Match-up #27 - The Dark Canuck Vs. Emperor Penguin
Listen to the two songs in the match-up Back to Back, and consider the lyrics of the song. Feel free to post an unbiased analysis of both songs in this thread, but please refrain from cheerleading or making predictions for your favourites.
*note the time of this post. Matchup #26 is still open for a couple of hours, please vote in that matchup if you haven't done so yet.

"if we ever get home
and the subject comes up
this War isn't for children
War is nothing's enough"
The song has a unique beginning, and then switches into a raw and powerful rock tune at the end. All along, it carries a great message/story

Frig! Dark Canuck and Emperor Penguin both have special places in my heart, but I'll have to take a cigarette on the porch over a glass of milk in the evening.

Unfair fucking match up. Everyone gets all hot and bothered about Emperor Penguin when clearly The Dark Canuck is second only to Coconut Cream as the best Hip song.

If there was any way, Sean should get banned from voting or seeing the results for this one!
