This video was posted by the late Mr. Tibbs at my request. The pictures used are in conjunction with the lyrics & the places Rita MacNeil toured when in Australia in 1991 & 1992 as well as Expo 88'. This is not meant to leave part of the country forgotten, but to tell the world of her fellings in another land other than her own. This is a wonderful song, should have been used during the Olympics in Australia a few years ago, with Rita as the performer. Go Rita Go..
WOW, this is fantastic, would love to visit someday!!!...Every pic makes me dream about it and the video is beautiful...Thank you for a fabulous post!

Thank you Peter T for a great video. My wife and I flew a 4,400 nm (8148 km) aerial tour around eastern and central Australia this June just past and the song and images bring back some great memories. From an Aussie pilot now living Vancouver, Canada, Good On Ya Mate, Well Done!
