It brought back a lot of childhood memories.Esp on a Saturday morning waiting for the Australian program called rage.And we would wait for songs to sing and this was one of them
I just discovered it as I live in the US. I recently watched an amazing story about 3 children from Badu island (a place I never knew existed) who survived after being shipwrecked this came up in my recommendations after seeing their story
I always thought she wrote the song but shocked when I found out it is a cover. and written by a white man. It seems so personal. Seems like wants to leave the city where she was born and live in the Torres Strait Islands where grandparents came from. Does she write any songs worth listening to ?
really ? I think it relates more to Torres Straits islanders. Christine Anu's family originated from there. She is from the North Queensland city of Cairns.
I barely remember working on this music video clip as a camera assistant. Simon Smith was the cinematographer and if I remember correctly it was photographed at the now closed studio of Film Australia.
Love it Christina...such a timeless song
All islanders wether Melanesian, Polynesian, Micronesian relate to this song ..

A very sweet peaceful song. 😊
Born in the city away from" her people and family" and feeling "homesick " for the islands.

christine anu is so amazing
yet she has not had a hit since this single " Island Home" almost 30 years ago. She deserves better.
