Spotify turned me on to this song. The video is amazing. I'm obsessed

[@rosarioyeen1371]

Wasn't expecting the man, the legend, the mythical Tim McIlrath himself from Rise Against to collab with AWOLNATION but I totally fexking dig this!

[@jasonkeller4929]

In other words, how can you sit there while your friends and families beds are burning. Help them because YOU CAN!!!! YOU ARE A HERO TO THOSE YOU LOVE!!!!

[@briannaamore1383]

The song was originally about the Gadigal tribes that were moved off their ancestral lands so the Australian government could test nuclear weapons.

[@SavageGreywolf]

@@briannaamore1383 yes, this. The beds are literally burning.

[@jillianmorrow4770]

My first concert when I was 3 was Midnight Oil. Yes, 3. My parents owned a music store - they started me young! My dad is still my #1 concert buddy. 💜

[@somebloke3869]

Fantastic. Great band to be your first live experience.

[@LaughingSeraphim]

Turning 44and I've only been to a single concert. Poverty sucks, but that's OK. I'm autistic and the crowd was a lot to deal with.

[@downundercolour]

Hello Jillian my first concert in Aus was ACDC when i was 8 or 9. It cost 25cents back in 1973 with Little River Band as the headliner at our local library....lol.... Seen Midnight Oil a few times but he got waaaay too political at his concerts....lol...

[@denisedonnelly6744]

So sweet...you were spoiled musically..wild.

[@christopheraguilar7382]

Dad goals.

I was like WHAAAA... Then I was like YESSSS..

[@lexslate2476]

To clarify for Americans, because this song is from a country that uses a different temperature scale, 45 degrees celsius is well above human body temperature and genuinely unpleasant to walk around in.

[@whammersbach]

No fucking shit

[@markr1574]

Dafuq.

[@lexslate2476]

@@whammersbach Americans are real and they're out there. Also thank you for replying to this comment so I could go back and see the video again.

[@campinatorxbox1610]

@@lexslate2476 here in America 45 degrees means it pretty chilly outside.

[@lexslate2476]

@@campinatorxbox1610 I know, that's why I provided the initial explanation. In your system, 45 Celsius translates to about 113. aka, hot as balls.

[@ImperialAlex]

I'm loving these covers so much!!! Man, those Megalithic sounds mixed with this song are a masterpiece, please never stop making music!!

[@georgemink1813]

QUITE SO!!!! I'm LOVING that this cover doesn't dillute the power behind the song, not one bit!!!! 😀

[@conors4430]

I’m an oldschool punk fan and a Rise Against fan since 2004, I did not know what to expect, and boy was I not disappointed. Absolutely great collaboration.

[@Gabriel-lx9gu]

This song is better than midnight oil beds are burning

[@socalkylex]

Midnight Oil walked so Awolnation could run

[@bowieoliver555]

Tim is an amazing human. I'm obsessed with everything that he does.

[@katskiba1985]

Same pal, same

[@diegohenriqe2276]

You're not the only one here ksksksksksks

[@warsawred]

Never in my life did I think I would hear a Midnight Oil cover by a popular band.

[@mikejones1629]

Alexisonfire does a BOMB version of The Dead Heart

[@latetodagame1892]

Seriously? A second Classic!

[@Meadock]

Was a little put off by the sound at first, but it quickly grew on me. The song and video are absolute masterpieces. Gives me goosebumps. Can't stop coming back for more.

[@TallDarknGruesome]

Agreed, don't think it needs all the distortion on the intro and some of the refrains, but its a great cover and techno shift of the song.

[@jaycesadventures8412]

I thought he same exact thing about the sound , but something about the video was amazing so I kept watching it more and more and the song grew on me., now it's the best cover of Beds

[@mikejones1629]

I feel the same! But love it now!

[@CHASJAS]

That's why sail is one of my favorite songs, the power and intensity of being able to literally scream in tune!!

[@sergiobavarescojunior7019]

yeaaaa

[@keithmoore150]

This video perfectly captures all my best dance moves

[@DeadRabbit5]

I'm going to wear this song out so fast, I can't stop hitting repeat.

[@superimpious6073]

The perfect video to the perfect song.

[@trevorcross818]

I am beyond stoked for this album! It’s hitting just right so far

[@MegaDieseldriver]

This is fucking insanely good

[@babynala1847]

Awol is ON FIRE! Seriously. Can Aaron even make a sub par song? I don’t even typically like covers. How many anthems can someone create? He’s one of my musical heroes. Every album is gold.

[@michaelstephens4494]

Man, I loved the original but Holy cow! Talk about a cover done well!!

[@0kden]

This is a pleasant surprise right before bed!

[@iamgeminijoker]

A+

[@foxtrot570]

That's why I love covers like these. You can sing along even when you hear it the first time.

[@sandybullinger1530]

Tim Mcilrath voice is great

[@theonlyone38]

Wish he'd do some more touring or do some more solo work. He has too good of voice to be sitting on the sidelines.

[@sandybullinger1530]

I agree. He has really evolved from early Rise Against.

[@CHASJAS]

Man!! I absolutely love the intensity of awolnation's front man's voice! He has such a high range along with very powerful volume! I really love it, it's like he is screaming in tune!! Very extreme, very powerful!!

[@Marcanov06]

Aaron slaps

[@zenseed75]

The timing of this release. ❤️😭🌍🌎🌏

[@PoidaHoppy1988]

Yes I do wonder how this Scott Morrison lead Liberal Party can sleep when our beds are literally burning

[@autumnshudder1150]

I'm actually quite weary when bands cover songs that I absolutely love. But this version fucking rocks. One of the best covers I've heard in a long time. Love the style. Gotta check out the rest of their music :)

[@CiardisInferno99]

Tim McIlrath was EXACTLY the right person to get for this cover.

[@amyg635]

I was just about to type this! I've loved this song since my youth!

[@DanaONeillStuder]

Weary or leery or both. I get you.

[@inspyre.design]

Agreed. I really dig MO and these guys gave us a great cover!

[@thebeatleswin1]

It’s very subpar and pretty annoying. Shit taste.

[@chosenone1244]

Absolutely luvv this video

[@taylorrousell1976]

HOW AM I JUST HEARING OF THIS NOW OMG

[@Angel-jw2vx]

Oh this is awesome and love that you used an Aussie song,couldn't be more in love,what an honor to have you sing this❤❤❤❤🇦🇺

The 80’s are back, baby, and I for one am going to enjoy this second trip with THE BEST MUSIC for as long as we’re allowed…

[@moshjoshpitchief4418]

This is so sick

[@sahlofolina8410]

Out where the river broke The bloodwood and the desert oak Holden wrecks and boiling diesels Steam in 45 degrees The time has come To say fair's fair To pay the rent To pay our share The time has come A fact's a fact It belongs to them Let's give it back How can we dance When our earth is turning? How do we sleep While our beds are burning? How can we dance When our earth is turning? How do we sleep While our beds are burning? The time has come To say fair's fair To pay the rent Now to pay our share Four wheels scare the cockatoos From Kintore East to Yuendemu The western desert lives and breathes In 45 degrees The time has come To say fair's fair To pay the rent To pay our share The time has come A fact's a fact It belongs to them Let's give it back How can we dance When our earth is turning? How do we sleep While our beds are burning? How can we dance When our earth is turning? How do we sleep While our beds are burning? The time has come To say fair's fair To pay the rent now To pay our share The time has come A fact's a fact It belongs to them We're gonna give it back How can we dance When our earth is turning? How do we sleep While our beds are burning?

I completely agree. He could have added so much more to this.

[@JJ-no8fk]

Yeah I didn’t hear him once?

[@Into-the-woods-I-go]

@@JJ-no8fk He’s mostly in the background but go to 3:05, you’ll hear him say “turnin” pretty clear.
