I like that we had a minister called King O'Malley. He sounds like he should be Moomba king or some shit :D

omg! what a great trip down memory lane. This is one of those songs you can't help breaking into a boppy jig whenever you hear it, it's so great! Very much a classic.

oh i just remembered my mums sent pp a cd called "AUSTRALIAN LEGENDS" with a lot of these songs on it. Want me to ysi?

sunny successor, Thursday, 18 October 2007 17:52 (sixteen years ago) link

plz.

gr8080, Thursday, 18 October 2007 18:03 (sixteen years ago) link

Also, these all seem like great suggestions so far and I'm very appreciative, but its not like an Aussie party or anything. It's just a club gig in a place that usually doesn't have a dj. And on this particular night there will be an abundance of Australians. So, non-aussie suggestions that might go over well is encouraged.

gr8080, Thursday, 18 October 2007 18:05 (sixteen years ago) link

that age group? anything 80s.

one year passes...

Australian Prime Minister Kevin Rudd said: "Winning the right to host the 2018 Fifa World Cup is a Herculean task, but overcoming tough odds is what Australian football does best."

Australians, can you please provide me with some examples of these tough odds being overcome because I sure as fuck can't think of any.

here is one: when i tried out for macquarie university soccer it was january and i'd been in the country for four days. i was jetlagged and it was 36C. after ten minutes i threw up under the shade of a eucalyptus tree, but i still made the team. that is true grit.

caek, Friday, 6 February 2009 01:33 (fifteen years ago) link

admittedly i made the sixth team (of six), but i was their second best player!

caek, Friday, 6 February 2009 01:34 (fifteen years ago) link

getting an entire state obsessed with one of the most tedious sports in history is pretty tough odds

carbonara not glue (electricsound), Friday, 6 February 2009 01:39 (fifteen years ago) link

victoria and afl?

Calling AFL tedious is pretty rich if you come from the US or UK/Europe.

xpost

Bored of Canada (S-), Friday, 6 February 2009 01:56 (fifteen years ago) link

or anywhere in the world pretty much.

Bored of Canada (S-), Friday, 6 February 2009 01:56 (fifteen years ago) link

except melbourne

carbonara not glue (electricsound), Friday, 6 February 2009 01:58 (fifteen years ago) link

who is a greater national hero, mel gibson or nicole kidman

max, Friday, 6 February 2009 02:02 (fifteen years ago) link

Mel Gibson at least starred in Mad Max (1 & 2)

Bored of Canada (S-), Friday, 6 February 2009 02:05 (fifteen years ago) link

who is a greater national hero, esteban buttez or naomi watts

max, Friday, 6 February 2009 02:06 (fifteen years ago) link

esteban by far

carbonara not glue (electricsound), Friday, 6 February 2009 02:07 (fifteen years ago) link

neither mel or nicole are australian

so wait are australians calling soccer "football" now or does he mean afl or rugby or something?

JAM, DWANGELA, RELLY! (sunny successor), Friday, 6 February 2009 02:08 (fifteen years ago) link

nor?

kevin's just a ponce

carbonara not glue (electricsound), Friday, 6 February 2009 02:10 (fifteen years ago) link

overcoming tough odds is what Australian football does best

Which sort of football, as SS just asked. If he means soccer then it makes sense: we never make it into the world cup, is the obvious one, so the one or 2 times we have everyone acts like we won the moon.
