"Canada" by Pilot
Scottish 70s band, Pilot, specialized in melodic pop with sticky hooks, but only hit the Top 40 in the US once. Their classic hit, "Magic" soared to #5 in 1975, but failed to provide the talented band staying power. After two other modest singles, "Just A Smile" and "January" stalled at #90 and #87, respectively, the band took a nose dive. It's hard to believe, given stuff like "Canada" in their catalog. This catchy tune from 1976 did not chart in the US.
