  • Thank you...This is a magical version of our anthem.

  • I like that it's clean with clear lyrics and the music accompaniment is nicely arranged. Thank you!

  • I want to apologise to all the unfortunate people who have to sing this at school. It really has about as much spirit as dry toast. I am truly sorry that your forefathers and foremothers could not come up with something better.

  • we have to sing this at skewl

  • i think this is the least annoying version 

  • HSPA im going there next year

  • Connells point public school (cpps ) rocks

  • your a life saver! i soo needed this and this is the perfect version!

  • @angiebabe13xox Glad that I could help. All the best. Paul

  • I thought this was a cute version of the national anthem! Nice work! ^_^

  • I LOVE AUSTRALIA!!!!!, GREETINGS FROM THE REPUBLIC OF THE PHILIPPINES!!!!

  • i do not get it some words shouldn't be in there

  • We don't always use all the verses well most school don't.

  • bye da way there is three verses in the anthem

  • @2COOL4U200 There are actually 5 verses to our National Anthem.

  • this is the one my school plays at da end of a whole school assembely

  • At first, my school had one verse after my friend told my teacher, my school changed into two verses.

  • Thank you so much for this song. Luckily, my school had 2 verses. I love Australia.

  • God Bless Australia.

  • thank you so much!! i have the honor of singing the anthem at my school in november and this is the prettiest version i've heard!! ^_^ would u be able to send me a copy?? i would so appreicate it!! =) just let me know 

  • @strangechild34 You should be able to download a MP3 version from YouTube. There are many free programs available online, just google 'download mp3 from youtube'. I have used these before and they work well with good quality sound. Best of luck singing the anthem... and well done!

  • i didn't know the second verse because at my school we only sing the first verse

  • @Haylee199886 You should talk to your school as the second verse is far more meaningful than the first - most schools sing both. Thanks for the comment Haylee

  • @Haylee199886

    Yeh mine too.  But then now they slowly include the 2nd verse in most primary school. Love this anthem!!!!

  • @nudle19 yeh all schools should have it, because we are Aussies and i didnt even know the whole thing, and that makes a disgrace.

  • @Haylee199886

    But i found that i barely hear it in my high school years besides those really important occasion. I missed the primary school assembly where the whole school stands up with respect. I wouldnt say it's a disgrace..the main verse is like the main one that everyone knows. And i think the 2nd verse was only added on not so long ago.

  • @Haylee199886 yeh, but we are australains and that is the anthem tho, if you know where im coming from? but if it was added not long ago i respect that.

  • @Haylee199886 lol .. same here.. except sometimes we do the second verse

  • @Haylee199886 What's your school's name?

  • i love our anthem :)

  • @SwaySwayAngela i love it to, its beautiful, i love how it talks about the beauty of the nation and not about bombs or wars. hope to see it soon, btw your koalas are adorable ;)

  • @BwoodLegionAmb12 Thanks for the comment. Koala's are cute, but they are rarely seen in suburbia. They also smell pretty ordinary! I hope that you make it to Australia soon.

  • @HogwartsCastle I guess it is verses 2 and 5 which are controversial. Probably not so racist (poor wording from me), but now considered politically incorrect. Verse Two When gallant Cook from Albion sail'd, To trace wide oceans o'er, True British courage bore him on, Till he landed on our shore. Then here he raised Old England's flag, The standard of the brave; With all her faults we love her still, "Brittannia rules the wave!" In joyful strains then let us sing "Advance Australia Fair!"
  • @paulecohen And verse 5... Verse Five Shou'd foreign foe e'er sight our coast, Or dare a foot to land, We'll rouse to arms like sires of yore To guard our native strand; Brittannia then shall surely know, Beyond wide ocean's roll, Her sons in fair Australia's land Still keep a British soul. In joyful strains the let us sing "Advance Australia fair!"
  • my top 3 favorite anthems:

    1. USA

    2. Australia

    3. (tie) Canada  Great Britain

  • No way! Aussies don't put racism in their national anthem mate! NoWay!

  • thanks I didnt no the 2nd verse

  • I think it actually has six, but the others are now considered racist! Thanks for the comment.
