God Bless Australia 

Exactly! Now they’re just selling our country out to the globalists! Taking our land & flooding the country with immigrants!

@@Edgar-xh8iu I don't see anything wrong with having immigrants? Especially if they contribute to the workforce and economy.... I understand people's opinions regarding illegal immigrants, but surely legal immigrants should be welcomed? And if we treat them well, they will stand for Australian values

@@leodahvee "If we treat them well" Look I'm American but in the interests of the wider Anglo world, to which we are both a part of, it's not up to us to accommodate immigrants. I say this as a first generation American.

@@MHurtado89 Why shouldn't one accommodate immigrants?

Every year unfortunately our numbers that remember and celebrate the Australia of this time grow smaller and the vision painted by this wonderful song grows dimmer. What do we do about it when our demography is no longer considered influential or worse? Being told we need to be educated when I’m more educated and have achieved more than all of these woketards put together. Im just glad I’m ready to go.

that was i thinking

Agree

And today, "the Anzac" should have been replaced by "defenders" as in the ADF.

It is the true patriots anthem. The atheists in the alp refused to have an anthem with God in it.

Isn't the current PM of australia an Australian? Unless if you mean the Aboriginals

@@TankEngine75 He is talking about the Chinese

And the Us

Same! ...and I don't even live in Australia!

It's really magnificent isn't it. There is an instrumental version on the flip side of the 45rpm which is incredibly moving - basically a slow, rich version of Waltzing Matilda. My grandfather, Jack, was so disappointed that it didn't become the national anthem. It was his swan song.

@@jackohagan159 I know this is very late, but do you still have the 45rpm reel? If so, can you please upload it?

Louis Wills-Fidock I LOVED it too but when I posted it to Facebook, everyone's whinging about the "God" reference. missing the whole point as usual! besides I can remember singing "God save the Queen" as a kid at school!

TV use to finish at midnight every evening and this Song was played to close the TV station for the night .. I LOVE this song .. Should be our National Anthem.....Sadly everyone hates " GOD " which is SAD in so many ways .Which explains the sad state of affairs in our country and the western world for that matter...I am not even religious...But I do thank God from time to time....lol

who was that ?

I voted for this one back in the referendum. Love it over the crap we have now. would rather have stayed with God Save The Queen than Advance crap!

@@paulbeames8734 they changed the lyrics from the original Advance Australia too Paul unfortunately

It's very moving isn't it Wayne.

Based, keep it up fellow coloniser

Not long. Just wait, the way everything's going we'll be Sharia Australia unless we take a stand against the opposition.

To hear someone else talking about the same thing I'm seeing, what, with these Godless fools in the left and all. Glad someone else agrees.

That red floppy 45 size 33rpm is probably a real collector's item now David. I've still got one too. I remember the family driving into the station to get a few - we were so excited for our grandfather, Jack O’Hagan. It looked like it might become the national song/anthem for a while but, sadly, didn't get through to the final competition.

@@jackohagan159 Sorry for the late reply, I had to tell you that when I bought mine it had the red disc, my twin brother ruined my colouring book so my father bought me a replacement and it had a black disc🙄 so I kept them both...🙏🕎🌎🌍🌏✝️🪔

Written in a very different time. Jack O'Hagan was my grandfather and he put his heart and soul into it. I am glad you like it. Thank you for your kind words.

@@jackohagan159 yes it sertenly was a different time such good times such a beautiful song it brought tears to my eyes very touching you must be proud of your grandfather blessings to you and your family

@@donnabootes7272 Thank you Donna. I am almost finished Jack's biography - if you want to know more visit www.jackohagan.com.au.

@@jackohagan159 thank you i will 😊

@@jackohagan159 it’s an amazing song. Shame it isn’t our anthem! You should be very proud! Where abouts in Australia are you from?

Yes, I have one of those - they're rare these days I expect. It has Waltzing Matilda on the other side. What is the Jolly Swagman bag? Was that the restaurant?

@@jackohagan159 The 45 record was in the bag with other material I was only 6 yr old at the time and remember getting it from the old Ampol service station

@@DavidPola1961 It was a pretty big deal at the time David - I remember pulling into the station to get copies too.We were so excited - Jack was my grandfather. If you want to find out more about him check out www.jackohagan.com.au. Biography coming out this year.

@@jackohagan159 Wow how good is that

Actually, it was written to the melody of 'Waltzing Matilda' because it was a melody and that everyone knew - already an Australian 'anthem'. Jack O’Hagan knew it was a fine piece of music, perfectly suited to his national song, and that if people knew the melody they could easily embrace new words - similar to football club songs that are written to melodies of songs everyone already knows. He felt the words of 'Waltzing Matilda' did not have the gravitas for a national song that he hoped would be played all over the world - what other countries would know what a jumbuck or billabong was? Most Australians didn't know. Jack was patriotic, religious and of the Menzies era but it was a very heartfelt contribution. I know that because Jack was my grandfather. They were very different times - not much immigration, a different type of community and little or no recognition of our First Nations people. It was not selected for the final Australian anthem competition because the powers that be wanted to avoid 'God' and, I believe, because it was the only song entered that was under copyright - an expensive option for an anthem.

@@jackohagan159 im not trying to undermine the contribution, but the selection and promotion of this song by such a large corporation at quite an expense does raise questions about motivation and intentions. It might not have been written directly for that purpose, but ampols intentions must be to undermine working class music, there's little other explanation I can think of.

Unfortunately, it didn't get to the final vote - it was the only possible contender still under copyright. 'Waltzing Matilda' was put to the final vote but not 'God Bless Australia'. I don't think they wanted "God' to feature in our national anthem.

Hi Ali, It was originally recorded in 1967.

@@nolimitarmani Should ask yourself the same question. What are the Chinese doing in the US? Dumb question ain't it?

@@nolimitarmani What are the Americans doing in New York? It belongs to the Lenape people.

As a matter of fact, I think 'We Are Australian' is more appropriate for this time in our history, it's definitely a great Australian national song and more inclusive, but there is no need to call people 'plebs' because they think differently from you.
