Love it! 😁

Amazing

Australian TAXPAYERS $$$ being spent driving Americans aroung Europe

"My Melbourne: Where America meets the Monarchy." - St. HMAJW."

Please come to Bundaberg!

This is really cool to see😊 I didn’t know they went to find the perfect sound for such a short part of a song❤

Love you guys

Worked the Railways and the Botany tanneries, saw Frank Hyde in the flesh at the SCG Members on Grand Final Day 1981. I worked with Kerry Burke who played for Souths losing Grand Final side. But every line, every image, from the red rattlers passing Newtown to the Commission flats out west, when rugby league was truly tribal, brings grown men past their prime like myself to tears because we are mourning times gone forever, lost youth. A work of genius.

Thank you.❤😊💙

I loved this time in my life. Getting Drum Media and circling the shows we’d go to every night for the next week. SO MUCH FUN.

Normally songs are about love and relationships and I love that this song is about a subject that doesn't come up a lot in music.....It's saw raw and honest.

"The Morning Paper is a Good Routine for a HEALTHY Memory!" - St. Angel."

20 years after this song we are now close to having gambling reform. This song was a catalyst. Good on yas. In 2003 I walked into a pokies sat down and asked " think about what your doing?" Venue called jacks on me. I was locked for the night. Whitlams inspired me to do that. Now we know more about gambling addiction. Fuck nsw gambling lobby

I love this song.

My Aussie boyfriend in college got me addicted to this song and band in 2001. Still friends and still a fan!

"Republic: Turnbull LEADERSHIP. FAILED Republican MESS: ALBO for LABOUR clean up!!!" - St. HMAJW."

Tim didn't say g'day to Perry Keyes when he passed him at 1:25. The writer of this song. Check his version. I'm sure Tim would agree.

"A MAN IS MADE WHEN HE STARTS TAKING ORDERS FROM HIS MATE AND NOT JUST THE DAD HE ALWAYS HAS BEEN!"! !! ! ! - ST. HMAJW."

Never forget the yanks were behind this

The sacking of Whitlam would have to be one of the main reasons that people are pushing for a republic with the Morrison portfolio fiasco another political fubar.... Unfortunately it took COVID-19 to bring out the best and worst in our current politicians. It's certainly not the Australia I remember from the year 2000 with the lucky country moniker severely tarnished. 😎🇦🇺👍

Started listening to this as a virgin, hits me harder when I lost it all.

Sounds like Elton John

Glory 👆

Have never been taught the story of Ned Kelly. Am 59. Taught loads about British history shit. Farming. Captn Cook. 1st & 2nd WW. Pointless shit. Didn't learn about politics or commerce, stuff I should know. Learning now, but a little bit late. Self-taught, then UNI. anyway. White rich c+nts, putting down white working people. (Don't start me on what they think about other races.) The education system is not working.

Met tim after a show at a local RSL great guy, great talent.

As a father and a working class man, this song always hits hard. Even at the best of times it's hard for many of us to be the type of parent that we would hope to be for our children.

So devastated! Just went down to the piano bar only to find out it was last night.😢😢 was soooo looking forward to it..🤮

As, someone else sang of...like to see you live without it .....Marnee..... farg... if, only.🎉😂❤

Arfeelaik, going for a drive....without, the entourage....aaaand stalkers....following from behind....stirring t.r.o.u.b.l.e. with the locals....radelaide......a "hold my drink, watch this"....moment....if, only for the weekend..... aaaand the cost.....😮

It's a nice twist compared to the original one. I've been a fan of the song since I was too young to understand the inappropriate lyrics meant.

What A Great Idea 💡They called me a Loser hey Tim, then booted me out. I’d had one drink only 😂

Oh, wow, that was a long time ago when I was working with Groundswell Productions and Paul Brown from The Nightwalkers took me to The Sandringham in Newtown to meet Tim Friedman. It was then that I mentioned what we were endeavouring to do to put live music back on the menu - and mentioned those immortal words "I wish I knew the right words to say, to blow up the pokies and throw them away". Tim asked if he could borrow that line, and I let him. The thing was that we did achieve the goal from it too, by showing how live music can pay. Now I have the fledgling London Charm here in London, England, but this time it's more about finding ways for people to just safely meet up in general around the love of the right type of live music played at the right place with the right atmosphere.

Every parent in 1999 wishing their kids would stop talking about Pokemon nonstop be like...

Go souffs!

Nathan Brown this is for you

Just love those I play it every day takes me back to Sydney simpler times ,

Great vocals. Good to see Perry make a cameo appearance.

Cool.

Bundaberg please!!

"ANYONE WHO CAN COUNT MATHS WHILE DISTRACTED BY LOSING THEIR MONEY IS A LOOKER!"!! !

Although I don’t follow the Rabbitohs, it is great song.

Yr a mystery Tim Yr mastery over the common people I applaud you,I have a picture with you And I look amazing Thankyou my double denim friend ....

What a wonderful time to be alive before all the crazy 'worldview' changes everyone had to suffer. Those alive today who experienced Livin' in the Seventies know what I mean.

Love Tim Freedman! my favourite voice and my boys LOVE anything Whitlam's or Tim.

I want to kill my self listen to this

cant stop crying

a seminal year 97

Sport, how incredibly boring and 'macho'.

Amazing song. It's a shame Tim changes the melody & timings, when he performs it live.

She paints pictures on the wall She eats all of the garden And has an aversion to conviction And she calls her dog "the bear" In love with this girl And with her town as well Walking 'round the rainy city What a pity there's things to do at home She paints pictures on the wall I awake to see the feelings from the night before She eats all of the garden, it's a jungle out there And we won't return by dawn If I had three lives I'd marry her in two I'm dreaming of a time That we sit when the music stops She has an aversion to conviction She's more confused than ever Won't pay her fines and wonders when the cops will get her She calls her dog "the bear" And walks me with him to the corner In her pyjamas
