This week's playlist comes with a little help from our friends at 24 Sussex Dr. Prime Minister Stephen Harper's musical turn last week was only scratching the surface of his iPod - what else do the Harpers listen to? Laureen Harper brought the question to her husband and children earlier this week:
"Here is our list that we argued about over breakfast. I have included songs from all of us. These are all songs that we have on our iPods. My husband and I have over 4,000 songs or 10 days of music on our respective iPods.
"When we start any road trip, we always start with Willie Nelson's On the Road Again and finish with the Beatles' The Long and Winding Road. The best laugh we ever had though was when Rachel was 1 and Ben was 4. For a joke, Stephen put on Highway to Hell, and when we turned around the kids were sitting in their car seats with their heads bopping along to the music. It was one of those magical family moments that we still laugh about, and it meant that from that moment on we got rid of all our children's music CDs and enjoyed our music as a family.
"You can see some rock that my husband likes, country music for me, Rachel insisted that Tom Cochrane's Life is a Highway be included and Ben is a huge Nickelback fan. Here is our list."
