  • great memories of a wonderful time spent in Australia

  • I'm quite surprised this guy isn't more popular here in the states.

    I'm a big fan of The Church by the way. Just like anywhere else, Australia has produced it's share of class acts. Unfortunately, like the Church, so many bands had nary more than a single hit outside of Australia.

  • @kateandannarose

    Our year 6 teacher tied songs like this in with our Australian history module. Man that was a fun time....

  • @kateandannarose There's actually a large portion of America who can really relate to this song. We aren't all a bunch of thugs and superficial city dwellers.

  • long and missed slim MATE ! but your songs will follow you and your friends and mates around the country your still with us thanks

  • @mrblindfreddy9999 Then the copyright should be tested, he did not write the words and his corporate heavies have no case in this instance (and in several others). Bloody hell, someone lost out on copyright over using "part" of a nursery rhyme, using all of the words of a published (and well published) poem? Just because someone has tried to ensure legal protection, doesn't mean it'll work. Legal opinions are like arseholes, every one has one.

  • @kateandannarose its good but its hardly the pinnacle of all western poetry. There have been qute a few amazing american poets.
