Another gem from my youth rediscovered. Used to love playing this song in various cover bands back in the 80s. It just had so much power, channeled from somewhere so deep in us all.
Hey Jimmy man you have come through so much well done I lost my da in 1971 in action Vietnam I was 5 and still hurt.

Still the best version of this anthem. Just a glorious, tragic, lyrical masterpiece. I was three years old when this was released, and it was still playing on the jukebox at the Wheeler’s Hill Hotel every Thursday night when I finished up my schooling in the nineties. Timeless….

I love this song. I was in the United States Marine Corps 1973-1977. The 4 years I served after Vietnam, most people hated us.... I'm talking Americans. When it was time for me to get out in 1977, I'd had enough. I got out and let my hair grow down to my shoulders. Over the years, I got over it.... and now I'm proud to be an old Marine Sergeant for Life. Semper Fi

I worked at the Sinter Plant for 9 years and watching this video brought back some great memories of my time there,I find it hard even now to watch footage of it being demolished. Allot of history gone forever. Both of my grand parents worked there too. My Nanna at N02 Merchant Mill which became later i think as Onesteel Wire Mill.Grand dad was an Outside fitter and worked all around the plant.

Amazing how they`ll tell you everything EXCEPT the dangers.If you have a look at about 18.27, you`ll notice 4 huge ingot moulds, these were kept in what was known as the "soaking pits"., huge gas flames that kept them white hot until it was time to roll them into smaller billets. Some times they used a special crane to remove the moulds and just leave the white hot billets sitting on those small waggons. On a rail line just next to the 18 inch mill in about 1968 a poor worker was walking too close to the billet and somehow the billet fell off onto this unfortunate person. No reason to explain the end result. True episode, I walked past the site on my way to the Sinter Plant where I worked the next shift.

He clearly doesn't cope with Australian life, and most importantly, drifts north and prefers Hong Kong. It's hardly a ringing endorsement of Australia. I find it really ironic that it complements China and is critical of Australia, and yet we love the song.
