My parents came from war torn Europe and us kids were all born in Oz and I am so happy they came here. ❤️🇦🇺
I am Australian, and you are so correct, it should be our National Anthem.
Great Reaction to the song that should be Australia's National Anthem.
I am English from London and from a Country who are Australia's greatest Cricket sporting rivals but even I feel emotional hearing this Beautiful tune:)
WHAT? No no, no, greatest sporting easy beats !
I'm not even Australian and has never been on travel there either but this song makes me truly emotional because it takes me on a journey through time both past decades until today and gives me chills listening to the lyrics while they singing ...one of the best unofficial national anthems ever made, I hope that the Australian government grants their people a change of national anthem by polls or voting because this song deserves the title of a National anthem to be proud of
Inclusive is the word
There are two types of Aussies: those who were born there and those who chose to die there.
I am of the latter, having come here when I was three. I am proud of my country, always.
Thank you
Yes it came out a bit after 10am on Australia Day.
I'm glad you enjoyed this
I did...thank you again!😁
Really enjoyed you're video, much love & respect to you from this Aussie fella. Thank You for putting this up.
Thank you so much!😁
Omg my American baby, as an Australian black mum we so proud of this song they helped cut through racism u have me in tears ive never seen this version and to see all my people showing us makes me even prouder...only band whi made us blackfullas feel respected by them, very close to any Aboriginals heart. To me its like they saying look they iwn this land but dont have a problem with anyone then govt took over and this song helped. ...
G'day, You have so so much to learn about Australia, I hope that you go down that "rabbit hole"
Oh, I _know_ I do...thank you for watching!😁
I emigrated to Australia from the UK back in 1970 when I was 29 years old I am now almost 82 and Australia is home so I say proudly that I am Australian!...Sadly Judith Durham the female singer in The Seekers passed away last year. R.I.P. Judith.
That! That is the best video i have seen, for this song.
Thanks. You summed up the theme of that song beautifully.
You are so beautiful and thoughtful. I had to hit that sub and like. Hugs from an Aussie gal in Far North Queensland.
That's awesome...thank you for watching, for the nice compliment, and for subscribing!😁
Thanks for mentioning Dobe Newton.
You are invited and will be welcomed.
Chris
Awwww☺️that's super sweet! Not sure if I'll ever make it down under, but I appreciate this warm welcome!
Would you please react to Australian singer John Farnham who sings a song You’re the Voice which a lot of people think should be our National Anthem as well. The best version is with the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra. John is a legend who has had hits in about 6 decades having his first hit when he was 18 or so.
Thank you...I hope to get to that soon!😁
Great reaction.
Thank you for watching!😁
Visually a great video but not in the same ballpark as their farewell performance.
I love the song but it's the first time I've seen the video. It's a beautiful video.
I enjoyed your introduction and your comments. Thank you.
Although l love to see the Seekers doing their farewell performance in person for people who are are not familiar with Australian history the pictures do tell the story.I have listened to many reviews of this song and some of the reviews get that’s it a patriotic song and love it but don’t really understand many of the things sang about ,the pictures sure help.
Although this is far better than "Advance Australia Fair ,( with its "girt by sea " . Who talks like that ?). I was disappointed we didn't use "My Country " as our national Anthem. Most already know the second verse-I love a sunburnt country, a land of sweeping Plains. Of ragged mountain ranges , of droughts and flooding rains . I love her sun kissed beaches , I love her coral sea . Her beauty and her terror , the wide brown land for me .....( Please forgive any mistakes ,it's been a long time since I've heard it ). This song borrowed a few lines from it . - Dorothy Mckellar wrote this in response to English poets writing of the beauty of their homeland. Edit - In 1974 at the school I was then at we sang the second verse of this poem ( yes we sang a poem ) instead of the national Anthem . Of the 7 schools I went to this is the only one that did this .
He does it himsel . ❤❤❤⁰
RIP - Judith Durham, the best female voice of her time.
Hi D. Lynn, the closest I have ever been to Australia is the State of California, but by the last chorus I am singing along. Note: As someone else has commented, I strongly urge you to check out the Farewell Performance; you actually see them live.
I'm in good company...I visited Cali once, so I guess I was close, too! Thank you for your suggestion and for watching!😁
Just new to your channel. Thank you for that reaction, so respectful. This song isn’t practical for an anthem in its current form. Five verses is too long for many of the purposes that an anthem serves - imagine that playing at the Olympics every time Aussies won a swimming gold medal 😁. Rewriting to two verses and chorus, keeping the spirit of the five, would make a beautiful anthem, very fitting for a nation finally achieving independence. Please, and with great respect, Australians pronounce Aussies as Ozzies, not Ossies as Americans would do. Cheers.
Perfect, thank you for the correction! My info came from the internet, and I certainly have no say in what qualifies for a national anthem. It was still a moving tune to me!
@@DLynn Yes, it is beautiful. I teach it every year to new arrivals and it never gets stale. I think most Aussies would want it as a national anthem. We just would have to re-work it, and then go to referendum. It will probably happen when we vote on independence from Britain in a few years' time.
@@Bellas1717 sounds amazing. I hope it works out!😁
Judith Durham had a lung disease caused by measles when she was four years old ...you wouldn't reckon that listening to her beautiful perfect voice 💞💞🇦🇺
Not at all...☹️
Thank you!
Watch the footage. 🙂
Needs to be our national anthem instead of the racist crap we have now
Umm but sorry I have never heard it being replaced instead of our nation anthem plus this song is about how the people came to be in Australia its not one to be played at sporting events or on the podium sorry but it just wouldn’t fit.. there is nothing wrong with our anthem we have it’s about Australia advancing forward etc which is more suited.. while this is a beautiful song it’s not that kind of Anthem.. 😊🇦🇺
You obviously need to get out more. I've heard this song played often in school and at sporting events. Maybe it's because I live and work in alot of rural areas.😀
@@Blue-Dog I live in bush and it was never played at my kids schools instead of our anthem and never heard it played at sporting event either and I have a very active life Thankyou 🧐🇦🇺
@@aussiekat6379 oh you're an "older" person. Quite understandable you're not up to speed yet. I'm glad you are so friendly, positive and cheerful.I ☺️
Yes yes yes bluedoggie, this is the go to song for us.
@@Blue-Dog oh please am not old at all and am quite up to date thankyou and even if I was old as you put it what’s age got to do it.. you sound like you need to learn some manners and respect your elders, what makes you think you can have opinion and no else can. Grow up.. 🧐
