GUEST,Robert Dawson Songs That Mention Canadian Places (239* d) RE: Songs That Mention Canadian Places 30 Sep 21


Stringband did a version of "John Henry" (ca 1975) inspired by the Canadian Union of Postal Workers' protest against sorting machines and the postal codes that made them possible. It had one chorus consisting entirely of Canadian place names recited rhythmically, and another one with a similar string of postal codes. Unfortunately, it's very difficult to memorize.
