And fyi, it's not something that is subject to personal preference. It's that song first and gangajang second and icehouse third.
Listened to a few of the songs from the bands you posted and they were pretty good, but I still prefer "Down Under" as the best song. I won't say your wrong because you live in Australia and you obviously know a lot more about the culture and country than I do.
Regarding my ability to obtain Australian citizenship. My mom was born and raised in Australia so she's an Australian citizen. Then skip forward, when I was about 3 or 4 my mom took my sister and I live in Australia for a year (I have no idea why, maybe she missed it). We stayed with her brother who lives in this huge house in Wheelers Hills, Melbourne and I went to school there and everything. I guess seeing we were young and lived there for a while with an Australian parent they allowed us to be citizens.
And I guess having an older sister who competed(she was supposed to compete but ****ed her back up right before the Olympics, so she had to drop out) for Australia in rhythmic gymnastics at the 1996 Olympic games and other international competitions helped too.

Eh? how many national anthems do you have
1 real one that every single person in the country wants to get rid of, and several lining up to replace it.
Deathproof: cold chisel, alongside acdc would easily be australis most iconic band - particularly to Australians.

what's wrong with the one that y'all have?
Currently we've had a couple issues with ours and the inclusion of God or some crap like that. And famous singers get slagged like crazy here because so many of them screw up the song.
