No me neither. I only suggested 'I Still Call Australia Home' since a proposal of a replacement to our current anthem was made and I thought, if we're going to change it at least change it to something that's not about a sheep thief who commits suicide to avoid being caught
I actually like our anthem a lot. As you point out, it's cheerful, doesn't mention anywhere about deities saving our land/leaders and it's not too long. Last night I heard the Japenese anthem at the rugby - I dunno if it was the way they played it but it was so dreary and slow and depressing! And I think the Russian one is in a minor key!!
