Harper has a campaign song

and it’s going to go viral… (listen here)

First, Stephen Harper gets surprised by Geri Hall from 22 minutes as the “single female voter” and now this.

I just received an email from Mashline.com promoting a song they put together called “I’ve got a crush on Harper” by “Mashline Girl”.

It’s in the same vein as Obama Girl’s “I’ve got a crush on Obama“.

Only the audio is available now, but they’ve promised a video.

Click here to listen to “I’ve got a crush on Harper”.

Sorta creepy if you ask me… but some people will enjoy this I’m sure.

    I hope it drives Dion nuts. They should play it as an intro whenever the prime minister walks in the room. It's not really surprising as Harper has gained a lot of support over the last few years among voters who were sitting on the fence.club penguin
  • I think that I quite like it
  • Yup, sorta creepy, but definitely, there are some people that might like this.
  • Chris
    HAHAHA, too funny. Sorta creepy is right though...

    When I donate to the Conservative Party, this is what you spend my dollars on? This is outrageous.
  • This song was written and performed by a PR company looking to tap into the attention of the federal election. The Conservative Party, as far as I know, didn't spend a penny on making this song.
  • Cool tune, I like it. I hope it drives Dion nuts. They should play it as an intro whenever the prime minister walks in the room. It's not really surprising as Harper has gained a lot of support over the last few years among voters who were sitting on the fence. It's a keeper.

    I love it!
    To Libs, NDP, Greens, and Bloc: so sue me.
    I still love it.

    It's pretty hard to not admire Stephen Harper. Good looking fellow, writing a book on hockey history, nice family, good looking wife and is brilliant.....oh yea, did I mention that he's Prime Minister of Canada and vote one of the most respected leaders on the planet, by all the respected leaders of the planet. Woulnd't have wanted to miss that.

    Like I said, hard not to admire him.
  • I think it is funny. Can hardly wait to see HarperGirl
  • Catchy tune!
  • bert
    I think we are looking for subliminal messages here.Or something nasty.I just think its a catchy tune.I think it will catch on and become a talking point of the election.
  • I would love to hear Casey Kasem do an intro for that one.

    "And now, a long distance dedication from a woman who just can't get enough of a certain Canadian leader..."

    "Keep your feet on the ground and keep reaching for the stars."

  • I love it. Anyone who thinks this is a bad thing has to lighten up. It might have been meant as a joke, but there is nothing nasty or insulting in it and I think you'll find more and more women are seeing Harper as a solid, decent and likeable guy.
    In this first few days of the campaign Harper has shown himself to be far more relaxed than he used to be and he isn't afraid to joke around. I don't see him being uncomfortable with this -- he should be flattered -- after all, you won't find anyone singing a love song to Stephane, Jack or Liz. Ewww.

    I heard Harper say in an interview in the last election that his favourite song is "Thunderstruck" by AC/DC. AC/DC? How cool is that?! Who's Dion's favourite artist? Mozart? Yes, that's what the average joe listens to. On CTV Newsnet, Tory strategist Tim Powers said "Harper's a guy who will come in your backyard and have a beer with you; Dion's a guy who will ask where your wine cellar is." That's gold! LOL

    AC/DC's new album is out and the first single "Rock 'N Roll Train" and the album was recorded in Vancouver. Again, very cool! Harper should play it when he comes out for his victory speech on the night of Oct 14th.

    I've read that Harper's favorite bands are The Beatles, The Rolling Stones and AC/DC. He's also known to have quite a large vinyl record collection and supposedly has memorized the lyrics to every Beatles song.
  • I think Harper just lost the Election!
  • He sure did, lol
  • yep he lost. It seems that his song didn't help him much at the end.

    And he might even leave this year already:

  • i dont think the song had so much to do with it
  • people were too freaked out by the song.
  • Cool Blue
    Ha!

    It's not as bad as I was afraid it would be. Kinda catchy actually
  • Holy Majority Harper!!!

    Beautiful voice, excellent song, but I'm biased! I have had a crush on Harper's policies for a long time. Who says us females don't like him. I like his solid family credentials.
  • Ontario Taxpayer
    Nice melody............lol
  • For some reason I see the Prime Minister looking very uncomfortable while hearing this.
  • Admit it Stephen. That's totally you singing that song. Nice pipes.
