Yes... she is from the 8th state or territory.... they like to pretend they are their own country across the ditch... but they're really just our 8th state... LOL......well when they do good stuff and are worth claiming as our own.

I think it may have been due to taking @notsmokinjo to task, because she suggested that no decent music came out of NZ in the nineties. Or ever for that matter. I'm paraphrasing naturally, but I'm pretty sure that's the gist of it.

I believe what I said was we (Australia) got beaten in our own top 100 count of the 90's by most of the English speaking word... at least we weren't beaten by the Kiwi's.... but I did my penance with a smile... as per instructions.... lol.... lots of good music has come out of NZ.... well lots of good musos have, they have all just moved here to make it big... the Finn Brothers, Max Merritt and the Meteors... all the Kiwi's come here to have success and then the kiwi's wanna claim em... even if they say they are Aussies now... my theory is if they wont claim Barnaby Joyce then they don't get the good ones like Russell Crowe or the Finns..... I think the kiwi's gave us Dragon too.

So "God Defend New Zealand" has a sh1t load of verses and they usually sing the Maori one then the English one.... to the same tune... its pretty powerful... anyway here are the words...

Aotearoa is the Maori name for New Zealand..

 

E Ihowā Atua,
(Oh Lord, God)
O ngā iwi mātou rā,
(Of nations and of us too)
Āta whakarongona;
(Listen to us)
Me aroha noa
(Cherish us)
Kia hua ko te pai;
(Let goodness) flourish,
Kia tau tō atawhai;
(May your blessings flow)
Manaakitia mai
(Defend)
Aotearoa

 

God of Nations at Thy feet,
In the bonds of love we meet,
Hear our voices, we entreat,
God defend our free land.
Guard Pacific's triple star
From the shafts of strife and war,
Make her praises heard afar,
God defend New Zealand.

 

Men of every creed and race,
Gather here before Thy face,
Asking Thee to bless this place,
God defend our free land.
From dissension, envy, hate,
And corruption guard our state,
Make our country good and great,
God defend New Zealand.

 

Peace, not war, shall be our boast,
But, should foes assail our coast,
Make us then a mighty host,
God defend our free land.
Lord of battles in Thy might,
Put our enemies to flight,
Let our cause be just and right,
God defend New Zealand.

I learnt to sing it for the dawn service.... although when I am at a sport event and they play the kiwi anthem it may be try that I have sung the lyrics...

 

God of dummy, lift the seat

and wash your stinky feet

before you watch Corontaiton Street...

 

But never at the dawn service.

About us

QuitTrain®, a quit smoking support community, was created by former smokers who have a deep desire to help people quit smoking and to help keep those quits intact.  This place should be a safe haven to escape the daily grind and focus on protecting our quits.  We don't believe that there is a "one size fits all" approach when it comes to quitting smoking.  Each of us has our own unique set of circumstances which contributes to how we go about quitting and more importantly, how we keep our quits.
