MARK'S CANCON SONG NOTES: January 5 – January 11, 2012
ARTIST | TITLE | NOTES |
| Bellamy, Clayton | Everyone’s A Dreamer | I thought he sounded tougher than this. Average. (1/2) |
| Bamford, Gord (C) | Is It Friday Yet? | First release with Sony. (1/2) |
| Brandt, Paul (C) | Together Again | He does ballads and meaningful songs well. (10/10) |
| Canyon, George (w/ Richard Marx) (C) | When Love Is All You Got | Time to give it a shot. (11/28) |
| Dane, Marshall | About Last Night | Very strong song lyrically and melodically in the chorus. Great hook! (9/19) |
| Deere John | Soldier’s Prayer | The first line almost loses me but once past that the song does grab me. Another solider song in a long line of soldier songs. The simplicity of the melody and arrangement make it easy on the ears. (11/7) |
| Fisher, Genevieve | Light Up The Night | This sounds pretty big league to me. Nice performance and a quality song. (1/2) |
| Fillmore, Shania | Dreams | (10/3) |
| Friends of Jack | Found | Nice harmonies in the chorus. I wish those harmonies were established earlier. (9/19) |
| Gibson, Steve/Moskaluke, Jess | Amanda | (11/28) |
| Isabella, Kira | A Real Good Radio | (11/14) |
| Kennedy, Tonya | Fallin’ For You | (10/3) |
| Kole, Lori | Caught Up In You | Nice vocals. OK song. (10/3) |
| Kyllonen, Pauline | More Than a Kiss | (1/2) |
| Lewis, Aaron C | Wishing Well | Great hook! Catchy. This feels good. (10/24) |
| Lines, Aaron (C) | Sunday Afternoon | Feels good like a Sunday afternoon! (9/26) |
| McCoy, Jason (C) | I’d Still Have Everything | (9/11) |

| Rayy, Nicole | She Don’t Know That Much | (10/17) |
| Semko, Jay | Big Feet Big Shoes | (1/2) |
| Shawanda, Crystal (C) | Closer | I like this. Her best in many years. Susan Ashton did this in 1999 and was her title track of her debut country CD on Capitol. (1/2) |
| Smith, Dallas (C) | Somebody’s Someone | I love his voice singing country. Very excited to see what he does in this format. Strong debut! (11/7) |
| Stellas, The (C) | In This House | This is excellent. Powerful. We have another strong song for November 11th and I hope well beyond that. (11/7) |
| Violet, Madison | If I Could Love You | Smooth female vocals. I like the melody and mood. (10/31) |
C) = Recommended
