Does anybody know if there is an Australian CD that you can buy that has Australian songs on it, like We Are Australian, I Still Call Australia Home, and others?

erm... I think there is... Mum's penfriend played it to us when we were in Germany. Had those songs and Waltzing Matilda and others.

No sorry, that was in 2002 and I never saw it. It was just one he'd bought when he came here in like, 1997...

Damn. I looked up Aussie CDs and found some, but they either had songs I'd never heard of, or one, not both, of songs that I have that I want on it. I'm going to have to download them and get the lyrics and case and everything, but it will be good.

i've got one that i've had since i can remember, and the songs are as follows...


there's a grasshopper loose in queensland
pigs can't fly
bareleggro joe
tie me kangaroo down, sport
morningtown ride
home among the gum trees
six white boomers
uncle nobby's steamboat
waling int he sunshine
drover's dream
goodbye blinky bill

old man emu


this cd says:

home among the gum trees
