What do you think the Australian anthem should be changed to if they decide to change it?

    I really am sick of Advance Australia Fair. At my school assembly we have to stand up straight and listen to it and it gets really, really boring. I think they should jazz it up a bit.

    I can just vaguely remember the theme, but when I was younger Blinky Bill was THE SH*T (in a good way)

    stand up, left hand over heart, right hand holding aloft can of fosters, say 'Australia, Australia, Australia, God love ya' and drink.

    no prizes for guessing where I got that from ;)

    I personally like waltzing matilda, and if the north doesn't get too bitchy, the 'south australia' by the seekers could be a good choice.

    A national Anthem is one of those things that symbolizes the country of your origin. You just can't say, change it because it's getting stale. You need a strong & valid reason based on a major event in your country's history & a majority of your country's legislators should agree upon it too.

    In some countries you could get in trouble for dissing your flag or anthem.

    You know, having freedom to do something also comes with an equal amount of responsibility.

    And though there is freedom of speech, most people (like you :p) forget that they need to be responsible for whatever they do say.

    So yeah, being all tough & crap like that may be cool now, but once you incriminate yourself & go to court all that bad assness of yours will mean squat, unless you can defend yourself sensibly :p
