"Advance Australia Fair" is the national anthem of Australia. Created by the Scottish-born composer Peter Dodds McCormick, the song was first performed in 1878 and sung in Australia as a patriotic song. It replaced "God Save the Queen" as the official national anthem in 1984, following a plebiscite to choose the national song in 1977. This means they held a competition (announced via an entire Australia Day speech) and had the entire country participate in order to create a whole new anthem “symbolic expression of our national pride and dignity”. The final entries were "Advance Australia Fair", "Waltzing Matilda" and "The Song of Australia", with the winning anthem receiving over 43% of the vote!. Other songs and marches have been influenced by "Advance Australia Fair", such as the Australian vice-regal salute. Fill yourself with Aussie pride by learning the song with this amazing piano tutorial.
