I Am Australian (Album Version) - The Seekers - MP3 instrumental karaoke

"I Am Australian" is the ultimate song of Australian pride and identity. Penned in 1987 by Bruce Woodley of Australian folk-pop greats The Seekers and Dobe Newton of The Bushwackers, "I Am Australian" is packed full of nods to Australian culture, history, and tradition; from the "digger" to "Ned Kelly on the run". The lyrics come to a head in the song's rousing chorus ("We are one / But we are many / And from all the lands on earth we come / We'll share a dream / And sing with one voice / I am, you are, we are Australian"). Over the years, "I Am Australian" has been used to soundtrack a whole range of prestigious national events, from the 1994 Australian rules football grand final—where it was sung by The Seekers—to the 1999 Australian republic referendum, and in April 2020 as part of the Australian Broadcasting Corporation COVID-19 National Sing-along campaign, which featured celebrities such as Olivia Newton-John.
