Icehouse - Great Southern Land

"Anyone will tell you its a prisoner island.
Hidden in the summer for a million years".

This song is the quintessential Australian anthem. I first heard this song in the movie "Young Einstein" which I'd rather forget.

I loved Icehouse, especially this song.  They played this song frequently at the Sydney 2000 Olympic Games as well. I was a volunteer there, and they played Australian music over the PA systems all day.

As of 2006, Man of Colours was still the highest selling album in Australia by an Australian band.
