00:00We're seven, we're Brisbane, from the mountains down to the sea
00:13Yeah, she's the city we love, she's the best in the world
00:17And there's no place I'd rather be
00:22We're seven, we're Brisbane, cause you mean the world to me
00:30We like to cry, we're seven, we try, there's no place I'd rather be
00:38We're seven, we're Brisbane, on shore for the world to see
00:53And a friendlier pace puts a smile on my face
00:58It's the one place I can be free
01:01Love you, Brisbane, cause you mean the world to me
01:10We like to cry, we're seven, we try, there's no place I'd rather be
01:18Goodbye
01:19Love you, Brisbane
01:35Yes, you mean the world to me
01:41The people, the places, the sights and the faces
01:45There's no place I'd rather be
01:49Love you, Brisbane
01:52Love you, Brisbane
02:00became an anthem for the city
02:02It went to number one on the charts without even playing on radio
02:05It got into people's hearts
02:07I mean, they're wandering around doing housework, preparing dinner, whatever
02:11and they can hear, love you, Brisbane
02:12And it's such a singable tune that it does get in and it stays in
02:16Kim is now a music teacher and performs in clubs around South East Queensland
02:21and still gets requests for Love you, Brisbane
02:23Yes, I performed it this morning
02:25And all the audience sang along, they loved it
02:28Okay, Love you, Brisbane, take one, roll it
02:31There've been countless remakes over the years
02:33Love you, Brisbane
02:35Even a pop version
02:38Love you, Brisbane
02:39You mean the world to me
02:45There's something about you
02:48I can't live without you
02:50There's no place I'd rather be
02:53We've got me
02:54Love you, Brisbane became so big
02:56It outgrew the city
02:57Love you, Queensland
