I'm not Australian (mate!), but I believe the correct pronunciation of the city of Melbourne is closer to mel-bern, or even mel-bun, than mel-borne. I'm trying to imagine how Olivia Newton-John says it. I shudder a bit whenever I hear someone pronounce the -bourne part the same way they would pronounce The Bourne Identity. I think even Alex Trebek of Jeopardy!, who otherwise seems very conscious about correctly pronouncing things, has said it incorrectly.
