One Great City! (2:53)
223,065 plays (32,669 listeners)
This song is about hating your home town, in this case Winnipeg. But it’s not real hate, more like the way you hate your brother or sister. The lyrics show an optimistic hope for his beloved/hated home town.

I think the beauty of this song is that it can be applied to almost everyone's relationship to their home town. You don't have to be from Winnipeg to feel and understand the power of this song.
