    As an Aboriginal Australian- bloody awesome Pattie Smith!!!!!!!! thank your for spreading the message about Uluru and the heart of all our Dreamings- she is the Mother of us all. Makes me so inspired to hear a a Midnight Oil song delivered like this. Thank you sister.

      This song is a load of crock. No human owns any part of this planet. The planet was here before us and may well outlast us. And as for Ayres Rock, the elements will slowly wittle it away and then it will be known as Ayres Pebble. Have a nice day and ciao for now

    As an Aussie and have been to Oils gigs since 1978 I'm pretty impressed to see the great Patti Smith cover such an iconic song that speaks to the truths of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples struggle. At least 50,000 years of continuous culture in this brilliant land of OZ. Great she's sending the message and it seems she means it too. Oils.

    "Patti set the Oils classic up with a poem about Australia’s toxic destruction of the environment.
    “From the centre of the world,
    down deep in the earth,
    down were the swirl of dreams are made,
    long before the beginning of time,
    the gods formed a great rock that grows through the desert,
    and this rock was ruby in the sun,
    red as blood when the sun smiled upon it,
    and from its essence man created Dreamtime,
    and they slept in its shadows,
    but they did not walk upon it,
    but then the settlers came and the tourists and those who did not believe,
    and they tramped upon it,
    and some fell to their death pulling the red skin of the red rock down into the desert,
    creating the dust of sorry all the way to the sea,
    and beneath the sea, so many leagues beneath the sea,
    Great Barrier Reef, red as blood, red as a ruby,
    until man infused it with his toxics, with oil, with his plastic,
    and choked the life out of it,
    until that great red reef bleached white like the bones of saints in the sun." "

      @THE URANIUM CAFE Hi there. I did not really want to add anything. YT recommended this video to me. Never heard of her before. But her performance here is powerful. The lyrics a cutting reminder. I'm Malaysian. We have the problems of clearing forests for development and displacing our aboriginal peoples without compensating them justly. And we paid for it with forest fires, environmental degradation and contributing towards global warming. I know some regard climate change and global warming is exaggerated and/or fake news, but is real enough in my country and region. Anyway, also since then discovered this song was originally by an Australian band, Midnight Oil. Also discovered Patti Smith's "Horses" among her other works. That is an awesome album, She is a terrific and original artist whose art (music, lyrics and performance) seems timeless. And yeahh...Post Malone and Ariana Grande seems like mere entertainers and poseurs compared to her live performances of real passion and convinction. Not to mention her lyrics/poetry which resonated till today. Cheers
