LOL, yes, I did in fact see this ceremony, and I remember we were all very excited that it was so close to home. I live about four hours away from Sydney - in Australian terms we're practically neighbours. But I was only about three or four at the time, and I don't remember it very well. Recently I started watching the opening ceremony again and discovered that my memories of it were actually nicer than the real thing in some ways. But yeah, I know the songs etc pretty well.

Hm, well, considering I don't know a single word in the American national anthem (no wait, yes I do... I read it in a book somewhere. 'Oh say can you see by the dawnzer lee light'? It was from the perspective of a five year old who thought that a dawnzer was some kind of lamp, so I'm not sure how accurate that is. Then again, this is America we're talking about. They call thongs flip-flops. I wouldn't be surprised if lamps were dawnzers. xD) I would think it's a little bit creepy.... but then I know that Australia is the best country ever, so like.... yeah. xD I mean, if you were going to be obsessed with any country it would be this one. Humble brag. :D And I know both verses off by heart too. xD I also know all four verses of Waltzing Matilda. LOL.
