Deborah you a star - you sing the song magically - you are unique and as a white Australian I appreciate your talent, your work and the effort your have put into perfecting your craft. You are a role model, and it is a sheer privilege to hear your work.

Depends on your personal taste. Deborah Cheetham is one Australia's finest sopranos. the strength in her voice is amazing and stirs pride and passion in so many Australians.

Julie Anthony has performed it many times at many events over the years. Ive friends from both here and overseas who have not forgotten this performance, and consider Deborah's voice and presence to be just incredible.

True, but can't be as good as at the Olympic opening ceremony version

[romantomato]

that yell from the crowd at the end really annoyed me.

Julie Anthony owned this song until now. Awesome! Credit to the orchestra as well.
