Rising Seas and this song has me very excited about the forthcoming album. These two songs are so much better than 99% of the songs out today. I really hope people would find these songs and listen to real music like this. Midnight Oil deserves to become huge all around the world once again.
Midnight Oil, keep on fighting the good fight against government oppression, corporate takeover and pollution of our environment. We will win this fight! #Resist
I went to the tarkine not long before this song came out and midnight oils was the cd we had in our car. Now that album is associated with our Tasmania trip.
I love the Tarkine visualizer. and that you guys are still very much in it after 43 years. It's wonderful that you gave us this preview, and I can't wait for your upcoming new release. And I agree that any action that impinges on the beauty, and sanctity of a place such as the Tarkine/Tarkayna forest should not be allowed.
Another new top notch song (together with 'Rising Seas') from one of the greatest Australian bands of all time. The Oils may have decided to call it a day on touring, but the recent announcement did hint that they'll still be writing, recording, and doing shows here and there. For example, I wouldn't be surprised if they were to do a three/four night stand at one venue (perhaps a 1500 seat theatre) in each of the big cities (at a pace more suitable for elder statesmen of rock!) every now and again. Either way, the band are currently writing and recording new material that is comparable in quality to any of their previous work. I am grateful for that.
Thank you for writing that song. It needs to be sung and played over and over again to our politicians so that all of Australia wakes up to the loss and destruction of this and all our other wild places in Tasmania and the rest of Australia. The video is good, because it shows the reality of what's happening. Thanks Midnight Oil! We need more songs like this one and Rising Seas which are focussed on the mess humans are continuing to make of our Planet, and the beautiful places which need help and preservation, like the Mangroves, the Great Barrier Reef, the Wetlands, Kakadu and many others. It's comforting to hear your voices back on the airwaves in this time of environmental crisis. Keep the songs coming. ❤️🌈🐛🦋🦜🌲
Darryl Rogers did a great job putting the video together. He does a lot of great videos, but doing this for Midnight Oil is a first for him. Well done.
So glad to have MO back. Their passion and music tap into the souls of the people that care for the future of our planet. The sound production on this song is amazing. Thank you MO for making great music in a world of crap music.
Indeed. It's one of the only bands that literally tried to do right with the world. So much so that one of them went into office and won! Keep fighting the good fight, Peter!
This is far and away the best song Midnight Oil have put out since the early 90's and the band were right for this to be the first peek at new music when they did it live in 2019.
Our beautiful Mother Earth is so precious, our connection and care for her must be number one. So many lost in the illusion. Come sit under a tree, she has wisdom to impart. Beautiful tune, thank you 💜🕊🌈🕊💜
Boston, June 16. I experienced the energy of an Oils show. I’ve been listening to the new album almost daily. The music touches part of your soul in a way. Thank you
If this is really the final tour, please make it a world tour like 2017, including the States! (But even better, let this NOT be the final tour.)

I understand, but for the sake of climate we could content ourselves with what we've got so far. Az an Oz band fair go they're doing their last round at home. (I'd been checking if there's a way to go to Australia without taking a plane from our island Mindanao, in time for a show, but it's close to impossible, just as taking the train between Europe and South China "as usual".)
"The band also confirmed today that next Friday February 25th, they will announce a handful of June shows in North America and July shows in Europe as part of Midnight Oil’s final tour."
I agree, hoping the Oils continue ON! However, they are doing some dates in the US...I just snagged a ticket to their show in Chicago in June. So excited! Will be my college graduation gift to myself, and 1st time seeing them, despite being a fan since the early 90s.
These guys kick ass. Well done, love it! Makes me weep, what a tragedy of stripping the earth of such beauty! Just a souvenirs is such a poignant lyric
"It's a long way from Chatswood to the top of the gulf I'll be hitching pacific when the morning sun's up" Lovin' The Oils from the 70's to now - was a Chatswood lad when they were in Albert Ave, just a walk to The Charles Hotel!
Good track!. Always loved this band since I bought "Diesel and Dust" all those years ago. I like the Oils going slow on tracks like these, great lyrics to this song.
Another important song of the Oils. Please never stop putting your hand in the wound! It makes me cry to see the trees falling and burning one by one. And it makes me angry to see our planet in the stranglehold of criminals, crooks and liars who only deificate to dollar notes. It is ours to stop them, or we all go down together!

Looking forward to seeing them live in the swan valley Perth Western Australia 🇦🇺
And you can also include ‘Reef’ in that list from Resist
THEY ARE HUGE ALREADY 30 DECADES..😅🤣🤣🤣
Saw the oils in 84..los Angeles and now again 2022..los Angeles again. Blessed
Midnight Oil, keep on fighting the good fight against government oppression, corporate takeover and pollution of our environment. We will win this fight! #Resist
This album is turning out to be an absolute banger so far
Long live Oils! The best band of all times! Cheers from Brazil.
Salve
Australia s best band..period. Always Amazes me how they come up with such great Material.. Aus Most loved band of all time.

I went to the tarkine not long before this song came out and midnight oils was the cd we had in our car. Now that album is associated with our Tasmania trip.

Tarkine Is A Beautiful Great Straight Up Rock N Roll Song By Midnight Oil And A Great Wonderful Masterpiece By The Group.
Thank you for a great song ans lovely pictures! But, Tarkine ist everywhere on Earth!!! Greetings from Germany

My favorite bands speaking for the natural wonders of this world, while making awesome music.
Like Gojira with Amazonia.
You will always live in our hearts and your message too!!! ♥️🌎♥️🌏♥️🌍♥️
Save the Tarkine, please please please!!!
For the Nature
