| 1277898 | 2012-05-28 06:02:00 | no poll this time :) Does NZ need a new National Anthem. We need something with a much more positive feel, that doesnt sound 150 years out of date . And something that joe average can hit the notes , we arnt all Kiri Te Kanawa I actually like the Maori version better, as I cant understand the lyrics :punk |

| 1277899 | 2012-05-28 06:24:00 | I don't think the words are too bad, just how it is played. The music is too slow, and it should really be sung by a male, not a really high pitched female voice like it's usually sung currently. | Nick G (16709) | ||

| 1277901 | 2012-05-28 06:44:00 | We have a heinous anthem. The least could do is ditch the English version, and rename it "Taniwha,please don't eat Aotearoa (have some cash instead)" |

| 1277904 | 2012-05-28 08:28:00 | I personally see not much wrong with our national anthem except that it may be outdated. Helen Clarke was heard by me to say that New Zealand is a 'multi-religious country'. This means that not all of us are christians. Maybe other religions in this country might object to the reference to God. Remember we have to be PC. | Bobh (5192) | ||

| 1277907 | 2012-05-28 09:06:00 | Don't all religions have some sort of god one way or the other Yes, I think most other religions do have a god which is referred to by another name. Good point. |
