164. The Tragically Hip
Although they are virtually unknown outside their native Canada, it can be easily argued that the Tragically Hip were the definition of Canadian music.

This is not to disrespect Rush or other powerful acts from the Great White North, but there really was no other Canadian band that consistently belted out songs that could not have emerged from anywhere else. That in itself was the problem. As much as Canadians could identify with the music of the Hip, it literally did not always translate South of the border and thus the American market that they attempted to track always eluded them. They are in the Canadian Music Hall of Fame, but the acclaim in Cleveland will likely not come.

The Bullet Points

  • Eligible Since: Tuesday, 01 January 2013
  • Country of Origin: Kingston, Ontario, Canada
  • Why they will get in: Actually they won’t. The only Hall they can get in is in Canada.
  • Why they won't get in: As successful as they were in Canada (where they were huge), they flopped in the U.S.
  • Nominated in: Never
  • Essential Albums: Up to Here (1989)
    Road Apples (1991)
    Fully Completely (1992)
    Day For Night (1994)
  • Our Five Favorite Songs as Chosen by Each Member of the NIHOF Committee: Small Town Bringdown (From The Tragically Hip EP, 1987)
    38 Years Old (From Up to Here, 1989)
    Blow at High Dough (From Up to Here, 1989)
    Locked in the Trunk of a Car (From Fully Completely, 1992)
    Ahead by a Century (From Trouble at the Henhouse, 1996)
