if ever there is such thing as the perfect song, a perfect marrying of great music with the most brilliant lyrics, this song would certainly be up there ... absolutely brilliant
ahhhhhhhh this song.... this song remains the same.... her melody will keep on lingering around long after the sound has ended.... such a classic Aussie beauty this one is! :)
I recently just got out of a torrid love affair and the night before her husband busted her we were swapping songs that we loved and described how we felt. This is the song she gave me and the next morning we said goodbye forever. And I'm left with this song, I keep listening over and over again. Each line becoming my favorite with time. The whole song is amazing and is brillant lyrically.
Commemoration In 1986, Davis was posthumously entered into the TV Week Logies Hall of Fame.[8] His work has been commemorated in the documentary Frontline by David Bradbury and in Tim Bowden's biography One Crowded Hour,[9] which takes its title from a verse by Thomas Osbert Mordaunt: "One crowded hour of glorious life is worth an age without a name",[10] a line that Davis wrote in the front of each of his work diaries. The award-winning Augie March song "One Crowded Hour" was composed by Glenn Richards while he was reading One Crowded Hour.[11[]WIKIPEDIA]
Oh but the green-eyed harpy of the salt land She takes into hers my hand She says, "Boy I know you're lying Oh but then, so am I," And to this I said "Oh well." OMG I love this song!!

How was this not worldwide hit. Boys dress it up and do it the same Maybe more drums going off. Fuck me one of the best songs of all time. I think it could be even turned into a longer version with instrumentalists because it deserves a re- release.
well put me in a cage full of lions i'll learn to speak lion in fact i know the language well i picked it up while i was versing myself in the languages they speak in hell
