  1. If Fucked Up doesn’t win… well, I guess I don’t care that much, but I definitely think they’ve got the clear winner of that bunch.

      Yeah, not only it’s Patrick Watson, but “Malijube” is in fact Malajube. Great research on that piece!

  5. At least Coeur de Pirate didn’t make it.

    Joel Plaskett definitely deserves to win.

    The funny thing is, no one in Canada cares about or has even heard of Patrick Watson, even after he won the first Polaris Prize.

    Guess that’s why Patrick Watson sold 300.000 records in canada?
