      @@karinaberry146 I was really happy when I saw the song, as I've listened to it before, and I actually started crying listening to the song during the exam. 😂
      I also performed Zero Gravity for my Music 1 HSC performance exam, and the markers nearly started crying while smiling.

      Ewa Kiełpińska
      Now the land is bare and brown
      And the wind blows empty cross the plains
      I have walked these plains for the whole memory of my soul
      And the soul of my mothers
      And the soul of my father's father
      We have been the life of these plains
      Ghosts on these plains
      The wind once full
      The grass once green
      There were plants in our hands
      That time seems so long ago
      Now
      Where is the rich dark earth, brown and moist?
      Where is the smell of rain,
      Dripping from gum trees?
      Everything familiar is gone
      Everything I counted on
      I can't run, I can't swim away
      From this land
      Where is the rich dark earth, brown and moist?
      Where is the smell of rain, dripping from gum trees?
      Where are the billabongs , the long legged birds?
      Where are the rivers?
      They used to flow clear,
      Now they're eaten by mud
      Who will save us? From the rabbits?

      The HSC supervisors looked at me weird during reading time as I nearly jumped from my seat in excitement as I saw her name next to the song. I did however do a little jump, kick my legs and smiled a lot though.
      My friends were saying before the exam that "I bet you something like Caitlin's song Zero Gravity will be played," and it's funny that they were practically right.
      I sung the song Zero Gravity for my HSC Performance exam, and have listened to a lot of her other songs.
