McDonald's Girl is a funny tune, but songs like "It's All Been Done", "What a Good Boy" etc that define the Ladies, are what will be still great to hear when I'm in my 50's (still 31 years to go till I hit the big 5 O). Rush, Neil Young - yes great musicians who I love & admire. But here in India, Bryan Adams is the most loved Canuck. There are 4 autorickshaws in my homecity of Kochi that bear his name on the back!! If you don't know what an autorickshaw looks like, click HERE. I think he could get elected Prime Minister of India if he stood for elections here. I have to admit, that guy does have quite a few memorable tunes.

So, Bryan Adams' name adorns the back of four autorickshaws in Kochi.  It sounds like this is the Indian equivalent to having a star on the walk of fame.

For the record, my all-time favourite Barenaked Ladies song is "Brian Wilson".  My all-time Bryan Adams song is probably "Summer of '69".  Do the names of any other Canadians appear on the back of an autorickshaw in Kochi?  Could you perhaps take a digital picture of this Bryan Adams autorickshaw and email it to me so I could share it with the rest of Canada?
