depends on the version, some are in 2/4 as well.
2/4 is effectively 4/4 and neither is a waltz (3/4).
So playing a song in 3/4 is now an homage to Australian bushdance tradition because a song had the name waltz in it? Has anyone told the Austrians? It evokes the memory of the greatest of all Austrian Bush Balladers Johann Strauss II.But the name and imagery of the song specifically refer to Waltzing across the outback. As in, it directly evokes the Australian musical tradition of the bushdance
