BTQ-7's 2005 use of "Love You Brisbane"

People who remember this slogan vividly, may not remember this usage.

Back in 2005, Seven Brisbane ran what ended up being their second last Brisbane-made documentary (The last being "The Joh Years" in April 2005). It was a hour long feature on the SEQ Regional Plan, which was still in draft stages. One of the main reasons we needed a regional plan, was to stop rampant Sydney-like growth. Most of the growth that led to Expo 88 (where strangely this video starts) was thanks to Sir Joh, so Seven put some footage of 80's Brisbane, to the theme which defined the station in the 80's, of course, Love You Brisbane.

The theme was also used as a guitar instrumental during the state funeral of former Brisbane Lord Mayor, Clem Jones (which was televised on Nine and Seven) in Brisbane's City Hall in December 2007.

I hope this is proof enough for 7 to finally put the king of slogans back on it's rightful throne in 2009.
