ANZAC Day

In remeberance of those who climed the cliffs of ANZAC cove in 1915 ... and for those who fought in foreign fields, before and since ... For those who never returned, for those who mourn ... and for those who returned, but are forever changed by their experiences.


They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old:
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We will remember them.


"The Green Fields of France" is a song written in 1976 by Scottish-Australian singer-songwriter Eric Bogle, reflecting on the grave of a young man who died in World War I. The video is set to the song the Green Fields of France by the Fureys. The Fureys sing this song live.
