    I'm sorry Scher, but that's horrible. Is it supposed to sound like that, or is the video a bit duff? 2/10

    I wish it would... I wish it would. That's a sweet song, a bit too sweet for my taste (right now).
    3/10

    The next song had a wonderful live-version on youtube, but I can't find it now. So here's the album version.
    Life is a lemon and I want my Money Back
    It is not too late, to be wild for roundabouts - to be wild for life
    Wolfsheim - It is not too late

    When I saw the album cover I didn't think that I would like it. I was pleasantly surprised. 7/10

    This song has been stuck in my head on and off for about eighteen years:

    I always thought the government thought we were retarded or something. This one is better than the house hippo ad at least. I'm not sure if it's a good or bad thing that there isn't a Canadian between the ages of 20-30 that doesn't have that horrible song memorized. 10/10

    The extended version is hilarious too, they explicitly state poison could make you sick, in case you didn't know.

    The stuff of nightmares! If someone had shown that to me as a child, I'd never have put anything in my mouth ever again, including food. As music, it cannot deserve any form of rating - n/10

    This, on the other hand, is wonderful. It isn't my favourite version, but it's the best I could find:

    @Pip: Holy crap. I'm blown away. That was fantastic, the video and the song were really up there with the best I've ever seen. Thanks for that. 10/10

    Haha, It's not my song, but I've got to put this up for the non-Canadians to see. That house hippo was on tv every like, ten or fifteen minutes in the 90's:

    @Loka: Opera isn't my stylebut I can appreciate her voice. 7/10 from me, but I'm sure I'd rate it higher if I were more familiar with the medium.

    Do yourself a favour and this video if you havn't already:

    I think that's going to give me nightmares, 8/10.

    Here's some more Canadian TV nostalgia, oh NFB where would we be without you using tax payer dollars to produce mediocre cartoons.

    Another thing I will have to do before I die: "Waltz with a log driver!" 3/10.

    One of my first "favorite songs," used to listen to it on 8-track. 8/10

    It's not going to stop 'till you wise up.

    Tuneful but tiresome. 4/10


    Not quite the deity she's made out to be, but pretty good nevertheless.
