaining at all, but Bill does seem to play a lot of Canadian music. Just curious as to why? :-)
Because Canada Rocks!!
super talented band...I always enjoyed them
1971 - my first LP was the Guess Who's 'Canned Wheat' - bought with money from my 11th birthday at the hardware store in Minden Ontario.
Alright, now I've more than (1) Guess Who song!
Always impressed how much music from Canada Bill plays.
Bill, any connection to Canada?

Not much of a fan but, the album title and cover art are worth something. And the nostalgia.

Haven't heard this since it was a "new release"! Thanks, Bill and Rebecca. My thoughts to your friends and family in Paradise.
Wow! Never heard this one before either. Cool as f*ck, Mr. Bill!

This is the first time I have ever heard this song. I knew who it was, and I am glad they had other good songs. Thanks for playing it, Bill!

Leonard Cohen
Robbie Robertson
Joni Mitchell
Guess Who
Daniel Lanois
Tragically Hip
Rush
Alanis Morissette
Gordon Lightfoot
Jeff Healey
Neil Young
Steppenwolf (Yes, Steppenwolf. They started in Toronto)

Yep. I'm Canadian, and proud of it!

Blue Collar was by BTO. Love that song, too. Randy Bachman's guitar talents are overlooked because of his association with BTO.
Great band. I love "Blue Collar" by them.

Never heard this before. Thanks for going beyond the Golden Oldie chestnuts, Bill.

Today seems to be 1971 day.
This is the third in a few hours - at least!
Nothing wrong with that :)

Well said. BYW, for those who wonder what we are talking about, "Canadian Content" rules for radio broadcasting originated when a Windsor radio station was playing almost 100 % motown. Our communist government did not like such scandalous stuff.
Once again, better CanCon from Bill than from any station north of the border...
