Cold Chisel is an Iconic Aussie Rock band. Both Ian Moss and Jimmy Barnes both excellent front men for Cold Chisel. Ian is a top class guitarist with a voice as smooth as silk and Jimmy Barnes is our King of Rock with a voice that can rip your skin off. Check out Cold Chisel performing Wild Thing at the Last Stand Concert.... Ian singing Georgia, and Jimmy doing a duet with John Farnham Australia's most popular solo artist sing When Sometging is Wrong with my Baby.
Mate - this is what is called pub rock. You'd go to the local watering hole on a Saturday and pay maybe 5 bucks and get an hour of a new start up band then 2 hours of this. I spent many a weekend at local pubs rocking out to legends like these guys - Skyhooks, Cold Chisel, Australian Crawl, Angels, AC/DC (with Bon out front),Mental as Anything, Hunters and COllectors, damn so many bands - the 70s and early 80s were the best!
Hey Johnny! Welcome to the rabbit hole that is great Aussie music. As Bon75 has pointed out, Cold Chisel’s lead singer is actually Jimmy Barnes (“Barnsey”) but Ian Moss also rips out some killer vocals on a few songs as well as playing lead guitar. So, you wanted more Chisel? Here are a couple of tracks I’m pretty sure you will enjoy. Wild Thing th-cam.com/video/oQ19NWzA8TA/w-d-xo.html and one of my personal favourites (also with “Mossy” on vocals), Georgia - which I think you may recognise as a classic American standard. Georgia th-cam.com/video/NhFXjzRRv4w/w-d-xo.html
Hey Johnny, Welcome to the Cold Chisel rabbit hole. As I've mentioned to other reactors about this song as most of you mentio the Harmonica player. He's not even a member of the band, he's just a guest player for the last 45 years. Gets a gig on most tours and laid down the Harmonica tracks on their 1st album in 1978 so is a mainstay. His name is Dave Blight. Drummer has sadly passed some 12 years ago RIP Steve Prestwich 😢 Check out this song from the 2003 ringside gig along with When the War is Over from same gig, and Wild Thing from the last stand (a link to that was provided earlier in the comments). Cheers and welcome aboard.
To me, as someone who grew up in the country (Australia), the harmonica gives a sound that I use to hear, similar to windmills screeching and tin sheets on a shed....it is just genius to create an atmosphere, as it does for Bow River (which is about the pining for getting out of the city and going back to the Top End). Just brilliant.
Lead singer for the band was Jimmy Barnes most of the time, but this song was mostly sung by Ian Moss. Chisel had the luck to have two equally good front men for the band. Both also had solo careers: Check out "Working Class Man" by Jimmy, or "Tucker's Daughter" by Mossy. As for more Chisel, "Khe Sahn", "Flame Trees", "Cheap Wine", the list goes on.
Johnny you are officially an Australian now. That was Ian Moss on the guitar and the other bloke singing was Jimmy Barnes he is the lead singer you are going to hear a lot more of and about Jimmy Barnes he is a Australian living legend I seen him in concert in '91 & went to see him in concert last year
The best recording of this is on the "Bow River (Ringside Tour)". The Harmonica is really dominant on that recording and is beyond brilliant. Also "When the War is Over" on that same concert (Ringside Tour) is awesome!
One of several Australian bands from that time that had the chance to go to America if they totally changed their sound to something the record companies thought was more American but refused to be bossed around by the big record companies and knocked back the offer
They had a hit song about it "You got nothing I want, You got Nothing I need" The basically told the US record companies to go F themselves and came home!
G’day Johnny, I started going to pubs, in my mid teens, in the early 70’s. There was a great live music scene in Melbourne. Saw many terrific bands back then. Masters Apprentices, The Angels, Radio Birdman and The Sports. Hunters & Collectors is a favourite of mine. The Easybeats, from the 60’s, were fantastic. So many more great Aussie bands to become acquainted with. Go Blues.
2003 ringside version is by far better than this one, but still glad you discovered our boys and enjoyed it! Check out some early Cold Chisel such as You Got Nothin I want or Wild thing
It's a real shame that you chose this version which Is from two different performancers stuck together. If you want to hear this song at it's best you need to check out Cold Chisel Bow River Live Ringside 2003.
Thanks for reacting to these legends, should check out the ringside 2003 version of this song it’s on another level. Check out “when the war is over” next 2003 ringside live version please
I do a lot of remote work, and when I start singing this song I know it's time to head home. It has the same emotion as John Denver Take Me Home Country Road. You substitute your home town in the chorus and you are there. Anyway, if I don't start heading home when I get the feeling I unintentionally end up living out the last verse. I don't need the score I'm goin' through the door I'm gonna tell the man I don't want no more Pick up a fast car and burn my name in the road One week, two week, maybe even more I pissin' all my money up against the damn wall. The first thing you know I'll be back in 'home town' again. The first thing you know I'll be back in Bow River again
I reckon this song has more emotion than Denver's - or maybe just a different emotion. _Take Me Home Country Road_ is gentle and nostalgic, but _Bow Rover_ has what I'd call "the energy of desperation", a feeling of "I'll go insane if I don't get out of here NOW!" 👍
@@aussiebloke609 Yeah, it is a different emotion for the urgency of the journey. I think I was pointing to the underlying initial emotions of just needing to be at home.
Yesss Johnny now you have a taste of chisel time for. " Working class man" " driving wheels and when the war Is over. This band is a rabbit hole and a great one at that.
They were without doubt one of Australia's best pub bands . If you want some more great Rock with a bit of fun mixed in check out Spiderbait's Black betty cover . You could also get into some more Jimmy Barns songs, hes the bloke who came in at the end of this song . Then there is his duet with John Farnham , When something is wrong with my Baby , and all of John Farnham's songs like Help with the Melbourne Symphony orchestra . It can branch out into a very big rabbit warren of Aussie music.
windows down this is the band you listen to whilst driving the highways. you might recognise jimmy barnes solo songs as he tried to break into the usa market. do all cold chisel live versions but do jimmy barnes studio versions. dez will definitely enjoy these too. catch you in the dungeon
Circus Animals and East were always pumping up and down the old Pacific Hwy driving from Cabarita to Wollongong and back. It was only tapes back then and the hwy was still the original one lane goat track and had to do a few overcorrections changing tapes heading straight for a truck or a tree.
You want to check out their "The last stand" DVD It's from one of their last gig before breaking up in 1983. They have reform a couple of times over the years to tour.
Chisel are one of the greatest bands ever. East and Circus Animals are on par with any rock albums out there. Swingshift and Barking Spiders Live 1983 are among the best live albums ever.
Aussie "pub rock". Doesn't get any better . You have a long way to go. The Angels, Cold Chisel, Midnight Oil, Rose Tattoo, many more. Next try Chisel's "Khe Sanh", our true national anthem .
Mate if you liked this check it all out. They are awesome. I grew up on this shit and cannot believe America is only now finding their genius. Check out "When the war is over(live)" "Khe Sanh" "Four walls" "saturday night", shit honestly the list is endless.
Great reaction, thank you. As the other comments say please please react to the 2003 ringside tour live version. It's insanely brilliant. The harmonica is taken to a whole new level. You won't be disappointed.
A band from Adelaide, South Australia.. (In the middle, down the bottom, baahaa) I know the harp player, Dave Blight.. Plays at Blues gigs and clubs around town.. Mossy is a USA born guy that grew up in the middle of Australia.. Jimmy is Glasgow born and grew up in Elizabeth,South Australia.. Every member of the band wrote a hit song BTW.. I play bass in a Gen X Party Rock band.. But we play this song too!! Its a rocker!! (and we have a harmonica player)
This band has the distinction of,that every member has written a hit song. Mossy is only one of the lead singers the other one is Jimmy Barnes he was the one in the footy jumper
Mate.... saw Cold Chisel live 3 times... (besides their beginnings in our local town pubs and clubs), saw Jimmy Barnes Back For A Flash... and they are one of the most brilliant bands in the world...... so glad for the internet... now we can share our talent with the world :D
Welcome to great Aussie music brother, new sub here from Australia, look forward to many more reviews from ya, by the way you have the build and the voice of a WWE wrestler, no insult intended
I think you mean “You Got Nothing I want”. 🙂 Awesome song and a middle finger to the American record producers who tried to change them to fit their own mould. This was Cold Chisel’s response- th-cam.com/video/-BiJKq7ynms/w-d-xo.html
Check When The War Is Over. Jimmy Barnes is the singer. After leaving Cold Chisel going solo. He is a legend. Check him and another legend John Farnham duet When Something Is Wrong With My Baby. Jimmy still releases music in his 60's Stone Cold. His duet with Tina Turner. List goes on.
Cold Chisel videos go in 2 different directions. 1) Hard rock..... live Wild Thing ( pure feral rock), and almost anything from The Last Stand tour....... first time they broke up the band, or their reunion concert over 20 years later. 2) Good quality rock......musical and not as feral or hard edged. Almost any official video.....lol Almost anything from Jimmy Barnes or Ian Moss is brilliant. If hard Aussie rock appeals with a more blues attitude, then check out Billy Thorpe and the Aztecs live from Boggo Road ( jail ). The jail has since closed down because the modern Socialist girly boy politicians claimed it was too tough for the worst criminals. lol Billy Thorpe had only arrived back in Australia a few days earlier..... from memory, after about 20 years in the USA. So after almost no rehearsal time and about 20 years since playing together...... they put on this magic concert in one of the toughest prisons in Australia’s history.
The thing about Cold Chisel is there is no (one) song. That's because ANYTHING from this band is gold. Also; both Barnesy and Mossie made some awesome music as solo artists. This stuff will keep you busy making videos for at least months and months
The best 80's pub rock band on the bloody planet!! Two great lead singers Ian Moss and Jimmy Barnes. To see some more of Mossy check out cold chisel Georgia and to check out the wild man Barnsey you need Cold Chisel Wild thing. They were about to break it in the states but didn't like the suits running the record company. So like good Aussie boys they told them to get f'd came home and wrote the great rock track You got nothing I want
The first band I ever saw live. It was the late 70's, I was ten years old and somehow snuck into the old Vista theatre in Woonona, Wollongong. What a night, as it did with Chisel shows back then it turned into a mass all in riot that closed the show down, then the Princes Hwy was closed down once it all emptied with a mass of drunken yobos going on a rampage against the police. The old Bulli Police station up the road never recovered from the shame of running away with a bloody nose and their tails between their legs, it closed down not long after. For a ten year old kid that night was what all other nights were judged by.
Ian moss is not the lead singer…it’s jimmy Barnes although mossy who is a phenomenal vocalist does lead sing on some songs….they make a great vocal team.
The Executives of the Recording Companies , when Chisel first went to the US , are to blame for not allowing the music buying public to choose themselves whether Chisel was a band they could get into. The suits wanted Chisel to soften down their sound, and almost become polar opposites of their true selves.because apparently to the execs , that's what sells. Bye bye any chance of big success there.
If you have not ventured into The Angels you need to. Currently the band is lead by the Screaming Jets singer. He does a great job of replacing our dearly departed Doc Neeson. The Angels are fire.
Chisels songs Choir Girl. Young girl having an abortion When the war is over. Dude getting a divorce Breakfast at Sweethearts. Drunks and junkies of Kings Cross. The Cross was the Red light district of Sydney. Khe Saen. Anti Vietnam war. Flame Trees. Returning to your home town but the love of your life has gone. Star Hotel. Rough pub in a rough town. If it has Cold Chisel in the title it's worth listening to
You will enjoy the Johnny Diesel rabbit hole...! Also known as Mark Lizotte........ Brother in law Of Barnsey.... brilliant !! Here is an acoustic start - th-cam.com/video/eyRu2gdBrbc/w-d-xo.html
You said you like seeing bands live? And you've asked for any genre. Here is an Aussie band as we would see them. Live at our local pub. The Whitlams, as popular as they are, still like to tour the pub scene... Which is amazing. And for anyone that has seen them perform, we will tell you, they are definitely underrated! Although, their songs My Aphrodisiac AND Blow Up The Pokies were more popular and you may want to check these out from this same gig on this channel.... Buy Now Pay Later, is pretty special though. th-cam.com/video/br98aiCeVU8/w-d-xo.html A song written about his original band member Stevie, highly addicted to heroin, who ended up committing suicide. Every gig, this is the one song everyone sings every word. Listen to the crowd participation from beginning to end. Tim Freedman from the Whitlams is a true story teller. I know that your Aussie followers will mention all the other great bands and songs and there's plenty, we've been quietly spoilt. I'm just adding The Whitlams to the list... As well as Powderfinger Checkout both these songs. From their last ever performance the last song for the night was - These Days (hence why people look sad, knowing they'll be saying goodbye to a great band) th-cam.com/video/7XaSm9-r_4U/w-d-xo.html And then, there's their popular song My Happiness fb.watch/j0wI-4ftzg/ ( PS I was at this concert it rocked!!!)
with any australian band you must always do a live version, that what aussies do best. this song is at it's best in the 2003 ringside tour clip
Now you’ve done it, you are now on the ‘Chisel’ train. There’s no going back. Enjoy the ride, mate!!
To be fair, this is a live version and until the 2003 version was actually hard to find. It isn't the studio version, it's classic live rock.
But PLEASE PLEASE do the 2003 version. It's the same, but better. The harmonica on that one...
2003 Version is definitely the BEST

Yeeeeees! Sums up my youth! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺
Every musician in the band are World Class top tier!!!

Hi Valina. Mossy's cover of Goergia is awesome I'm a big Chisel & Barnsey fan. have a good day
@@bon7572 Saves me requesting it.. Georgia is a killer cover well worth the listen!

Cheers and welcome aboard.
Don Walker , the keyboard player , was the main writer for the band . A legend amongst legends . This is PUB ROCK as it's meant to be played .
Yeah, I painted dons house in armidale nsw, in the 80s, great bloke.
Meh. So he wrote that piano intro to Khe Sanh that is probably the purest melody I've ever heard. What has he done lately? :D
@@jeremykothe2847wrote great songs up until 2019 but seeing as he's 71 he's earnt a little rest
Great one Johnny! Our little country town school uniform was a pair of green thongs (flip flops) blue jeans and a hand-me-down Chisel t shirt 👍
To me, as someone who grew up in the country (Australia), the harmonica gives a sound that I use to hear, similar to windmills screeching and tin sheets on a shed....it is just genius to create an atmosphere, as it does for Bow River (which is about the pining for getting out of the city and going back to the Top End).

Also "When the War is Over" on that same concert (Ringside Tour) is awesome!
Best LIVE Aussie band EVER!!! 👏👏👏🇦🇺❤️❤️❤️
Should do Wild thing from their Last Stand tour. Barnsey (Lead singer) is off his face (drunk) but still pulls off a brilliant performance.
One of several Australian bands from that time that had the chance to go to America if they totally changed their sound to something the record companies thought was more American but refused to be bossed around by the big record companies and knocked back the offer
They had a hit song about it "You got nothing I want, You got Nothing I need" The basically told the US record companies to go F themselves and came home!

Grew up on these guys when I was going through high school in Sydney in the 80's. Do yourselves a favour and listen to their album East.

Circus Animals and East were always pumping up and down the old Pacific Hwy driving from Cabarita to Wollongong and back. It was only tapes back then and the hwy was still the original one lane goat track and had to do a few overcorrections changing tapes heading straight for a truck or a tree.
The harmonica in the 2003 version is incredible. Well worth checking out.
Ahh JB first you found the greatest sport in the world, and now one of the greatest bands of all time. Bring the passion.
You want to check out their "The last stand" DVD It's from one of their last gig before breaking up in 1983. They have reform a couple of times over the years to tour.
Such a great recording - you can hear every instrument beautifully
Chisel are one of the greatest bands ever.
East and Circus Animals are on par with any rock albums out there.
Swingshift and Barking Spiders Live 1983 are among the best live albums ever.
Aussie "pub rock". Doesn't get any better . You have a long way to go. The Angels, Cold Chisel, Midnight Oil, Rose Tattoo, many more. Next try Chisel's "Khe Sanh", our true national anthem .

Jimmy Barnes ( Barnsey) lead singer as well Ian Moss ( Mossy)
A band from Adelaide, South Australia.. (In the middle, down the bottom, baahaa)
I know the harp player, Dave Blight.. Plays at Blues gigs and clubs around town..
Mossy is a USA born guy that grew up in the middle of Australia..
Jimmy is Glasgow born and grew up in Elizabeth,South Australia..
Every member of the band wrote a hit song BTW..
I play bass in a Gen X Party Rock band.. But we play this song too!! Its a rocker!! (and we have a harmonica player)
"When the War is Over" by Cold Chisel is my fav, plus :Flametrees ' all live
Good times with Cold Chisel. Takes me right back to late 70s and early 80s.
Check out Georgia.
please check out the 2003 version of this song, pure magic
This band has the distinction of,that every member has written a hit song. Mossy is only one of the lead singers the other one is Jimmy Barnes he was the one in the footy jumper
Great reaction to a great Aussie band big guy , try khe sanh
Grew up on this band so many great songs .
You to see the 2003 live version, even better
now you just HAVE to react to Jimmy Barnes and his good mate,John Farnham singing,"When something is wrong with my baby".
Jimmy Barnes is the lead singer of Cold Chisel Ian Moss does take the lead for some songs. You could say they are co leads.
Mate.... saw Cold Chisel live 3 times... (besides their beginnings in our local town pubs and clubs), saw Jimmy Barnes Back For A Flash... and they are one of the most brilliant bands in the world...... so glad for the internet... now we can share our talent with the world :D
Great reaction to a Great Band.
A music genre most underrated: Australian Pub Rock
Go for it....Jonny .......
Welcome to great Aussie music brother, new sub here from Australia, look forward to many more reviews from ya, by the way you have the build and the voice of a WWE wrestler, no insult intended
Hi Jonny please always play ozz bands and artists live, they are much better, this what we were bought up on, good old ozz pub rock!!! 👍🇦🇺💚💛
I recommend Cold Chisel When The War Is Over - th-cam.com/video/VsFFBc7dhD0/w-d-xo.html
Welcome to the Chisel club you’ve entered a rabbit hole of hits going back fifty years
Working class man is a great song to one of my fav
You have nothing I want
Another great song by Cold Chisel
And Jimmy Barnes is the lead singer and check out his solo stuff
I think you mean “You Got Nothing I want”. 🙂 Awesome song and a middle finger to the American record producers who tried to change them to fit their own mould. This was Cold Chisel’s response- th-cam.com/video/-BiJKq7ynms/w-d-xo.html
@@Laraine3 thanks that song came out a very long time ago I was close and thank you I'll be checking out the link now
@@anthonypirera7598 most welcome! 😊
Aussie Pub rock? Cold Chisel? Jimmy Barnes? Loved your reaction so I’m here for the ride. I’ve subscribed 😃😍
Love your reaction kick arse don't they?
You have to do 2003 version of this song. It is even better!
Please please PLEASE listen to the 2003 Ringside Tour version. It will blow you away!
CC had huge albums and singles .
Check When The War Is Over. Jimmy Barnes is the singer. After leaving Cold Chisel going solo. He is a legend. Check him and another legend John Farnham duet When Something Is Wrong With My Baby. Jimmy still releases music in his 60's Stone Cold. His duet with Tina Turner. List goes on.
Cold Chisel videos go in 2 different directions.
1) Hard rock..... live
Wild Thing ( pure feral rock), and almost anything from The Last Stand tour....... first time they broke up the band, or their reunion concert over 20 years later.
2) Good quality rock......musical and not as feral or hard edged.
Almost any official video.....lol
Almost anything from Jimmy Barnes or Ian Moss is brilliant.
If hard Aussie rock appeals with a more blues attitude, then check out Billy Thorpe and the Aztecs live from Boggo Road ( jail ).
The jail has since closed down because the modern Socialist girly boy politicians claimed it was too tough for the worst criminals. lol
Billy Thorpe had only arrived back in Australia a few days earlier..... from memory, after about 20 years in the USA.
So after almost no rehearsal time and about 20 years since playing together...... they put on this magic concert in one of the toughest prisons in Australia’s history.
The thing about Cold Chisel is there is no (one) song. That's because ANYTHING from this band is gold. Also; both Barnesy and Mossie made some awesome music as solo artists.
This stuff will keep you busy making videos for at least months and months
The great Ian Moss!
The best 80's pub rock band on the bloody planet!! Two great lead singers Ian Moss and Jimmy Barnes. To see some more of Mossy check out cold chisel Georgia and to check out the wild man Barnsey you need Cold Chisel Wild thing. They were about to break it in the states but didn't like the suits running the record company. So like good Aussie boys they told them to get f'd came home and wrote the great rock track You got nothing I want
Cold chisel wild thing is a must see.
You will not be sorry🫶
It's showtime!
The first band I ever saw live. It was the late 70's, I was ten years old and somehow snuck into the old Vista theatre in Woonona, Wollongong. What a night, as it did with Chisel shows back then it turned into a mass all in riot that closed the show down, then the Princes Hwy was closed down once it all emptied with a mass of drunken yobos going on a rampage against the police. The old Bulli Police station up the road never recovered from the shame of running away with a bloody nose and their tails between their legs, it closed down not long after. For a ten year old kid that night was what all other nights were judged by.
Aussie, Aussie, Aussie
Bow river is not a river in the sense but is more like a creek that only flows a few days a year
lead singer is Ian Moss?, founded by Ian Moss?, thats all i hung around for
Ian moss is not the lead singer…it’s jimmy Barnes although mossy who is a phenomenal vocalist does lead sing on some songs….they make a great vocal team.
You gotta see the live version
Please do a reaction to “My back pages”. Do the live version at Dylan’s 30th anniversary concert at MSG 1992
magnificent
The Executives of the Recording Companies , when Chisel first went to the US , are to blame for not allowing the music buying public to choose themselves whether Chisel was a band they could get into. The suits wanted Chisel to soften down their sound, and almost become polar opposites of their true selves.because apparently to the execs , that's what sells. Bye bye any chance of big success there.
Followed Barnsy here
Can't get more of an Aussie line than, Pissing all my money up against the damn wall
If you have not ventured into The Angels you need to. Currently the band is lead by the Screaming Jets singer. He does a great job of replacing our dearly departed Doc Neeson. The Angels are fire.
You need to check out cold chisel live version of wild thing. Best live band ever
Chisels songs
Choir Girl. Young girl having an abortion
When the war is over. Dude getting a divorce
Breakfast at Sweethearts. Drunks and junkies of Kings Cross. The Cross was the Red light district of Sydney.
Khe Saen. Anti Vietnam war.
Flame Trees. Returning to your home town but the love of your life has gone.
Star Hotel. Rough pub in a rough town.
If it has Cold Chisel in the title it's worth listening to
Try 'Goodbye Astrid' or 'Yakuza Girls' from Cold Chisel.
Try the angels ,and the new Zealand band split enz ,great song writing
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Live Bro.....
You will enjoy the Johnny Diesel rabbit hole...! Also known as Mark Lizotte........ Brother in law Of Barnsey.... brilliant !! Here is an acoustic start - th-cam.com/video/eyRu2gdBrbc/w-d-xo.html
Iam Moss "lead vocal" of Cold Chisel lmao.
Gee whiz, if you like Harmonica. Listen to "Northbound" same band. They're the GOAT. Welcome to Oz, mate.
You are now a full honorary Australian brother welcome aboard 👍
Hey mate, check out " When the War is over" by Cold Chisel. Will send shivers up your spine.
Who told you mossy was lead vocal? Jimmy Barnes was the front man.
Australia.
You said you like seeing bands live?
And you've asked for any genre.
Here is an Aussie band as we would see them. Live at our local pub.
The Whitlams, as popular as they are, still like to tour the pub scene... Which is amazing. And for anyone that has seen them perform, we will tell you, they are definitely underrated!
Although, their songs My Aphrodisiac AND Blow Up The Pokies were more popular and you may want to check these out from this same gig on this channel....
Buy Now Pay Later, is pretty special though.

A song written about his original band member Stevie, highly addicted to heroin, who ended up committing suicide. Every gig, this is the one song everyone sings every word.
Listen to the crowd participation from beginning to end.
Tim Freedman from the Whitlams is a true story teller.
I know that your Aussie followers will mention all the other great bands and songs and there's plenty, we've been quietly spoilt.
I'm just adding The Whitlams to the list...
As well as Powderfinger
Checkout both these songs.
From their last ever performance the last song for the night was - These Days
(hence why people look sad, knowing they'll be saying goodbye to a great band)

And then, there's their popular song
My Happiness

Ian Moss is great but Jimmy the lead singer is on another level.
