I remember a moment when the Prince went back to his old school, Grammar School in Melbourne, and slightly to his horror his old music teacher produced a cello.
When I was 16 I had a table at home in Melbourne and I hardly ever practised.
When I was 23, I went backpacking around Australia for three months. I saved up a few grand, quit my job and flew to Sydney, then went to Melbourne and up the East Coast, which was an incredible experience. I remember running out of money and getting my mum to send me a few hundred quid, which helped me get by.
Melbourne City is an awesome city. You can get everything: You can get open air. You can get city life. You can get cafes and bars. I started comedy here; I lived here for 10 years. I went to university here. This is my home ground.
I love Australia! I got a boot thrown at me there.
I would love to do well one last time in Melbourne and my dream would be to win Wimbledon and play in the London Olympics.
I played piano for cabaret stars and stuff and then eventually moved from my hometown of Perth in Western Australia to Melbourne, and somewhere in there, I decided to book myself a room and do a cabaret show of my own material.
He's very, very well-known. I'd say he's world-famous in Melbourne.
Australia is the place I know best.
At first I moved from Sydney to Melbourne, because most of the comedy was shot in Melbourne, and then from Melbourne to Los Angeles - and you have to sacrifice stuff.
I really miss Melbourne food; Melbourne is very snobbish about their caffe culture, and I feel like I've become a snob, too.
The most special Slam is Wimbledon, of course. But where I feel the best is Melbourne. And you're happy that you're playing. When you get to the middle of the season, everything is week after week, and it's all routine. But when it's Melbourne in January, you are fresh and you want to play. It's nice.
Almost everything I operated was in Melbourne and Perth, but in the end, I just couldn't bear the thought of leaving. Sydney is my home.
Melbourne is the kind of town that really makes you consider the question 'Is there life after death?
Get Miramax to send me down to Australia. I'd like to see it.
And always Melbourne, Melbourne, Melbourne, over and over the same photo in glaring greens and reds, of a tram, huffy, blunderous, manoeuvring itself with pole akimbo round the tight corner where Bourke Street enters Spring.
I didn't see much besides Melbourne and a quick trip down to the Twelve Apostles, but all the Aussies I encountered were good-spirited and had a fine sense of humor.
Chicago's like Melbourne - there's a city center, there's public transport, and there's more of a cultural scene.
I don't pay attention to Australia, mate.
I was good at football and cricket at school. My dad said, 'Son, be an architect,' and I came to Melbourne passionate about becoming an architect.
I've been to Australia a couple of times, but never to the north or the centre. I would love to see Ayers Rock.
Australia was great. I would advise anybody to go there. In fact, if you couldn't live here, Australia would be the place to live. It's the most Americanized country that I've ever seen in the world.
After going to Australia, it's hard to go anywhere after that. I want to move there. I'm obsessed with it.
I grew up in Melbourne.
While Melbourne and Sydney fight about who wears Australia's cultural crown, Canberra just gets on with it.
