Ah, there you have a good stereotype, Bry. Americans can safely be proud of being American, whereas the English get squeamish about patriotism. Does Canada feature notably on that continuum.

Nice stuff, Encubed. I kind of side with Bry on the issue of sticking too much to original sounds; my angle is that it can work as an in-joke when the original is widely known (as if fact "Over There" is within the JoCo universe), but I've been exposed to, and indeed committed, some horrific attempts where the only humour lies in comparing the original with the parody. Having said that, there are always points in a song where one has to use the original, modified or not, just so you can still say it's the same song.
