I love this song, always wishing I could live in Australia. Here is an explanation of the lyrics. I hope the link works.

Good Lord...I had no idea this song wasn't about dancing. How cool!

Speaking of waltzing, or, well no matter! Cloris Leachmon is still on Dancing With The Stars and she is actually a competitor especially for her age and being up against all those youngsters.

Why shouldn't she win the prize??? She already dances better than Susan Lucci, whom I like, but she dances like she has something stuck up somewhere it shouldn't be. Get my meaning?

I'm watching that some...it's hard to believe that someone 82 is doing as much as she is. Now she takes it over the top with her silliness sometimes, but you have to love her.

I like the big guy who did the hustle this week. He really came out of his shell, didn't he? He nailed it. I was so happy for him!

Who got sent home? Was it Susan Lucci? She did have an injured ankle, so I felt bad about that, but to me, she's never done very well anyway.

Toni Braxton got sent home. I agree Chatty, Susan isn't enjoyable to watch when it comes to dancing. And that smile....it looks fake.

It's probably the result of too much plastic surgery...she can't move her lips. They're permanently in a smile. My Lord...she must be 101...I can remember watching her when I was in high school and I'm old.

I think she (Susan lucci) said she was 62. But if you ask me, and no one did, but I'll tell ya anyway smirk... she looks a bit like a skelton. Goodness, she needs to eat a sandwich!

I remember learning Waltzing Matilda in grade school gym class.
But, I had no idea it was the Australian Anthem and had such
a deep meaning. I also learned something today via that video.

I love Dancing with the Stars. I agree. Susan Lucci looks a bit
fake. Don't know why. But Cloris is a trip. I love her. My gosh, if I'm moving at 82 I'll be happy, say nothing about lifting my leg desktop high. Holy Hannah!
