Advance Australia Fair
Advance Australia Fair was adopted as the National anthem of Australia on 19 April 1984.
The original version of 'Advance Australia Fair' was written by Peter Dodds McCormick in 1878.
Prior to 1984, Australia's national anthem was the Royal anthem God Save the Queen. The Labor Party sought to change this to reflect a more "Australian" anthem, as it consolidated its independence from England. A national ballot was held, and Advance Australia Fair was the winning choice.

"Advance Australia Fair" is the national anthem of Australia. It is a patriotic song that celebrates the beauty and culture of Australia, as well as its people and history. It was officially adopted as the national anthem in 1984.
After a Public Opinon poll in 1974, the then Prime Minister, Gough Whitlam, announced that "Advance Australia Fair" would be Australia's new National Anthem, the tune suggested and favoured by his wife Margaret. This change was short-lived and we returned to "God Save the Queen". A further National Poll in 1977 chose "Advance Australia Fair" as the new National Anthem again, with 2.9 million votes. Finally, "Advance Australia Fair" was proclaimed as the new Australian National Anthem on the 19th of April, 1984.
