Is Australia the only country in the world that doesn't know their national anthem?
What do you base this assumption on exactly? I'm Australian, and I know ever single word to my anthem. As do nearly alllllll my peers that I went to school with. And not just first verse, all the verses. AND we know what the words represent, and the significance behind them. Because we were taught it in school. Being patriotic, on MANY an occasion I've both taught the words and the meanings to my colleagues over here in Britain. Because of this I don't see why you'd think that Australian's don't know their anthem, EXCEPT that you've maybe seen a comedy sketch like "Rove" where they go out and test people on whether they know the anthem or not?? However when you compare it to the fact that lots of American's know the "Two all beef patties, special sauce, lettuce, cheese, pickles, onions, on a sesame-seed bun" jingle better than they know their own anthem also, then perhaps its just a human / global thing in general and not limited to one country... Or maybe because our anthem has "technical" words in it like "girt." Many Australians do know their national anthem (mostly the first verse), especially because it is heard sung before AFL etc. matches. Children in school are still taught the national anthem, which they sing regularly at their school assemblies.

Would it be proper decorum for you to sing along with the person who sings the National Anthem?
In formal etiquette, a soloist in any situation should be able to put on the performance without having a chorus join from the audience. However, in large crowds like sporting events, you'd certainly hear people softly joining in. Partly, it's because the rules ARE confusing: Normally, not singing the anthem is a sign of disrespect, so should you sing the words along with the soloist or just listen? So, many people sort of do a mixture of mouthing the words or softly singing. Problem though, many people do not know the words to the National Anthem so people look disrespectful because they are not singing the true anthem.Similar confusion in the US about what situations of the anthem should you put your hand on your heart---- or is it not required? (Many people think just standing in a respectful manner with arms at your sides is okay.) And, of course, people still get confused about hats-- should you remove your hat/cap or not? (Yes.) Should women remove their hats? (Not if a fancy hat--different standards for men and women. But if a baseball cap on a woman, yes, remove it.)Rules used to be set in stone. We need to revive and brush the dust off our use of etiquette.
