Miningman, thanks for the response on "Oh Canada."  I had to ask, I was listening to some variations on "Oh Canada" on YouTube by various artists and in the "Comments" section there was quite a war going on between the Celine Dion and Lara Fabian fans.

Personally I think they're both pretty good.

And back to the National Anthem, several years back I lucked into a John McCormack Victrola record of his rendition of the "Star-Spangled Banner" done around 1918.  Ol' John does the first and last verses, and quite well too.  That old Victrola can be quite a time machine if you give it a chance.
