Therefore, stone the flamin' crows, cobbers; be proud of your natural, traditional accent and intonation. Stick with it.

Australian female Country and Western singers who insist on emulating their American cousins when they are singing Australian songs
VK3AUU,
I know what you mean. I used to turn the radio/TV off whenever Reg Lindsay came. Years later i felt compelled to to the same when the whimsical/whining KC Chambers was on. Terrible they force such un-talented peoples' voices onto the ears of listeners.

And this is why we should all listen to TISM, the most Aussie of all the Aussie bands.

For a sobering change this is probably as australian as a song & story can get.
I don't suppose it gets played too often at city venues.

When I lived in the USA I found the nasal twang of country (or hill-billy) singers unpleasant. I am disappointed to find Australians imitating it. Maybe Australia will come up with their own Donald Trump. If you wanted a shonky real estate dealer like Donald Trump you could have made Christopher Skase PM. There are better things in the USA to emulate. Unfortunately there are worse things, too, and they seem more attractive.

david f,
I just spoke with a bloke who was good mates with Skase & he told me that Skase was manipulated by people & by the perverted tax system's requirements.
