Dear Nancy,
'They' (the kid singers) are doing the same thing to our national anthem,
"Advance Australia Fair" (no, it is NOT "Waltzing Matilda") at most public
functions here.
Usually using a fractured assumed North American accent!!!
Very kind regards,
Bill.
PS: You've opened up an old (how OKOM tunes should be played) thread too. Look
out there.
