Julie KeastWhat Australian song reminds you of Australia?
I was thinking about what song reminds me the most of Australia and what it means for me to live in this country and the song I instantly thought of was this one:
"Your're the Voice" - John Farnham
We have the chance to turn the pages over
We can write what we wanna write
We gotta make ends meet before we get much older
We're all someone's daughter
We're all someone's son
How long can we look at each other
Down the barrel of a gun
Chorus:
You're the voice try and understand it
Make a noise and make it clear
oh-wo-wo-wo-ho-wo-wo-wo
We're not gonna sit in silence
We're not gonna live with fear
oh-wo-wo-wo-oh-wo-wo-wo
This time we know we all can stand together
With the power to be powerful
Believing we can make it better
We're all someone's daughter
We're all someone's son
How long can we look at each other
Down the barrel of a gun?
Repeat Chorus:
Ohhh, We're all someone's daughter
We're all someone's son
How long can we look at each other
Down the barrel of a gun?
Repeat Chorus to fade
To me this song reminds me of being able to say anything you like without being persecuted by government or authority, basically it also reminds me of Democracy and Freedom as well.
So come on all you Aussies out there, on this Australia Day what Australian song reminds you of something special about Australia.

P.S I could have put "Don't Dream its over" in there instead but it would look a bit too obvious
