Theme: They Want Canadian Songs.
I got the idea for this theme listening to Donald Trump repeatedly making the absurd and ignorant claim that Canada has nothing the United States wants or needs. So, the songs on this show were all written by Canadians and performed by Americans. The Canadian songwriters' names are in parentheses after the song titles.
