    Not a song about my career, but a childhood question of "where do I fit in?" in the big, big world. Since so many different nations are mentioned, the worldbeat sound seemed very appropriate.

    Story Behind the Song
    "Where do I fit in?" is an interesting question that Canadians (including the kids) seem to like to ponder. "Am I important?" is the more universal theme here. This is about as close to a "message" song as I can write and even then, it's a big excuse to get up and dance some more! Enjoy.

    Lyrics
    Have They Heard of Me in Germany? (2003) Chris Hamilton

    When I was young I wondered about
    The people all over the world
    Do they wonder too, about me & you?
    The Canadian boys and girls?

    Is there some little boy in England or Russia
    Who wonders just like me?
    Is there some little girl in Africa
    Who's asking "Who is he?"


    Chorus:
    Have they heard of me in Germany
    Do they know me in Japan?
    Does the "Average Joe" in Mexico
    Wonder who I am?
    Do they get wind o'ya in India?
    Would they know me in Finland?
    Have they heard of me in Germany
    Do they know me in Japan?

    I'd like to travel all over the world
    to see new people and places
    I'd like to go to far away lands
    and to meet other friendly faces

    How do they live? What are they like?
    What do they do for fun?
    When can I go get on a plane
    And go meet everyone?

    Chorus:

    People 'round, people 'round
    People 'round the world
