I really like the currant national anthem Leonis. Just compare it to that morbid dirge that NZ has. However a couple of the verses could do with being lost. I posted a thread similar to this about a year ago and Donut made special mention of the second verse!

'I Still Call Australia Home' Is a also a great song and infact I use it as my sig in Cloudys excellent oasis forum.

and yes Aelia Jusa it would be a great national anthem. However I see no benifit in changing the national anthem yet again. A lot of resistance is still felt just because of it's newness. Watcthing my son and other schoolkids sing the national anthem every morning with gusto is quite heartwarming. Given another decade or two I think it will have become a very ingrained and popular song.


Now as for the flag [img]graemlins/1puke.gif[/img] dont get me started [img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img]
