That's why I said Australasian and not Australian, I was referring to the continent of Australasia and no to the country of Australia. I also forgot AC/DC which I apologise for. On another note the Finn boys mother hails from Limerick. :)

It's Oceania according to FIFA, Australasia according to the Weetabix World Atlas I had in primary school. Now I don't know about you but I'd think twice before badmouthing somebody like Weetabix!!!

As for Radiohead they peaked with 'The Bends' and shot their remaining load with 'Ok Computer'.

Places like Nauru, Micronesia , Palau and Kiribati arent in Australia and arent in Asia so where are they ;)

There's islands in the pacific right? Part of the *australasian continent!!! :p Oceania (if in fact such a place exists is like Scandinavia - a region!

PS) WHo mods this forum again? :D

Australia is on a continental plate and Asia is on a different continental plate. That makes them separate. They are two separate continental plates. They have no connection with each other. this is going to get moved, believe me.

[sadloserkid]

Split the thread now!!!!

:D :D :D

austrailia is an amazing song, under-rated classic imo
great guitar intro :)

[eoinh]

There was a band called Asia as well , they had nothing to do with That song Australia though as they were two toatally different things :D :D .

Heat of the moment was their biggest single. They had members of yes and the buggles in their group. they were from America (again a totally different continent ).
there was funnily enough a group called america who were from england :rolleyes:
big hit "horse with no name". Horses orginally came from asia.
the song wasnt really about horses though it was about drugs. :confused:
