I am Australian - Telstra advertising campaign

[JeremiahNepe]

We are one, and we are many. To become bogged with stigma and racial discrimination thought slogans like "we grew here, you flew here" and "go on shove" stand to defy the great values and ideals this proud country was built on. All non Aboriginal Australians immigrated here, and without future immigration we would be an ageing and dying society.

[ewjones12]

I like the song, I don't like the ad or the cover.

[cjkleocjkleo]

LOVE AUSSIE, proud of being Aussie, We are Australian!!!!!!!

[parsizaban]

who cares you're australian?

[MsSloppyseconds]

@parsizaban Aww you jealous?

[parsizaban]

@MsSloppyseconds no I'm not jealous. you can be australian like another is american or the other indian, etc. is it more special being an australian than being an spanish or french or any other? everyone is an something or a something else. but because you're australian you think you're better than an english or an arab or a chinese etc. It seems a bit childish to me, don't you thing so? shows to the world that you're racists while you try to hide this fact.

[MsSloppyseconds]

@parsizaban We sing this song because we're proud to be Australian, what's wrong with that? If you live here then you'll know we're a proud people. Go ahead make a song called I am American I couldnt care. This song is for Australians if you don't like it don't listen to it, simple.

[parsizaban]

@MsSloppyseconds it's more arrogance than pride.

[MsSloppyseconds]

@parsizaban watch?v=uBI3xiDzxMM

Listen to every word, if you can't get the picture I feel very sorry for you.

[PresidentZod]

@parsizaban No reply?

So as well as being an ungrateful stinking hypocrite and an easily caught-out liar, you are also a chickenshit coward who runs away and hides at the first sign of a bitchslapping, huh?

If you're a typical example of your wacko cult membership, no wonder you were forced out of your own homeland by your own people. I can't stand you either.

Is that why you haunt YouTube mocking your benefactors - to alleviate the shame?

It must really bite being a sand nigger's nigger.

[TutorialAwesome]

we are one but we are many as me telstra is fucken gay

[rondono116]

who sang this song? plz tell me i love this version!

[Seattlecarnut]

[lillygoddesss93]

[Barrington640]

Who sang this version?

[SLASHentertainment]

Ad is great but why do I have to wait 7 hours in a store to get a telstra mobile ?

[TelstraCorp]

@SLASHentertainment if you have to wait seven hours, try our online store.

[tony999Melb]

@TelstraCorp

Online store? Ha ha...your broadband sux too....Bring on the NBN...let's get rid of Telstra.

[SharedJoy]

I've been living in Australia for about 14 years now.

I love this country. I love the people.

Believe me, I will give my live for this country.

but..., I hate this fucking company!!!

[YayForCake]

My Dad directed this ^.^ But, as a result, I'm sick of this song.

[cjkleocjkleo]

GOOD VIDEO!!

[lindies18]

I am an Australian call centre operator, being made redundant and my job shipped overseas...

[CloudPimp]

haha yeah for sure!!

[laptopsarebest]

Should be our national anthem. Everyone knows it!

[wevets1]

......for the potential aussies.........nothing racist....but if you're lucky enough to get in.....don't support more people. you left a place for an uncomortable reason. lets enjoy the space.

[savas1212]

This ad blatantly shows where Telstra has come over the years.

Their original ad was more about uniting people as being Australian while this is a desperate attempt to advertise its products

[bufu102]

Telstra sux!!!

[PoleReseal]

where can i get this song?

[shutc21]

try typin in to google i am australian mp3 download

[suzi147]

lol i remember singing the original version on my year 4 open day at school with my class :)

[popaddict]

Awesome version of this song!

As an Australian with an Indian background nothing makes me more proud than calling Australia home!

[juzzen]

i rmemeber being dragged kicking and screaming to some shitty footy game and this ad showed on the big screen and 80% of the crowd sang it spontaniously! it was awesome. the game was shit but it was worth it to see so many people singing one song with feeling

[CuritibaMr]

What is this video, Great Seats, beautiful landscapes, simply fantastic, are really to be congratulated, I could visit some day, different culture, a country very attractive ... Thanks for sharing, very beautiful places, also did a video, if you want to see is so paste this address in the Youtube link /watch?v=42JhgBotuYs

[sessedge]
