Makim and Clancy - The Band Played Waltzing Matilda

I listened to this the other day driving into town..always loved this...there was something gentle about the singing....How the Pommies fooled the Australians about World War 1. They were shameless in their betrayal ...lest we Australians forget the lack of respect that the big powers in this world hold us in.

Caught up on kitties, birdies and sad sunset songs. There is nothing like a kitty to warm your heart and feet. They require so little and give so much....I bet Thor would approve too.

I'm more familiar with the Pogues version but not matter what, this song always gives me goosebumps and I'm always hard pressed to stop the tears.
