[pounce4evur]

At 1:00 watch for the blonde kid with glasses who isn't singing. just keep watching him till he starts singing. lol so cute

[brlagle]

u cant say gay in school

[moremoar]

and it's "kookaburra sits IN the old gum tree"

[bigswallow2]

Sounds like a college choir!!!!!! Well Done!!!!

[anebanane83]

Wow, another example of close-minded, moronic Americans. Changing a classic Australian song because it contains the word 'gay'. Look up 'gay' in the Oxford Dictionary!!! For fucks sake, when will Yanks stop being so shit?! Infuriating!

[Carmaiqel]

This is the song which Men at Work have to pay for???

[mcalisteralyssa1]

The kids are amazing, but could the adult who edited out the word gay be any more close-minded?

Really, do they need a dictionary to tell them gay = happy or do they think saying it will make the children go bender?

[MayunaLove]

thats verry nice

[keenonwatching]

anybody who can help me find transcribe the last 4 verse?? I think I need to teach my pupils Kookaburra song with this arrangement. Marvelous!

[menpeoples72]

[mrfighter92]

@menpeoples72 its gay not great

[Biteable08]

omg their so good..i hven't herd this song since i was 4.

[HIIH8U]

theas kids can SING

[MongoMikeSkater4life]

They got the lyrics WRONG!!!

It's "Kookaburra GAY your life must be".

NOT "Kookaburra RICH your life must be".

This is a disgrace. I'm offended. I demand you take this off here EMMEEDIATLEEYY.

[MangledDragonfly]

I totally agree with you. But as we are in todays society we have to make corrections so we don't offend anybody.

[mwitheriff]

@MongoMikeSkater4life I AGREE!!! not only that, but if you are going to do an international song (which it is AUSTRALIAN!!) then you should at least do the right thing and look up the words. And the song doesn't end like that!

[kayceenips]

@MongoMikeSkater4life ok maybe the conductor changed the lyrics for a good reason, so stfu.

[queenofopera]

@MongoMikeSkater4life There are actually several different versions of this song with several different lyric options. Don't be so obtuse.

[marvie4ya]

lol they sound like angels.

this is great

:)

[neo12344]
