about

Songs about the ALCAN highway, sanitizing things, getting sick in the morning, and coming to terms with being Schmidt. This is the ALCAN! Perhaps the Nice Canadians first great record (with the exception of Cool You Down, which is stupid).

Largely hailed as the best Cans record from start to finish with the best production of all their releases to date.

The ALCAN (the song) is a tale about making out with a girl on a boat on the way to Alaska. A universal love song.

International Rod Stewart Day is about just that. It also asks you to "Look look look look, pay attention!" because we already sanitized that.

Sick in the Morning inspired a movie of the same name.

You need a vacation so get on the ALCAN.
