🇦🇺🇨🇦 "We Are Australian" by The Seekers - A CANADIAN Reacts to ICONIC Australian Anthem 🇦🇺🇨🇦

Today I’m reacting to one of the essential pieces of Australian cultural DNA: “I Am Australian” (also known as “We Are Australian”), made famous by The Seekers. A mate/subscriber told me this song is the kind of thing every Aussie knows—and… yeah. I get it now. This one hit me like a freight train: proud, emotional, and weirdly familiar as a Canadian. It honestly reinforced my growing theory that Australia and Canada are cut from the same cloth—different landscapes, similar spirit. 🍁🤝🦘 ❤️ Music reactions can’t be monetized the usual way, so if you want to help keep the channel alive and growing: You being here matters.
