A Community to talk about Music from the Australian perspective.

Telling stories of Australia through music.

With few exceptions, Australian acts are permitted to have one hit in the US charts, then fall out of the international limelight.

Those acts however often have lots of other cool songs!

There are also several Australian acts that just aren't famous globally.

[update] Results are in!


It's time for us to nominate our /c/rage's Lemmyvision 3 song!

Over the past few weeks, our community has submitted nominations, and we have until 3rd May to pick a winner. Our Lemmyvision representatives @Gorgritch_umie_killa and @zero_gravitas have again delegated our election to an independent agency, the Aussie.zone Eureka Commission (AEC).

Anyone who has recently commented a few times on aussie.zone before today is allowed to vote. (This includes, for example, various Australians on other instances)

This election uses preferential Instant-Runoff Voting^[wiki]^ just like our federal elections. Put simply, this means that if your [1] choice has no chance of election, your vote then moves over to your [2] choice, and so on.


Here are the entries. Please listen to them all before voting:


Here is the ballot template for you to fill in. Copy and paste it as a new reply to this post, and number ALL boxes from 1 to 10 in order of your choice. [1] is your preferred choice, [10] is your least preferred.

I'm not 100% sure this is okay. The main artist is aussie, but it features Colombian-American artist Soltera. I don't know the word on featured artists.

It looks like OpenStreetMap has them listed as a garden, which I think makes sense: https://www.openstreetmap.org/query?lat=-33.887330&lon=151.199083

It's a lot of fun, and I'm sure the international Lemmyvision audience would get a kick out of it!

Tell us, commander, what do you think?

'Cause we know that you love all that power

Is it on then, are we on the brink? We wish you'd all throw in the towel

We'll not fade out too soon

Not in this finest hour

Whistle your favourite tune

We'll send a card, and flower

Saying it's a mistake

It's a mistake

Dracula, Tame Impala - yt

Dracula, Tame Impala - Spty

Released 26th September, 2025

Please put the release date of a song your nominating in the post, it was fairly time consuming searching and checking song release dates last year. Thanks! :)

Please note, LOTE Australian songs as pertains Aboriginal language songs look like they can be entered in addition to the most popular choice of song.

For the second edition, lemmy.ca was allowed to send three songs, each one in a different language (French Canadian, English, and Inuktitut, in their case). This means your community can send multiple songs if you want to showcase its different languages!
