I passed my college days rumbling about bleak future of youngsters than and this song complimented the aggressive thoughts. And yes the Sony Walkman, made life better those days.
Weird moment in what was a disappointing movie but Yahoo Serious trekking across Australia with this song in the background gave me chills. Fun when music moves you in the most unexpected ways!
I'm from Russia and I live in Canada. I have immense respect for Australia and really want to go there one day, especially Adelaide because of a car channel called Garbage Time
The Movie was fun, and I remember watching the credits at the end of the movie and this song came on and I just loved it! Still, remember embers floating around.... a great song!
Thanks Mix106.3 for discovering me this banger way better then the remake. A true classic NEVER goes out of style way better then the remake. A true classic NEVER goes out of style
been a while since you've done this, its very good, great sound quality, love to read the lyrics while its being sung, and although it appears to be is not repetitive, one of australias great iconic and timeless songs, this is one of those ambassador songs for australia. we owe a lot to icehouse....
I'm an Australian and one song that have similar atmosphere for me is a song called a horse with no name by a band called America,that's just as good as this song in my opinion
Did John Farnham ever sing this? If he did, then I'd love to hear it. But if not - I think that would be very understandable. John has always been respectful of other artistes work . Feb '24. UK. E❤
This is not the way that I remember it here.. anyone will tell you it's a prisoner's island.. hidden in the summer for a million years.. maybe you can hear them talking like I do.. xxoo
G'day Good try on an absolute classic but ...CHECK YOUR BLOODY SPELLING...I Hate seeing words like harbour spelled harbor and grey spelled as gray....Enough with the Americanisms on a great Aussie song....
+Rodney McGiveron Totally agree!!... I came to listen and get into the song and discovered that she butchered it by changing the words. So I paused it, and left to find another version with the CORRECT lyrics. +SharC If you are going to accompany an authentic Aussie song with lyrics, then the least you could do is to respect Iva Davies the writer, and leave his lyrics INTACT, AS THEY WERE WRITTEN. Nobody wants you to put your own stamp on it. Otherwise it's called plagiarism, rather than celebrating a great anthem.
Truly stunning how you Australians get accused of being pricks. The guy takes time out of his life so people can hear the song while reading the lyrics and you find fault with his "American spelling." Your first instinct was to give him shit for his good deed while mine was to say thanks. I guess that's just the difference between the American and Australian value system.
Tecnically Rodney McGiveron, harbor IS the correct spelling. But because of the French influence on the english, Poms started spelling words like favor, fervor, harbor and whatnot, with a u. The way Americans spell it, is the more pure form of the english

I am an 52 year young, ex-South African. Those were the best times of my life. One of my favourite bands. Never gets old. Touches the heart!
So proud of my country. This song brings a tear to my eye
its about the vanished Aboriginal culture though, not Australia as we know her today
I'me a very proud Aussie and I love this song, like I love this country, as much as anyone could, I feel it's a part of me.
probably the greatest song ever written from the antipodes.absolutely fantastic lyrics. Iva Davis you're a legend
I feel proud and I am not Australian..
@@somegirl558 I am a sometimes proud and sometimes not NZer.
This is a blessing when pride comes before a fall.

Between this and Solid Rock by Goanna it shows how the eighties birthed some of the best Aussie anthems ever.
The Eighties were a decade of high creativity in music quite everywhere.

Australia is so cool. I can’t think of any songs about America that evokes this feeling.

@@aaronfranklin6863 Fair enough- I reckon it's easier to romanticize a country you don't live in
a wicked cool song about evolution and nostalgia.....
Nice🎉🎉

Rodney, perhaps you would have liked it better in Japanese? Remember, he was coming south. Huzzah for Americanism in 1942 old boy.
what a fuckin' crybaby
All for a lying witness not even a God like the creator he's the maker
Lies on lies they do to this day
Perspective
Prophetic words Australia are we going to let them take us over?
Who the hell is "them"? Typical nationalist paranoia
