Package is a full-color, 4-panel wallet containing a vinyl look/feel CD and a 12-page booklet with full lyrics and artwork.
Songwriter's note to the hard-core audiophiles (truth in advertising): This is a high-quality CD-R, burned from a digital master in a professional manufacturing facility. It is NOT a replicated disk. I had to choose between replication and the vinyl look/feel I wanted for the CD. For me, the visual aesthetic was more important, given that most people are streaming these days anyway. The audio quality of the CD-R is the same as a pressed disk.

Oh Canada, I heard your voice on the radio
Saying you're still there with open arms
Oh Canada, I'm on my way
Over the border and through the woods
Your voice gave me solace and a little hope
Oh Canada, I'm on my way
Oh Canada, your voice on the car radio
The world outside was covered in snow
I had a getaway car but I couldn't go
Oh Canada, I could not go
Oh Canada, your voice stuck in my head
I'll either make it there or I'll end up dead
I had to postpone freedom for another day
But oh Canada, I'm on my way
MOIRA:
Oh Canada, you can't imagine what I've seen
You can't imagine what they've done to me
Oh Canada, please take me in
Oh Canada, are you the land of milk and honey?
Where I can read a book and spend my own money?
Oh Canada, you took me in
Oh Canada, a bowl of cereal can make me cry
Blessed be the Froot Loops, under his eye
No use asking the reasons why
I'm still alive and she had to die
I made it to the land of Canaan
Oh Canada, can I begin again?
LUKE:
Oh Canada, a man can break or a man can bend
Oh Canada, you took me in
Oh Canada, a man can break or a man can bend
Oh Canada, can you help me mend?
Oh Canada, a man can break or a man can bend
Oh Canada, I'm a broken man
Oh Canada, you've done so much but it's not enough
Diplomacy can only go so far
It's time to raise an army, start a righteous war
For my wife and child and so many more
So many more, so many more
They're trapped on the other side
Oh Canada, it's a genocide

Karen Jonas' first album is a great collection of songs that tell intriguing stories. I can say I knew her back when; she played at a songwriter showcase I used to run and I got hooked on her voice. Haze & Dacey
