How many times a day do you sing the Australian national anthem

@RebelFox 🧐

@CrazyMusicLover "Slobodovonia" sounds very nice. Maybe I should modify the name of my virtual homeland accordingly?

@Elessar The melody is, of course, stolen from Wagner's Grail leitmotif:

Note the "upward" direction of the melody; that's because we are a forward-looking nation unconcerned with the past.

@helenS Kind of smells of freedom.

@ExtremeNext that's what happens when you have two official languages

@KiwiDan I thought you guys just talk English and sheep 🐑

@KiwiDan I still remember it though I'm on the other side now

@ExtremeNext
[i]Arise, children of the Fatherland
Our day of glory has arrived
Against us the bloody flag of tyranny
is raised; the bloody flag is raised.
Do you hear, in the countryside
The roar of those ferocious soldiers?
They’re coming right into your arms
To cut the throats of your sons, your comrades!

To arms, citizens!
Form your battalions
Let’s march, let’s march
That their impure blood
Should water our fields. [/i]

Ukraine today...

@helenS Yes, unfortunately. The French anthem is such an evergreen..

@SW-User Well you can always sing it as you watch and wait till your billy boils (but only if you camp by a billabong) 😏

@helenS So hard to find a decent billabong these days.

@SW-User Yes and you aren't even a swagman, let alone one under the shade of a coolabah tree!

@TheSirfurryanimalWales 🤔

@ExtremeNext Welsh anthem

@TheSirfurryanimalWales OK then 🤦‍♀️

For infected sores on the brain🎼😜

That eucalyptus leaf is making me famished.

@MellyMel22 👀

@SW-User not enough 😡

@ExtremeNext I’ll step it up more

@SW-User I hope so

@DownTheStreet 👍

@geoam1 👎

@SW-User that's, weird

Not really, when you think about the complete randomness of birth..
And the artificial construct of nations..@ExtremeNext
