Australians have Banjo Paterson’s The Man From Snowy River, Canadians have The Cremation of Sam McGee by Robert W Service. I love it, morbid being that I am. And now somebody’s gone and put it on YouTube.

There are strange things done in the midnight sun
By the men who moil for gold;
The Arctic trails have their secret tales
That would make your blood run cold;
The Northern Lights have seen queer sights,
But the queerest they ever did see
Was that night on the marge of Lake Lebarge
I cremated Sam McGee.
