@@andrewkonopik Are you that stupid? we were ravaged by some of the worst bushfires ever seen in Australia that killed several and changed the lives of many. Then severe flooding followed that which made rebuilding impossible. People lost everything and are still recovering. Nothing to do with the government. Stupidity is ripe with you.
Two of the kindest, most genuine people you could ever meet. So talented and so humble....Australian treasures. Colin your music, your voice has touched the souls of so many of us - thankyou. Delta I will never forget the kindness you showed to my daughter....both absolute legends.
Almost 48 years since I wrote the words for this song in the back of your Kombi Colin. Remember the date 26th May 1972 at the Great Western Festival at Bardney Lincolnshire UK. Just like yesterday.
@@henrymcvey6538 oh yeah that's right they lived right next door to those two sisters April and June in the neighbourhood of Hornswoggle... So they're all Hornswogglians!
I think this song touched a lot of people’s hearts well before this, but this version is so beautiful because it’s 2 Australian icons, doing their thing, from their own homes during covid lockdown and absolutely turning one of Australia’s favourite songs into an anthem for ‘we will get through this!’ I watched it live from home when they released it during a fundraiser, and it gets better every time. I love this country!
Mr Hay, from a fellow Scot, your voice is as good as ever and also the amazing guitar playing. Delta, what a voice and piano playing. Brilliant..... Stay safe........Andy.
Dear Colin, i want to thank you for having accompanied me from my childhood until today with your wonderful songs and your wonderful voice. You are entrusted with the sweet memories fo my life. A big hug and a warm greeting from Italy, we love you
This is so much a man's song, but Delta and Colin so beautifully nail this song in a way that makes me love their version more than the original version I heard so many decades ago. It makes me again wonder why so many people I know hate "cover" songs.
This is the best Covid concert song, Delta release this this as your next single, great Aussie song showing our great Aussie spirit no matter what colour or race....proud to say I live in Australia
Always loved this song. But Delta I have never heard any of you songs before but you did this beautifully , FABULOUS.. Well done Colin. Thank you both.
Why can't I click like more than one time? This was fantastic. wish they would record it so I could listen to oi in better quality and outside of TH-cam. I have no idea how many times I have seen this one, but it is a few times now...
Never in a million years did I ever think this song could be made into a beautiful ballad. Superb. Bucket list. Must see these two live when it becomes possible.
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE record this in the studio! Colin this song is an anthem for many but for myself being the firstborn of European migrants from the early 60s this song became the bridge for my emerging identity as I was growing up. Delta your voice is a vessel that takes me on a journey. Thank you thank you thank you.
My chillbumps have goosepimples. What an amazing retelling of a classic song, with two brilliant voices intertwining in such beautiful harmony. Just fantastic. Hope this note finds you healthy and happy, Colin and Delta. You've inspired me infinitely this morning. Bless you. ❤️
Oh lol, I feel sorry I didn't knew Colin's name, just realised who he is when he started singing. This is pure class and musicianship, two masters at work.
Some of the best harmonizing ever. Goosebump territory. 2 Aussie legends being awesome 😎😎😎😎😎. Colin was born in Scotland moved here as a child and is a proud Scott. Kinda makes him very Australian.
Who just thinks there voices together are amazing - Super Stars - From a Australian 9 year old Perth - I love delta songs also good job on the voice stellar was amazing I voted her 👍🏻
This piece is immortal as the soul of whoever wrote it. For the rest, all loving and with great company and warmth. Thanks to you who bring the music to the high level it deserves.🕊🕊🕊🦘🦘🦘🦘🦘🦘
The power of a musical composition shows when it is stripped down of production.. Buck Dharma from Blue Oyster Cult has said that from the moment he conceived the main theme of ''Don't fear the ripper'' he knew he had something great..this is one of these cases...Beautiful performance
You've gone and made me tear up way to early on a Thursday morning, Sandy. But there's no hoping to it - I KNOW he is playing along. You can hear it in the love these two exude as they sing. Bless you, my friend. ❤️
A lot of recordings fail to stir my emotions these days. Here's an exception. It's the combination of: a classic Aussie Song; an 'unplugged' version; honest emotion; the coming together of generations; excellent syncing in that situation, and of course the outstanding quality of both vocals. Australian talent at it finest. Turn it up!
Wonderful duet Colin and Delta, superb live performance from you both.You are still doing Scotland proud Colin, you are a brilliant live performer, I saw you in Glasgow last year.
Two absolute legends of music. More talent than you could poke a stick at. Awesome to see Colin going so well. 👍 And Delta can do no wrong. Love you Delta ! 💖💖💖
I’ve always been a fan of delta and this song. I heard it on the 9 news ad first and took me a while to figure out who sang it! I love how delta doesn’t try to out sing Collin she respects it’s his song and waits her turn or sings behind him majority of the time and it’s beautiful. I can imagine this as a beautiful tribute to all the Aussie fire fighters and Aussie’s who lost so much this year
Thank you both for this. So glad this version exists. Amazing. Someone mentioned recording this together in a studio setting but this is so much like performances that occur on AGT and other programs. The original performance is so much better than the "perfectly engineered" one produced later. Something gets lost in the attempted perfection.
I love that the most famous Australian song is written and sung by a Scottish man.
All of Australia's best songs are written by Scottish men - I give you AC/DC.
Colin wrote the music. I wrote the words Paul. I have the first original copy of the lyrics with me.
Hardly the most famous Australian song ever 🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️
@@frankmay9000 and he's an american citizen, the elephant in the room, just saying
@@cathypriebbenow778 i prefer the seekers we are australian
Colin that was special. Please record a version of this with Delta at studio quality and get it online so we can hear it properly. Your voices work.

My god these are their most amazing voices ever they just blend so well

Colin Hay has one of the best voices ever... He is on a level with guys like Sting, Gilmoure etc....
The rawness is what makes it
The moment that this song touched Australia.
The moment that this song touched my heart :P.
Who touched who and when is the Royal Commission?
It touched Australia when it was released cobba
Vote NO
This song has always been iconic and I was massively sceptical of a ballad version of it but they really did great
This song needs to be in the charts again. I love this version of it.
THIS IS THE MOST BEAUTIFUL COVER I HAVE EVER HEARD IN MY ENTIRE LIFE! YOU CAN LITERALLY FEEL THE EMOTION
Can it be a cover if done by the original singer/songwriter?
same
made by the original
Cover???? Its his song?.
Let's go with "version" or recording".
This song was in an Australian ad. It implied the struggle we have been through in 2020. It made me cry. This is a fantastic song.
🤦🏽♂️ what struggle bro? Your gov shut sh*t down and then told ya... "oh poor Australia! 🙄" your government sucks!

I'm not crying, I have dust in my eyes...
I'm pretty sure that i;m crying
Same like it’s just dust ‘wink wink’
😂😂👌
I cried when I heard the first note!!

That’s so true.
Both wonderful people!

Just like yesterday.
Would love to hear more of this Frank, sounds like you could be an unsung hero in this song. Credit due where credit is due.
Frank May... Who the fook is that guy?

How good was that. Colin - always a fan. Delta - I just became one. Love you voice in the lower register, Delta. Wow! What a performance. Thank you.
I agree just with you John. I have always been both of their fans!!
This should be a national anthem 100% The ending is perfect
I feel like I'm decades behind the times with my new Delta Goodrem crush.
I really want this to be on Spotify!👏
Mr Hay, from a fellow Scot, your voice is as good as ever and also the amazing guitar playing. Delta, what a voice and piano playing. Brilliant.....
Stay safe........Andy.
Dear Colin, i want to thank you for having accompanied me from my childhood until today with your wonderful songs and your wonderful voice. You are entrusted with the sweet memories fo my life. A big hug and a warm greeting from Italy, we love you
Delta did a lot of justice to this version love how there voices blend together lovely .rest in peace Greg ham
And the grammy award for best pop duo/group performance goes to...
I always love that "ooh yeah yeah" on the third chorus. Your voice is magic Colin!
Ikr, she is good and all but his voice is from another universe....
Best part of the song, immediately smile 😃
This is so much a man's song, but Delta and Colin so beautifully nail this song in a way that makes me love their version more than the original version I heard so many decades ago.

Lovely. Im 42 yrs old now and its been a fav as far as I can remember!!!! Men At Work!!! Delta Goodrem did a wonderfull job on this too!!!!
Pretty good. Delta Goodrem is a new voice for me. Colin's voice has been in my ears for the last 35 years. You are aging well my man.
Haven't heard Delta's voice for a long time, it's even better than I remembered.
Iconic song, great version
what a beautiful performance of this beautiful song. Thanks for this
After nearly a year later: I need that song as a proper song version. Now. My fav by far
Same here! I just cant enough from it
Who heard this on the ad on channel7 with the fires?
And channel 9
Yeah it’s sad hey, but us aussies are tough bastards!
Yeah. That but at the funeral with the little girl cuts deep

Right before the pandemic.
Great performance. Love you always.

Bravo/Bravi Great version of a classic.
I love this. Delta is incredible as always and Colin Hay has an amazing voice and still looks pretty hot!
Very beautiful 💖 I hope Greg Ham is playing along somewhere out there.
