"Living in a land down under.
Where women glow and men plunder.
Can't you hear, can't you hear the thunder?
You better run, you better take cover!" [from the Song Down Under by Men at Work]
No one in Australia calls it 'down
under' this
is embarrassing, and it is what the
American's say. Comment by: mate Rated:1/5
Absolutely correct. It is American
slang for
Australia. No one said Aussies use it.

No one in New Zealand calls you this
either, or us for that matter. aussie is
"west island" :D Comment by: Jimmyjoe
So what do you Ozzies call us?
Antipodeans? Tell me we're not
Pommies...
;-) Incidentally, what about that song
from
?Men at Work? that talks about "a land
down under?" Comment by: dbeierl
"Down Under" is an advertising slogan by
the Aussies for the Yanks, but its not
actively used in Oz 'cept for the
tourists Comment by: Bluey Rated:2/5
What bullshit that Australians don't use
the
term, ever heard of a small Australian
band
called Men at Work and their famous song
that became, the unofficial Australian
anthem throughout the 80's and 90's
called
"Downunder".I come from the land
downunder! Comment by: Aussie Mike
