    This is mostly for the Aussies out there. Why are there two "Waltzing Matilda" songs? There is the orginal version, and then there is the Victorian version. They are kind of different, but still have the same chorus and are named the same.

    3 "Waltzing Matilda"
    Not the National Anthem of Australia, as often thought. This poem and song are very dear to the heart of Australians and this quiz is about the original words that Banjo wrote.
