Here is my effort to commemorate Australia Day 2012 the song, Up There Australia ! is a variant of, Up There Cazaly ! composed by Mike Brady & Peter Sullivan.
Up There Cazaly ! became a hit in Australia & has it's origins within The Australian Rules Footballing community, commonly known as AFL. The song has an interesting connection with Australian popular culture & is worth looking up via the net etc.
As far as I can ascertain this variant was also composed & recorded by the same men that composed Up There Cazaly ! A search via You Tube & the net in general by me failed to come up with any hard information concerning this version.
What I can say is it was recorded via Sydney radio station 2GB a few years ago & featured on The Macquarie Network's Ray Hadley Morning Show & can not say I've heard it anywhere else.
Am sure it will be agreed by most this song is stirring & a fitting tune to hear as we approach Australia Day 2012.
As heard on The Mick Williams Show, Sunday 22nd. January 2012 : -
