Escutei pela primeira vez em um baile, passei mais de 25 anos tentando descobrir quem cantava essa música, descobri em um story do Instagram, nostalgia a mil, passei a virada do ano ao som desse hino

[@HarryMollyNut]

There's this annoying thing under every Australian band/song's video in the comments section where someone loudly reminds us how awsome 'AUSTRALIAN' music is/was. It definitely reminds me of how globally insecure we are as Australians. It's a phenomena seen under every Australian music video that isn't seen from other nationalities, they just call it 'MUSIC'.

A primeira vez que ouvi esse som foi em 1998, quando tinha 12 anos, em uma fita cassete que um amigo me emprestou. Bons tempos!

[@maxpower9175]

no voice overs or lip syncing, this is the best version to hear

[@lucianofigueiredo4877]

Kkkkk

[@IvanHawkes]

It's literally all lip-syncing. Video is almost always shot at a different time to the audio. They are spliced together during editing.

[@michellefletcher8891]

It absolutely is the best version yr right

[@GM-pn7ih]

@@IvanHawkes he's referring to performances like on countdown in the 80s, where the musicians and singer were miming along with a studio backing track.

[@56Jagman]

Listening to 'Classic Hits' radio station on the weekend and after this song the DJ suggested that there are people who like this song because it has a great beat and the chorus is so easily sung along to but they have never listened to the lyrics closely enough to have any idea of the 'story' that the song is telling. How can that possibly be?

[@maxpower9175]

the story is a window into another world, yeah the beat and tune is catchy, but gotta be pretty dumb to miss the story here, i'd say stop listening to that station...
