The Molson 'Canadian National Canthem' Looks Forward to Canada Day
Vivian Lau — July 1, 2012 — Pop Culture
Canada Day is fast approaching and the Molson 'Canadian National Anthem' is the perfect instrumental to sing our allegiances along to.
Using the viral potential of a creative song-covering video, Molson features five musicians who use nothing but Molson cans, kegs, bottles and bottle caps to create this patriotic masterpiece. They are played on in all sorts of different ways -- the keg-fashioned drum set is banged on, and bottles are blown into to make hollow sounds of varying tunes. The result we are left with is an anthem rendition worthy of our unending excitement and love this long weekend.
What better way to sum up a festive birthday than with two things that are so inherently Canadian -- its anthem and beer!
