Australian plebiscite, 1977 (National Song)
As an additional question in the 1977 referendum, the voters were polled on the tune of which song they would prefer to be used to mark occasions where a particularly Australian national identity was desired. Voting on this question was not compulsory. This was the third plebiscite to be held in Australia, following two regarding military service in 1916 and 1917.〔''Electoral Pocketbook (includes 2004 federal election results)'' (June 2005) Media and Communication Section.

==Background==
Prior to 1974 "God Save the Queen" was Australia's national anthem. In 1974 the Whitlam government performed a nationwide opinion survey, conducted through the Australian Bureau of Statistics, to determine the song to be sung on occasions of national significance. "Advance Australia Fair" was chosen and was enshrined as the national song, to be used on all occasions excepting those of a specifically regal nature.
In January 1976 the Fraser government reinstated "God Save the Queen" for royal, vice-regal, defence and loyal toast occasions, and made plans to conduct a national poll to find a song for use on ceremonial occasions when it was desired to mark a separate Australian identity.
