This song is a) Overdone b) A big downer c) KD Lang is not the worst cover, but it's pretty laboured.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I was already down from Both Sides Now!

But why are your most famous songs so sad?

It's the 10 months of snow, while living in igloos that makes us melancholy.

I'm glad you're hear to explain the Canadian people, Sue.

Yeah, as much as I love her voice, that's definitely not my favorite version of that song ever.

It is a huge downer song, too. Like, why choose that? Because it's Cohen's best known song?

I was half asleep from that.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

Huh. "Both Sides Now" always makes me smile. I can't not sing along.

I've heard "Hallelujah" a couple of times when it was great and fitting, but too many times when it was neither. It didn't work for me here.

Her voice and that song always make me cry.

WTF is this presentation of Canada?

Not that hard since it took us over two years to get our act together!
