Saw this today and just had to share. Thorstein Bergman, a Swedish national treasure, singing Waltzing Matilda in 1965. SO GOOD WTF? I've only ever heard him singing in Swedish before.

Hey Spain, Sweden and England can you guys let Australia win the World Cup as the NSW premier said we could have a public holiday if we win! Thanks (I hope I don’t jinx this)

Tom Waits: anyway here's this song I wrote when I was at my lowest possible point, around about the time I was blind drunk for six straight months in the Blighttown Swamps and met the love of my life but she left me for a bottle of whiskey wearing a suit so then I gambled, told my woes to a stripper, drank aeroplane fuel, was homeless, sang to the moon and got my Stacys wet; it's called "If There Ain't A Bar In Heaven Then I'm Better Off In Hell Also God Is Drunk And/Or Dead And All Lawyers Are Bastards"

hey do you all know that banjo patterson's classic australian anthem, waltzing matilda, is about a guy who drowns himself to avoid the cops
australians know this but most english speakers on the internet are not australians

Outback NSW 2022.  Once a jolly swagman / sat upon his wheel chair / under the shade of a steel akubra hat / and he sang as he watched / and waited while the tourists passed / you’ll come and see Yeovall village with me.  (apologies to A.B. (Banjo) Patterson.

I love how our defacto anthem is a song about a hobo who steals a sheep for food then becomes a ghost. Classic Aussie lore.
