[Buzz Rules]

Just wait until you find out that A-Ha was Norwegian and Rick Springfield is Australian.

Buzz, we have no problem with you claiming Bieber and Celine.

Buzz, we have no problem with you claiming Bieber and Celine.

As I said on the first page, we have been trying to return them for years.

 

[Buzz Rules]

Canadians, what questions do you have today about the USA?

But at least I have great taste in music.

OMG HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA

Thank you for this sorely needed laugh today

Canadians, what questions do you have today about the USA?

The question is why? And what? And how?But they can’t be answered here.

For the record, I like Justin Bieber and Celine Dion.

 

[Buzz Rules]

WHO is we?

The many Americans that Canadians are apologizing to for them.

Yes, they could if they were asked with non political intent and instead with culture in mind.

 

[Buzz Rules]

Everyone’s a critic.

I was going to ask if Buzz was telling us that as a fact or asking for affirmation. Ha ha!

Rick Springfield is Australian

He has citizenship to both Australia and the U.S. but for sure spent most of his life as an Australian citizen but moved to the U.S. about 50 years ago. Guess he technically is Australian-American as he has retained his citizenship in Australia.

Yes. I knew that, but it didn't work out as well for illustrative purposes...ha ha!

I took it as a request for affirmation

Avicii was actually Swedish. I thought he was American too.

The Scandinavia region is fairly popular amongst artists and DJs like him. 90s and early 2000s hit songs you'd probably be surprised at where the artists come from. A very popular song in the early 2000s you couldn't escape was Rednex's version of "Cotton-Eyed Joe".

Collectively it's more Eurodance style although Avicii IMO lead the way in a more modern style as well as David Guetta (who is from France), theirs is like EDM, house, progressive house, etc.

Now everyone admit you totally listened to "What does the fox say" by Ylvis (a Norwegian group) when it came out

While I am sure "many" might be possible, I feel they are TREASURES
(no, not really for me), but I didn't want them sent back to Canada so easily ... perhaps there are other candidates currently residing in the US, that recently came from Canada, that we can send back

They both are good singers, just hard on the head.

I've actually been to Celine concert years and years ago and it was an entertaining show.

My preteen daughter was in LOVE with JB when he came here. I bought the tickets and my sister stepped in to take her. She took one for the team lol

They aren’t so we can’t. It’s all good
