@@lancebrown5334Without a vote? Where were you on April 9, 1974? I voted for “Advance Australia Fair” (as did more than half of those who participated!). You had your chance. To be fair, this song hadn’t been written yet and would be an easy winner today.
I came from the dream-time From the dusty red-soil plains I am the ancient heart The keeper of the flame I stood upon the rocky shores I watched the tall ships come For forty thousand years I've been The first Australian I came upon the prison ship Bowed down by iron chains I fought the land, endured the lash And waited for the rains I'm a settler, I'm a farmer's wife On a dry and barren run A convict, then a free man I became Australian I'm the daughter of a digger Who sought the mother lode The girl became a woman On the long and dusty road I'm a child of the Depression I saw the good times come I'm a bushie, I'm a battler I am Australian We are one, but we are many And from all the lands on earth we come We'll share a dream and sing with one voice "I am, you are, we are Australian" I'm a teller of stories I'm a singer of songs I am Albert Namatjira And I paint the ghostly gums I'm Clancy on his horse I'm Ned Kelly on the run I'm the one who waltzed Matilda I am Australian I'm the hot wind from the desert I'm the black soil of the plains I'm the mountains and the valleys I'm the drought and flooding rains I am the rock, I am the sky The rivers when they run The spirit of this great land I am Australian We are one, but we are many And from all the lands on earth we come We'll share a dream and sing with one voice "I am, you are, we are Australian" We are one, but we are many And from all the lands on earth we come We'll share a dream and sing with one voice "I am, you are, we are Australian" "I am, you are, we are Australian"
So Australia Post made $3.9 billion on parcels but lost $182.1 million on letters ; poor things Sounds healthy to me . How do they know ? The same workers handle both and the overall profit is up so stop telling porkies AP Our local PO is ultra busy so where is the lower foot traffic?
@@jadenbird5883 You clearly have never listened to the anthem. Also, the UK isn't as religious as it used to be, but God save the King/Queen is still a popular anthem in the UK. Maybe listen to God Bless Australia before judging it. Look it up & come back. Also, yes, Australia is a religious country. Just not as much as they used to be. Get over it. The world is under God. Feel free to disagree, but you being a jerk to people who do believe in God only gives atheists a bad name.
@@rabbidcrazy787 it’s outdated and time for us to move on. And no, Australia has no listed religion because we’re multicultural. Wasn’t a dick, just unmoving in wanting religion anywhere near our policies.
When I think of Australians I think foremost of the fact that the early Australians began a journey of races who have built up Australia - beautiful song.....
