The good kind

"I Still Call Australia Home" is a song written and performed by Peter Allen RIP in 1980. In it, Peter Allen who was married to Liza Minnelli Judy Garlands daughter sings of Australian expatriates' longing for home. It has been used to signify Australian patriotism and nostalgia for home. An example is the series of Qantas television commercials where it was sung either by individual Australian musicians or one of several Australian youth choirs. This is also remade in their 2020 safety video, where various covers of the song were made accompanying a 100-year history visualization. In the 1984 Summer Olympics' Opening Gala TV special (in Los Angeles), Olivia Newton-John performed this song from Sydney, Australia with the choir in a medley with "Waltzing Matilda". Later, both songs were used in the musical about Allen's life, The Boy from Oz, in which Hugh Jackman starred as Allen. "I Still Call Australia Home" was added to the National Film and Sound Archive's Sounds of Australia registry in 2013. In Australian English speech of earlier generations, "home" referred to Britain. Thus by contrast, "calling Australia home" became for a period a particularly piquant expression of Australian identity. Peace out.

All the sons and daughters spinning 'round the world Away from their families and friends Ah, but as the world gets older and colder It's good to know where your journey ends. And someday we'll all be together once more When all the ships come back to the shore Then I realize something I've always known I still call Australia home. No matter how far Or how wide I roam I still call Australia home.🎶 Peter W Allen.

There's something magical about Australia and it's definitely the landscape. Wherever you go you can sense that this is a very old continent and that great age is evident in the rocks, the hills and mountains etc. This place definitely has a spirit that comes out of the land, the soil, the trees and the old aboriginal people are very much atuned to it. Although I want to travel abroad , I couldn't imagine living anywhere else.

Please never forget my ancestors the Australian Convicts they were taken from their families and homeland. Used as slaves to build the country I was born in. A lot of these convicts weren’t criminals they were trying to survive the Great Depression yet these convicts have never been thanked or even acknowledged for the deaths, slavery and torture they endured. One day I pray my ancestors will be remembered and just acknowledge for what they went through and what we built along with the indigenous people of Australia. There is a white stolen generation that have never been spoken about. The convicts are never spoken about and if they are it’s in a negative light..

Who???

I’m Australian , living in Canada now and have lived in a number of other countries - I’ve sung this to myself many times and it definitely brings out the emotion. We have another amazing song called, We Are One! You’ve got to hear it. X

Ash Barty (the one in Tokyo) and Adam Goodes (the one near the beach pool) are two legendary indigenous players of tennis and AFL. Kylie Minogue (the one playing piano in London) is our very own Aussie pop princess.

I want to go out on a limb and say the kids playing rugby are in Winton the birth place of QANTAS. Longreach school kids are shown singing as this was were the headquarters of QANTAS was moved in the 1920’s. QANTAS stands for Queensland and Northern Territory arial service so there’s is a shot of the old Darwin airport at 6:42 which was basically a hanger and it makes sense to open the shot with Uluṟu as the heart of Australia but also the NT association with QANTAS.

The original song I still call Australia home was written and performed by Australian Peter Allen it was a big hit for him, and just a bit of trivia he was also married to Liza Minnelli the daughter of Judy Garland.

I’m an Aussie and no matter how many times I see this, I still tear up..😢

Hey Guys! You watched it! I’ve been to the US lots of times. I have relatives who live there and I feel you when I see that big kangaroo on a red tail at LAX etc it really does make an old Aussie like me tear up. A big Aussie get together of your Aussie viewers if you two came over here would be awesome! I'd come to that! VK3CRG is not a word. It is my ham radio callsign! Callsigns starting with "VK" are from Australia and the "3" denotes my State Victoria. The "CRG" is obviously my name :) Craig - Australia

Miles, this is especially for you, a different QANTAS series: kzread.info/dash/bejne/qmuMqMOfmZevd9I.html I can’t express to you how it feels, after spending time in a foreign country, to step on board a QANTAS flight to head home, and suddenly realising you’re already home because this is an Aussie plane with Aussie staff and Aussie food and drinks! There’s nothing to compare with that!

When/if you do come to Australia, plan ahead, Australia is so large you need time to get to places, well worth the visit

When you did the review of Australian inventions, did you notice that many were related to transport and communications? No coincidence. Australia is a vast country, with towns and cities separated by great distances. Plus, Australians love to travel overseas and because it takes so long to get overseas, we tend to stay there a long time once we do. We also have a "gap" year, when young people often take time to travel and work overseas before starting higher education or a full time job. So Australians have taken home-sickness to Olympic gold medal standard.

The thing that stands out to me about this reaction, is that our sense of patriotism doesn't come from exceptionalism, unlike a lot of the USA. We just have a general sense of pride, family, mateship and home. I rarely tear up but Qantus definitely killed it with this ad, as they often do.

Qantas has a long history of using Peter Allen’s “I still call Australia home”. Like Peter Allen himself, Australians are among the most travelled per capita with a lot of Australians living temporarily overseas. This is particularly so with countries like the UK and the US (where Australians are the only foreigners that have their own special working visa purely for the purposes of long term, but temporary work in the E3), It was sad that Qantas had their 100th anniversary during the pandemic. It’s the oldest continually operating airline and the 3rd oldest after KLM and Avianca (BA managed to work out a really deceitful link between carriers to state they’re older, but anyone looks up the history and reviews how British Airways got to that conclusion would raise an eyebrow)

Since it's admission time, I block my ears and make humming sounds when any version of this song is played, because it hits hard. Great vid. Cheers. :)

600 Episodes! Great work guys. This song is always a tear jerker, the video makes it doubly so. As for QANTAS, It is the world's third-oldest airline still in operation, having been founded in November 1920; it began international passenger flights in May 1935. Many great Aussies in this vid.

The woman with the Fila gear on is Tennis World Number One Ash Barty. The kids singing in the school hall wearing maroon shirts are from Longreach in Queensland where Qantas started. The other kids in the white shirts are the Qantas sponsored Australian Children's Choir. They tour all over the world, in non covid.

You can not be Australian and not tear up. It is extremely emotional. I think it’s even more emotional seeing as they had produced this add just before they restarted the planes once we opened the borders.

It features a few famous Aussies who reside in other countries or have travelled overseas extensively for work. It’s saying even though they’re not able to be here, it’s still their home. Kylie Minogue - Singer Troye Sivan - Singer/Actor Hugh Jackman - Actor Ash Barty - World #1 retired tennis player Adam Goodes - Retired AFL great Brontë Campbell and Ellie Cole - Olympic Swimmers The Bangarra Dance Theatre - First Nations performers and story tellers

Every time I hear this song it makes me cry! 🇦🇺 proud to be Australian. Such great cinematography on this add.

I worked and lived abroad in 3 stints totalling over 10 years. And whenever hearing this song when I was 'away' was always just so moving and emotional. Beautiful song 🇦🇺❤️

This is the Australian Girls Choir and the National Boys Choir. My Father founded The National Boys Choir in 1964. All these children have been afforded such opportunity, and I’m so grateful that he had the vision to do so. ❤

It’s truly an Aussie anthem, I tear up every time. Qantas has been doing these ads for a very long time. It’s like a much needed hug and welcome home.

That was Kylie Minogue, one of the most popular and famous pop singers in the World. She started on the "Neighbors" TV show. Dont be scared of Roos, the big reds are the scary ones, they live in the deserts and Central Australia. Most roos in the Southern States are "greys", a smaller more placid version. And Uluru is actually sitting sideways and goes 2km underground. Its so large it takes 3-4 hours to walk around (approx 10 kms, 5 miles). QANTAS (Queensland and Northern Territory Aerial Services) is the world's third-oldest airline still in operation, having been founded in November 1920;[10][11] it began international passenger flights in May 1935.

@Erik Likyarn Most of Uluru is underground. About 2.5 klms with 348 metres showing above the surface. I got to climb the rock a long time ago. Was quite a climb and not a smooth surface on top of it. A few people died from heart attacks attempting the climb. Climbing this rock has been banned for a few years now in respect that it is a very spiritual place for our Indigenous people. I'm not religious, don't really believe in spirits or ghosts, but hmm. We camped near the rock at that time. But over the couple of days spent there, you (well me) could just feel something about the area, spooky almost, but tranquil. One of those things you just cannot describe. Some of the Aboriginal spirits? Dunno!

I cry at everything, even those home makeovers when they bring family back. This song does it to me every time.

These qantas ads always gets me teary and all I have to do is step outside and there's my Australia lol. Love this great southern land

Did you know Qantas is the only word in the English language without a U after the Q? Why? It stands for Queensland And Northern Territory Air Service. The schoolkids in the hall were at Longreach, home of Qantas in Queensland - where it all started. The kids playing in the field were near a clothes line. That is called a Hills Hoist and was invented in Australia. Each scene was very quintessentially Aussie.

This song was written by Australian singer, Peter Allen, and recorded in 1979. Peter Allen's life was made into a stage musical, The Boy From Oz. It is considered an "unofficial" national anthem, along with poems/songs like "Waltzing Matilda", written by Banjo Patterson, and "I am Australian" by The Seekers. Also, Qantas had already made another commercial using this song back in 1998, but they decided to use it again for this commercial, to celebrate coming together again during the lifting of Covid travel restrictions. Both adverts feature the Australian Girl's Choir and National Boy's Choir, but this new one also features the Gondwana Choir, as well as celebrities like Kylie Minogue, Hugh Jackman, and Troy Sivan.

That "squid games building" is MONA in Hobart. It's a seriously amazing museum/art gallery. To me, the building is a a reason to visit apart from the exhibitions.

As an Australian this makes me well up with tears EVERYTIME 🇦🇺🇦🇺

This song was written by the late great Peter Allen in 1980. He was colloquially known as The Boy From Oz. As a proud Australian this song fills my heart with pride and sends a shiver down my spine.

As an Australian I tear up every time I hear it.

Peter Allen wrote the song I Still Call Australia Home“ the man from Oz” was done by Hugh Jackman after Peter Allen died. Peter didn’t want to put it on the “ Radio” to him it was HIS song for him but he was talked into it..Thankfully ……..I got home from school to see my mum bawling with this song on the radio and even by the end I was crying. The next day the radio stations phones went out of order from everyone in Aussie ringing. It come out on record, tape, cd everything. The one u walked was lasts years Qantas “ come to Aussie “ ad we get a new ad with it every 2nd year… But watch the very first Peter Allen sing it. He was married to Liza Minnelli at the time and he just missed home . You grew up in the country or outback Australia and he just missed Australian wrote that for himself but it got out and we are so lucky to have that is our song

every time i watch the video, my pride swells up and brings a tear to my eye

Hilarious to hear Miles doing vocal gymnastics trying to read a ham radio call sign as a name phonetically... VK3 CRG

Honestly the 'Channel 7' ad for the upcoming Commonwealth Games is pretty lit too. The full length one.

By the way. The school kids singing in a hall with the words Longreach over the stage. Longreach is an outback town in central Queensland where QANTAS began. It must be noted that QANTAS just picked this song up to use on their advertisements. It’s wasn’t written for them or with them in mind. It was written by Peter Allen, the great showman, singer, songwriter, former husband of Liza Minnelli, discovered and brought to America by Judy Garland, writer of I Go To Rio, Tenterfield Saddler, I Honestly Love You, Quiet Please (there’s a lady on stage) and many many more including Carole Bayer Sager songs (Moving out Today).

As an Aussie you just cry everytime you hear this song...Peter Allen was a national treasure ...should be our National Anthem only to be challenged by I Am Australian...there is a Telstra ad done beautifully to that song that is a tear jerker too

ANY AND EVERY AUSTRALIAN WHO KNOWS THIS SONG sings along just like i do when i watch people react to this song, . any Australian who knows this song cant help but sing along with pride when we hear this song

Peter also wrote a song called Tenterfeild Saddler (about a man George Woolnough & his life in Tenterfeild who made saddles they built & named the local library in Tenterfeild after him) another beautiful Peter Allen song.

I saw Hugh Jackman sing this on Broadway in 2004. The musical was based on the life of the writer of this song, Peter Allen, and he sings this towards the end, when he knows that he is dying. If the video is emotional, imagine hearing it live!

if you want a "moving" song you must watch The Seekers farewell concert singing "I am Australian" pure patriotic gold!

Landing at Sydney international airport, walking out into the muggy air that smells like flowers and coffee and mateship. The magpies singing along with all the other birds. I still call Australia home.

The mother with the logo was world number 1 on tennis tennis - Ash Barty. Qantas adds with this song always bring a smile to my face.

As an Aussie living in Aus this ad was just beautiful. Though on the TV they have a shorter version.

That, 'musician' was Kylie Minogue (known by her detractors as the singing budgie). She comes from a long line of Aussie stars who started in Soap Operas (in her case, 'Neighbors').

That rocky place near the water is Cape Hauy in Tasmania. It is the location of the Candlestick and Totem Pole, and is absolutely stunning

QANTAS - Queensland and Northern Territory Air Services - started in Longreach, Queensland, hence the kids at Longreach singing the song.

I never tire of hearing or seeing these ads but the earlier version of the choir singing in Kings Canyon is awesome❤
