    Fuck that, our national anthem should just be a TL1000 with an aftermarket exhaust just screaming through the gears.

    Love it.
    They should get rid of the other one though..

    New Zealand is unique for having two national anthems of equal standing - God Defend New Zealand and God Save The Queen. Both were inspired by patriotism, yet written in very different circumstances.

    Then we could get rid of the whole Queen thing..

    Great idea.
    Use the Country Calendar theme and apply Billy's idea:

    I hated that song the first time I heard it, and I hate it still. Absolutely not.

    Dave Dobbyn is kind of like Bob Dylan: and adequate to pretty good songwriter, long past his prime and with a pretty average singing voice.

    Except to be fair, Dobbyn started out pretty good.
    If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?
