Edith, I'm excellent ...Thanks Jenni and Edith.<br /><br />Edith, I'm excellent at inventing my own lyrics to existing songs. One of these days I'll get it right...<br /><br />Jenni, I definitely think this is Australia's unofficial national anthem. The America's Cup win many moons ago probably helped it become more popular because it was played to death in the media!<br /><br />Alli Sinclairhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00363202163419352155noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8018311341701044333.post-58637198670880242442013-04-16T18:42:14.950-04:002013-04-16T18:42:14.950-04:00I love the song too, although I think I've had...I love the song too, although I think I've had the words wrong for the past thirty years--ack, is it possible it's really over 30 years old???Edith McClintockhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01603936893736424107noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8018311341701044333.post-6113115217452821202013-04-16T13:33:28.955-04:002013-04-16T13:33:28.955-04:00I love that video!
