I love Rush and all, but maybe The Guess Who are the best Canadian band. They sure had a bunch of hits in 1970.

The Hollies have a song called I Can't Tell The Bottom From The Top. There's a joke in there somewhere, but it's just not COMING to me.

I'd never thought of it but yeah, it's in there. Not as bad as Adele ripping off the Fray, but yeah.

I don't completely dislike the Dead, but there are times when I scratch my head.  If I was ever required to do a song parody of the Grateful Dead, I just might choose Box Of Rain and play (and sing) it verbatim. 

... and I would choose Bruce Springsteen's No Surrender to parody him.
