This collection explores Canadian music's commentaries on American
culture. 'American Woman, get away from me!' - one of the most
resonant musical statements to come out of Canada - is a cry of
love and hate for its neighbour. Canada's close, inescapable
entanglement with the superpower to the south provides a unique yet
representative case study of the benefits and detriments of the
global American culture machine. Literature scholars apply textual
and cultural analysis to a selection of Anglo-Canadian music - from
Joni Mitchell to Peaches, via such artists as Neil Young, Rush, and
the Tragically Hip - to explore the generic borrowings and social
criticism, the desires and failures of Canada's musical
relationship with the USA. This innovative volume will appeal to
those interested in Music, Canadian Studies, and American Studies.
