I can't claim it unfortunately Al; it was (I think) Justin Hamilton on Adam
& Wil's show on Triple J who pointed that out.
I can't watch someone singing the anthem now without humming "a 3 hour
cruise....."

Damn; I should Google BEFORE I hit "send"! It was Adam Hills.
(He even recorded it to the tune of "Working Class Man" as a charity
fund-raiser single.)

I'd be changing favourite songs from event to event...

I'd probably nominate "Too drunk to ****" by the Dead Kennedys once
just for the hell of it. :-p

Hell troll.
I'll play.

Because they're a bunch of nationalistic arseholes most of whom are born
killers who literally worship their own disgusting civil war.
And so, apparently, so we.
It also serves to remind us that the current pox-infested crop associated
with Sindy or whatever it's called are literally likely the only Yankees
who actually know where Australia is.
I cringe whenever I hear our stupid national thingee played before
'sporting events' FFS - and positively spit chips when I hear other
bastards stupid songs played on our soil.

Worst of all?
How about playing the stupid national song at a church service?????
Heard that the other day - still recovering. Still don't know whether to
laugh like a drain at that one. Or cry.

ummm, doesn't the US national anthem refer to their colonial
independence war of the 1770s, not the uncivil internal conflict of the
1860s?

Did you know that the words of Advance Australia Fair are a good fit for
the tune to "Viva, Las Vegas" as well as "We're Happy Little Vegemites"
and even "Hey, Jude"? ;)

It used to be played in the cinemas until the late 1950s/early 1960s (or
so I'm told, as that's rather before my time).

Not that I'd know, of course. But then again, I didn't actually say their
stupid song was associated with any one of their many wars in particular.
But context might have suggested otherwise.
Apologies.

For all I know it also matches that classic 'Zeh Harlot of Jeruselum'.

That were an ode to some inbred pomme ****wit of indeterminate origins,
incidentally much favoured by the recidivist Prime minister of the times.
It wasn't half the recidivist of the imbecile currently at the helm, who
apparently worships pickled turds discarded (after careful examination for
signs of commie worms) by his idol.
Best you get in and learn the words. You'll need to be able to sing it on
police orders any time soon, else be branded a terrorist and clapped in
irons for the rest of your life.

Whoops!. Now very OT in aus.cars.
Yankee cars make good tractors.
Sindy cars. All Australian or pommie designs? (Reynard and Lola)
Pommie/Euro/Jap engines....
hehehe!
There, that's better.

I'm told that in Brisbane during WW2, "God Save The King" (which was
also once the German national anthem), whatever the US anthem is, and
"Advance Australia Fair" were played at cinemas -- and that there was
usually a frantic dash to be outside the cinema before the three tunes
were played.

But if you want to go back even further, take a look at the horrifyingly
jingoistic lyrics to "Australia Will Be There".

Not to mention 'Tub Thumping' (I get knocked down).
Just repeat Advance Australia Fair instead of 'pissing the night away' -
the NRL may never be the same again ...
