Great Canadian Song Contest

CBC Radio 2, Canada’s national music network, brings Canadians the chance to share their passion, and nominate their favourite locations in the country to be celebrated in song through THE GREAT CANADIAN SONG QUEST. Whether it’s a secret meeting place, a sensational signpost or a breathtaking wonder of nature, CBC Radio 2 wants to know! Canadians get the deciding vote on who writes and performs the songs from among Canada’s finest musical icons and emerging stars. The end result is an incredible cross-country playlist, with 13 brand-new, original songs for Canada’s playbook. Each artist will compose and record an original song, inspired by the locations chosen by Canadians from each province and territory.

Wenn Sie bei dem Contest abstimmen wollen, brauchen Sie nur auf das Logo zu klicken. Die Umfrage läuft noch bis heute Abend (23.10.2009).
