    Default Australia Day and Australian music

    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.















    To grow old is inevitable.... To grow up is optional

    Confidence, the feeling you have before you fully understand the situation.

    What could possibly go wrong.

    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.

    Warumpi Band - My Island Home (1988) - YouTube
    The Pigram Brothers-Nowhere Else But Here - YouTube

    Couldn't forget Lucky Star And Austen Tayshus

    I still call my papers Tally Ho barts.
