Judy Durham is in her 70s now and we won't have her with us much longer. I met her years ago at the Monsalvat Jazz Festival. Singing jazz was her true love.

Her voice was so pitch-perfect, I still listen in awe at the relaxed way she hits notes without faltering. She is also a genuine, beautiful person.

We in Aus. had the anthem referendum years ago and ended up with the stodgy and disjointed, 'Advance Australia Fair'.

If a popular vote were held today, this song, I think. would prevail.
