Who is the singer in this clip ? Also does anyone know if there was another verison of this song in 1988 because i found and old tape of some people at my school doing a ribbion dance to this song but it is being sung by a female and male singer and its a tiny bit faster i thought it may have been released on radio or something does anyone know ? or know where i could find out ?

any longer version of the anthem?

[IanGorton]

NBN-3 Newcastle also used that National Anthem Sequence. And yes I I've seen a video on here of SAS-7 using the song version of my country.

Actually, here in Adelaide they did use the singer when opening in the mornings, but when closing used a voice over with a run down of programmes for the next night. Thanks for posting, always nice to come across some of the old close downs!

Nice clip! SAS-10/7 used to close down with My Country too, but without the singer in-vision.

[Yogiew2]

Yes that is right, Adelaide SAS 10/7 did use it as well.

I thought the singer in the clip was a good idea, but in adelaide they did use voice overs, so may be they did not want to have the singer in the clip.

Thanks for your comment.
