That was wild to say the least!
I was hoping to hear some of the Johnny Carson interview.
Strange as it may seem, I never have heard of Jeff Healey before now.
Thanks for the "enlightenment" Yuri!

The Beach Boys are to America as Blue Rodeo is to Canada.

Loretta Lynn is to America as Anne Murray is to Canada.

I will have to think about it some more...lol. It's more difficult than I thought.

I will stick with my Elvis is to America as Gordon Lightfoot is to Canada.

As far as Elvis, {THE KING OF ROCK & ROLL} for me, I think he's pretty difficult to compare. But hey Anne, that's just me ! :)

Hmmm...I should have thought of Barbra Streisand in comparison to Celine. In truth, I can't stand Barbra...lol.
I know, it's unamerican to not like her but I can't help it.

I have to agree with Jesse Joe about Jeff Healey. The man was in a class by himself and I can't think of anyone that comes close to him.
Yuri, that was an amazing clip. Thanks for putting that up...loved it :)

RM...what do you mean you have a headache...lol. This was your idea :)

I think we should twist it even more, my friend. How about complete opposites?

Barry Manilow is to America what Leonard Cohen is to Canada

That should make a few people cringe :)
