America's de facto national anthem. It ain't traditional, but it's a tradition.

Seriously, like half the stuff would be football related. Cheer Cheer for Old Notre Dame, Are You Ready for Some Football?, Rock & Roll Part 2 (All of which are crappy songs, btw). For all intents and purposes football music is one of the few genres of music still binding people together in America.

Other than that, the good ol Battle Hymn of the Republic...

Not that 'traditional' because it's only about 20 years old but this song, for me, has a nice British folk-sy feel to it. This is from when they were good!

The bagpipes always raise the hairs on the back of my neck and just watching the video makes me ache for home.

I was jigging mackerel off the coast this summer with my old friends and wondered why I ever left.]

Edit: OP just clicked your link! I was considering putting the same one down myself lol.

I miss me a good old fashioned kitchen party.

Though I do wish Nova Scotians would give the Celtic madness a break sometimes and cut some slack for some of the other awesome/non-celtic rock bands that come out of our province.

From the other coast:
