      What a fabulous job Mitch and his singers did, but I was appalled by the totally amateurish video shooting wobbling and going in and out of focus with the zoom. There's no excuse for accepting that poor effort, so why they didn't they check it out, reject it and do it again? We also get to see the cringeworthy view of a bloke in black directing the audience participants, who didn't seem to know what to do as a group. No, thank you. You've totally let down Mitch, our First Nations people and our country with this failure to produce a video of professional standard that does justice to the song and the singer, NITV.
