Board 8 > Canadian Music Fans! I need help deciding on a new project.

(+) Yeah! (+)

I've been thinking of a new writing project for a little while and I'm also feeling slightly patriotic. I'm curious which one of these seems the most interesting from a reader's point of view. First two are pretty self-explanatory, Canadian just means the majority, or the founding members of the band/group are from Canada and those two lists would probably be a hybrid between pure personal preference, and a Rolling Stone type list where all the obvious names are mentioned and each artist appears only once or twice. They would also have something ridiculous to generate views like ranking Justin Bieber's Purpose ahead of every Rush album.

The radio one takes a little background information... Radio stations in Canada are required to play at least 50-60% Canadian content in order to legally broadcast music. This means our radio stations end up being hella Canadian, while also trying to squeeze in all the biggest hits from the rest of the world (USA). This list would be a personal ranking of all the biggest, best, most annoying and overplayed radio hits since I started paying attention to music.

The last one feels a little ambitious as I think about it, but there were a ton of Canadian alt rock bands that popped up in the mid-late 90s and I feel like I could squeeze at least 10 great albums out of them and hopefully 15 "Oh yeah I remember those guys" types of entries.

Also open to suggestions.

Well, the #1 Canadian song of all time is obviously 2112 so that list would kind of just seem like a formality.

A very time consuming formality.
