John Williamson’s tribute to Steve Irwin

John Williamson

True blue singer John Williamson fought back tears when he sang to a worldwide audience of millions at his mate Steve Irwin’s memorial service.

Flying home after the service, the bush balladeer realised how easily his friend’s precious legacy could be lost … unless like-minded people stepped forward to help fulfil Steve’s conservation dream.

Within hours of the Crocodile Hunter’s emotion-filled farewell, John had penned ‘Wildlife Warriors: It’s Time’, perhaps the most passionate song of his four-decade career.

“[Steve] was a loud, proud Aussie who promoted the wonders of our ancient land with incredible enthusiasm,” says John. “So if my new CD [now available and also called Wildlife Warriors: It’s Time] helps raise more awareness for the Wildlife Warriors’ cause, that’s great!”
