Australia Day and Australian music

[Grumpy John]

In the lead up to Australia Day I was thinking what song/s would evoke the strongest thoughts of home if I were overseas on the 26th. of Jan.
Here are a few of mine, please, share yours. They don't have to be about Australia, just make you think of home.

The Mills Sisters, The Warumpis and The Pigrams. We have 4 AAA in Bris. I've been listening for years.
I couldn't find Kev Carmody doing his " Droving Woman " but these guys are pretty good. :)
