00:05Black and white lights flicker on a Saturday night
00:10Living room dreams in a soft TV glow
00:16From every small town to the city lights
00:21A brand new sound was starting to grow
00:26Kids with hope and a song in their hands
00:31Waiting for a chance, just one little break
00:37When the curtain rose on the bandstand
00:43History was ready to wake
00:48From the suburbs to the world stage bright
00:53You could feel it coming alive
00:57We're on the bandstand, hear the beat go round
01:03Young hearts dancing to a brand new sound
01:10From 58 to 72, the music played just right
01:15On the bandstand, shine and stars took flight
01:24Aussie voices finding their way
01:29First time heard across the land
01:35One hit wonder or a lifetime dream
01:39All began on that famous stand
01:45From far off shores they came to sing
01:51World-class names one by one
01:55Sharing the stage, sharing the flame
01:58Under the same bright studio sun
02:02Different accents, one sweet song
02:05Music told us we belong
02:11On the bandstand, see the magic start
02:16Every note straight from the heart
02:22Local legends, global names
02:27All part of the same refrain
02:29On the bandstand, memories still play
02:33In black and white
02:36In yesterday
02:42Spinning records, dancing feet
02:48Teenage dreams on repeat
02:51Before the world went fast and loud
02:57Those moments made us proud
03:07Time rolls on
03:10But the echoes stay
03:12Every melody still rings
03:17In the stories told
03:21Songs we play
03:23You can hear what the past still sings
03:28Find all the best and where it all began
03:32For every girl and every man
03:40A golden age of silver screen
03:43The heart of Aussie music sings
03:45On the bandstand, forever stand
03:50A living part of this great land
03:55So do you know
