Great to watch this. I saw her live last Friday night and its hard to believe just how far her voice has come. If you have the chance, check out her singing "carry you" or songs from the albumn that is about to drop. She has matured so beautifully.
It's been a long time since I listened to this one! She was the IT girl in the Australian music scene in the 2000s. I was at this Festival, by the way...
A back story about Wave Aid….. On 26th December 2004 there was a Tsunami, king wave that killed more than a quarter of a million people in 14 different countries around Indonesia. It was a result of an earthquake in the Indian Ocean with a magnitude of about 8.8 to 9. I remember that day well… we had taken our small boat out and had a skiing trip at our local beach, about 20 minutes from my home. My youngest was still 2 at the time so I was mostly looking after him on the shore. All of a sudden the tide rose so fast (which is unusual in the South West of Western Australia). It rose so fast that there were whirlpools near the rocks. We threw everything back on the boat and headed home early for the day. I was relieved, until I heard on the radio that the Tsunami had occurred. Indonesia is one of the closest neighbouring Countries for our State. It was such a sad thing to occur. RIP to all of those souls lost, and my very sincere condolences to their families and friends. This concert was on 29th January 2005, as a fundraiser for those countries. It raised an incredible $2.3 million dollars in aid.
In my generation, nearly everyone in Australia knew at least the chorus.

Wow, very cool.

Wow. From what I've seen, every performance was magic.
I enjoyed your physical reaction - it looked liked it took at least a decade off your years!
