Why are they listed as Canadian when they formed in England?
They’re half-American, half-British, formed in the UK, and were signed to Attic Records in Canada. Their international release consisted of re-recordings of previous Canadian releases. But no, they aren’t Canadian. Skyhawk0 09:19, 7 February 2007 (UTC)
What was the highest position of "love shine a light"? On this page it says no. 3, whereas on the site of Katrina Leskanich, is says no.2 Which one is true?
Ok, please tell me I'm not the only person who mentally connected the band's name to Hurricane Katrina...anyone? Doregasm 22:10, 18 May 2007 (UTC)
Some years before "Walking on Sunshine" came out, there was a promotional commercial that ran on American TV for a while for one of the branches of the Armed Forces (maybe the United States Air Force). There was a good band or singing group who performed during the ad with a female lead singer. Maybe it was just the connection to WAVES, an early female branch of the U.S. Navy; but when I saw a photo of or a performance by Katrina Leskanich, there was a resemblance to the woman lead singer in that commercial. I always wondered if that might have been her, or maybe even the whole band, because there were about four of them altogether as I recall. Anyone know anything about that? I never have seen a reference to that in any article on the band, though the article on Leskanich mentions that her father was a colonel in the Air Force, so maybe he could have gotten her the gig.
