I'm Indian Australia, full respect to my aboriginal brothers we've got a lot to do as a nation to heal. We're in this together as one, Australians forever 🖤💛❤
Thanks SO much for this. Made me cry, especially when you mentioned Les Griggs name. He was my husband and he spoke about being taken away long before the term 'Stolen generation' came into being. RIP Les. Well done!
Much like our Aboriginal Brothers and Sister, they did the same to us Native Americans too...they took so much away, our languages, our identities that still ripples to this day. Love to my Aboriginal kin...😢 ✊🏽 Stand Strong.
This is not just a song. It's a call for reparation, an assertion of the rights of indigenous people, and as forceful a statement as i can imagine. Trust Briggs to say what others fail to say, I'm a white English pensioner and this hits me straight to the heart. Every country has skeletons in the cupboard. We need to bring them out and acknowledge the mistakes of the past and NEVER EVER go there again. Love Briggs
What dont they get...? They have access to all the shit whites do, we see their stuff all the time, they got a sorry.. have access to make rap music even.😂😂 the fact they arrived just like the whites is funny, blood tests show Indian and Asian heratige as they travelled here just like white folks did.
I've had the privilege and honour of sitting down and yarnin to Briggs and Trials. That memory will forever sit with me. That moment where they gave a no name, nothing young indigenous man there time, is a testament to who they are. 'Ain't none below, Ain't none above me' Love ya brother, keep fighting the good fight. You are making a change and NEVER doubt that.
The love, memory and respect in this song just shines out. this is music that really, really matters. Briggs is a maste. If this world has a conscience he has my vote every time.
This song hel0ed me fight for my kids back from the system never gave up when I did feel like it I listened to this 3 years later clean and got both kids back and full time job working for a indigenious company never looked back
I'm American, working class, white, male -- and incrediibly moved by this music & video. Thank you to all in the studio & the video, and especially to Mr Briggs. However, my sole friend in Australia could not explain the meaning (although I can guess) at the double-taps & double-slaps at the heart. Any illumination is welcome. And mainly, thanks again.
Yeah Satan, he knows us, but he don't pay no mind. . Cause I'm One for all and all for one. He ain't the only one., yeah. NOW, I'd appreciate it if you keep the fires burning. faith. Trust. We can't get led up, nor down no garden paths. We cut the roads roun' ere. Blessed.
The children are our future.This song will become an anthem once again.Proud of the first people of this great land.A history that needs to be taught in school and the truth. told for the first time.Thank you Briggs,
There is something so positive and uplifting about this song Despite not being an indigenous person I want so much to march with the children back to their people
And he sez he is a MAINLANDER. And he sez he is FROM THE BELLY. And he sez He is black. I am black. Lol. ALWAYS WAS HERE. ALWAYS WILL BE HERE. BEING 🖤 💕 We are still in tune with the creation. We are at the peak of evolution. We have always been. Our gods have always been. Knowing. No foolery will befall us. Man if he was to be so kind, would only do well to serve us. #83 #89
♥️💛🖤We so love your work & passion Briggsy and your take on this superb song by the late Uncle Archie… my son’s Aboriginal Liaison Officer picked this song for the FN’s kids at his Primary School in Darwin to sing for the Reconcilliation Assembly. He arrived home so excited to sing it and show me and made me cry as, little did he know, when I was really young, growing up in Melb’s, I used to go and see Archie and P.K and other mob sing in old pubs in Fitzroy & Brunswick… such a beautiful legacy! (And we love the late Dr G too who I always played to my son when his Dad was away and he couldn’t have his Dad play the guitar to him so he fell asleep)💜💜💜🎶🎵😌
Good morning hope things are cool on the Big Island of Australia was just going through your post and deleting all my negative comments from yesterday hope you have a good day
snake oil willy afternoon for you hey it's like 5-6 pm ?? Don't stress .. Hey this Briggs is one of Australia's new up an coming talents !! As soon as I heard him when he first came out .. I knew he was gunna hit the charts what ya think ?? In the clip a lot of well known faces so he just getting better and better he just won two awards .. Which is pretty huge over here ..
What a great song, shades of TISM's Greg The Stop Sign, a truly great Australian unappreciated song, this song goes a step further than just a great song and represents a feeling and an emotion, not only a great tune but depth deserving to have much more than a sad 268 likes, and the one dislike just goes to show that you can't win them all. I see a big future for Briggs and this song may be the one that takes him there. Thanks Briggs for sharing your thoughts and paying homage to those that deserve.
Thank you Briggs. Well done, particularly celebrating those of Aboriginal descent who have help put Australia and their particular teams in the "headlines" It is really necessary that ALL Australians celebrate our country and it's culture going back so many years (60-70K ++ ?). As a fully fledged members of the HUMAN race we have something to really think about; and be proud of. Let us all join together for the good of this great land (and stop selling it offshore!) Keep it up!
This is absolutely beautiful , sad & uplifting all at same time. This should be our anthem. What amazing talent we have amongst our people - thank you for this song.
I would love to see who is with me in the middle of the Venn diagram that features fans of Archie Roach's original song and also fans of Brigg's and this part 2 of the song? Amazing song!
I'm Indian Australia, full respect to my aboriginal brothers we've got a lot to do as a nation to heal. We're in this together as one, Australians forever 🖤💛❤
Thank you brother, I'm glad you happy to recognise us ,
#RESPECTBROTHER# 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🖤💛❤️
Nah you Australian bruss🤙
Your an Aussie now mate
Your just Australian brother
"We both un-settled when the boats came" Is such a great double lyric
And so true how this country runs on double standards
Deadly but the whole song is beast
Best lyrics, and soooo true ❤️
Thanks SO much for this. Made me cry, especially when you mentioned Les Griggs name. He was my husband and he spoke about being taken away long before the term 'Stolen generation' came into being. RIP Les. Well done!
Megan Evans ❤️
ok sure
So sad how many countries can say they've got a stolen generation sickening. Always was always will be
Megan evans Keep strong 🙏
U b strong my dad was taken away to he rip now but their spirits r with us hey
Much like our Aboriginal Brothers and Sister, they did the same to us Native Americans too...they took so much away, our languages, our identities that still ripples to this day. Love to my Aboriginal kin...😢 ✊🏽 Stand Strong.
Rest in Power Archie Roach! You will not be forgotten
thanks for recognizing my uncle.
🖤💛❤️ the one and only live gig I’ve been to was to Uncle Archie’s and went by myself. Spoke to Uncle most of the night when he wasn’t singing 🎶 🙏🏽
This song was played as we laid our father down to rest,he absolutely loved this song so do i.
Edit:dad was stolen generation.
So sorry for your dad. I have stolen generation family to. It so hard for them to talk about it. Stay bless brutha
💔Us too… my son’s Granny Mary from The Kimberley was named after The Mary River where they stole her from!😢
"We both unsettled when the boats came"
Very nice burn
Adam Briggs: as inspiring as Adam Goodes, Patrick Mills, Cathy Freeman et al. Keep providing a voice!
Adam Goodes is a absolute clown
So why are you watching this, ay?
Dylan Whitton fuck you
cathy freeman :)
@@Dibz0619 Probably couldn't even kick a ball your self, fuckin idiot
Can't understand why your not worldwide famous yet. The best australia has to offer in my opinion

This song is forever growing stronger
BRIGGS✊🏽
I’m Assyrian Australian and stand by my Aboriginal brothers forever ❤️💛🖤
❤

There's a lot of emotions in this song; let's work together as Australians to make this country more beautiful than we met it. Thank Briggs.
Still makes me cry. Youll never be forgotten Uncle Archie
Awesome and big respect to this oldest living culture on planet.
+john smith Actually the Ancient Nubians of Sudan/Egypt are the oldest civilization in human history.
Emmanuel Lado Nah mate, I think you'll find that Indigenous Australians are the oldest culture on earth.
Well you better go do a little more research , we recently found evidence of our people dating back further then we thought
Manny Lado Check out a book called "Dark Emu, Black Seeds: Agriculture or Accident?" by Bruce Pascoe.
The love, memory and respect in this song just shines out. this is music that really, really matters. Briggs is a maste. If this world has a conscience he has my vote every time.
Man I love Briggs. Proud Yorta Yorta man, Renaissance man, Australia's most important (and best) rapper and lyricist.

This song hel0ed me fight for my kids back from the system never gave up when I did feel like it I listened to this 3 years later clean and got both kids back and full time job working for a indigenious company never looked back
Why anyone would dislike this is beyond me. Makes me cry every time I listen to this. Thank you Briggs
Tony Abbott and his mob probably :)
This dude's the real deal. He does a lot of good for what he stands for.
Best song ever!!!!! Long live Briggs. I'm very happy to have watched this.
True leader now Briggs. Much respect and all the best to ya. For all the people this one.

It’s about your heart, indigenous people hearts are about their land. Also proud of their skin colour.
@@kevinseng8288 Thank you Kevin. I understand this. I'm curious as to the specifics of why these particular gestures in this sequence.
Yeah Satan, he knows us, but he don't pay no mind. .
Cause I'm One for all
and all for one.
He ain't the only one., yeah.
NOW, I'd appreciate it if you keep the fires burning.
