One of the best songs ever written. By the drummer of all things. The talent in that band was crazy good.

[@warrenbridges1891]

Shaun DGB RIP Steve Prestwich.

[@stephenmanuel8431]

Don’t forget he wrote Flame Trees and Forever Now!

[@toddjames7]

My mum is 80 and loves this band and Jimmy Barnes.

[@jemxs]

Classic Chisels, Jimmy and Mossy work so well together and don't try to out do each other. It's about the song.

[@Rondigity92]

One of the most beautiful breakup songs of all time ❤❤

[@georgeibrahim7945]

Glad your reacting to these legends. Cold Chisel is one of the greatest bands of all time and deserve all the recognition they can get. You should check out “wild thing” next by Cold Chisel

[@Dr_KAP]

Ian Moss (the main vocalist here) is one of the best guitarists Australia has ever seen. Jimmy Barnes is the band’s usual lead singer although the two do a lot of songs together as they harmonise so well. It was Jimmy Barnes’ falsetto you heard. The band dates back to the ‘70s and was Australia’s most popular band on record and stage from 78-83. Recently Jimmy Barnes broke a new Aussie record for the most number 1 albums in the history of the ARIAs (Australian charts), topping U2 and Madonna, with 16 number one albums.

[@DG-ny7ll]

Agree. Imagine if Ian was in another band, say... from the USA. Sooo good it is ridiculous!

[@Notric]

My first ever night working in a pub was as security in front of the stage at an Ian Moss show. A great night, 1987 or 88?

[@mcdoogledutch2994]

I second that notion.. Moss is an rare talent

[@petermcculloch4933]

Haven't you boys listened to Tommy Emmanuel? Not only Australia's greatest guitarist.He is the greatest guitarist in the world.

[@Dr_KAP]

@@petermcculloch4933 I’m not a boy but I believe my comment said Ian was one of the best - not the best 😉

[@kdavies3105]

One of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard...so much emotion, such a different arrangement for a song & perfectly describing the disorientation facing soldiers returning from war! ❤️‍🩹

[@Jeff-sd7ws]

I know you have already listened to Bow River but the version at this same concert is even better

[@neilhadley4722]

Ian Moss plays an Australian Maton acoustic guitar, they are made with native Australian wood which are very dense and give the amazing tones.

[@jono.pom-downunder]

The perfect returned services song. Cuts deep, especially this acoustic version.

[@davidburnett93]

I love watching you enjoy Aussie artists. Cheers mate

[@carolynh8866]

Cold Chisel two great vocalists. They share the lead often and complement each other so well. Jimmy's falsetto is special. And once you get to see more from Mossy on Guitar you will understand just how outstanding his skills are. Check out Wild Thing from the Last Stand concert to see just how good he is. Also I would check out John Farnham singing this same song either with Jimmy Barnes or from his 2003 concert live. His vocals just soar into another realm. Beautiful Song. Great reaction!

[@AndyFNQ84]

Great reaction, thanks for that

[@davidhaynes8745]

Great reaction Brad. A beautiful song about a relationship breakdown. Chisel are the best.

[@davidhandson2429]

Loved it man now you need to check out a Cold Chisel song Sung by Jimmy Barnes try You've got nothing I want. This song is directed at the American music industry who Jimmy and the band believed treated them with contempt.

[@wren1960]

If you want to see Jimmy going wild. Check out Wild Thing it is amazing much younger Cold Chisel.🇦🇺👍

[@atriox7221]

A great one is khe sanh by cold chisel, definitely a must hear with great meaning

[@narellesmith7932]

John Farnham sings this with Barnsey in an outside concert as well as in the Main Event ( on his own)

[@carolynh8866]

And several other concerts as well. The best one was 2003

[@simonpaterson9648]

WOW, that guy is live also.

[@dropbear6740]

Grew up with Cold Chisel in the 70's and 80's Australia's No1 rock group, you must listen to more chisel

[@allydevine2192]

Only the best.

[@mrmockatoo6786]

The song was written by drummer Steve Prestwich who sadly passed away from brain cancer in 2011.

[@warrenbridges1891]

mrmockatoo That's not Steve. This is the guy who played drums on SBS Rockwiz. Their other replacement after Steve died was Charley Drayton, who was married to Chrissy Amphlett.

[@mrmockatoo6786]

@@warrenbridges1891 Thanks mate. I wasn't sure - put it down to old brain and poor eyes. Fixed the errant bit.

[@warrenbridges1891]

@@mrmockatoo6786 That's okay. To be honest, I just recognised the shirt he was wearing.

[@mrmockatoo6786]

@@warrenbridges1891 Sorry mate...you're wrong. I just went back to check the original. It's Steve. 2003 Hordern Pavilion. Checked a 1995 performance of Steve singing the song. Definitely the shaker guy and not the RocKwiz drummer.

[@warrenbridges1891]

@@mrmockatoo6786 Fair enough. If it's 2003 it must be him. That other guy must have stood in at a later date.

[@reneepope-munro8115]

My fav version of this is the stripped down John Farnham cover from his Last Time tour where he goes vocally AWF, but there is legitimately not a bad version. There’s even an iconic Australian Idol performance from the first season that was spectacular 😂

[@cristiona22]

I totally agree - that performance by John is just the most amazing ever ! And yes, I am a Chisel fan too .

[@jarrodrainbow4435]

And all us Australians tear up

[@waynedavenport6053]

You should also hear John Farnham do this song, in the early 2000's in concert, awesome! Both John and Jimmy have sung together many times and they sound good together particularlly on 'Somethings wrong with my Baby' another song you should try.

[@judileeming1589]

Love Cold Chisel. I remember seeing John Farnham sing this song live and Jimmy Barnes came on stage and it was the best duet of this song with both of them going right off with Jimmy’s powerhouse gravel and John … some of the notes he hit were stratospheric.

[@caro.k2958]

Have to disagree it was great but nothing can match Jimmy and Ian here.

[@anything70sfan]

You need to check out more of Jimmy Barnes! Listen to "Working Class Man!"

[@stephenford4446]

Hey Brad good to see you getting into classic Aussie rock, if you like acoustic guitar we have the best acoustic guitarist in the world check out Tommy Emanuel

[@kazz3956]

Definitely fire by Chisel. Eternally my number 1 band for life 🎉

[@bartonbagnes4605]

Great vocals for sure, with incredible vocal range. I really hope you will react to "Dare" by Gentri, they describe themselves as symphonic pop. And all have theater backgrounds, they were all in a production of Les Miserables when they decide to form Gentri (short for "Gentleman Trio"). And recently were again all in a production of Les Miserables.

[@Epic76ers]

Your t shirt 😂😂 love it

[@jeremykothe2847]

Our other favourite musician did a cover of this that you should watch. John Farnham, aka "Farnsey" to Jimmy's "Barnesy". kzbin.info/www/bejne/eJbOk6migd-AjcU We all love Jimmy, but we're in awe of John.

[@RolandDeschain1]

Australian rock has always been the working man's music. It wasn't like the American rock of the 80's which was all about fast cars and banging chicks. Aussie rock always retained its blue collar ethos. And Cold Chisel were the masters of that. They are a part of our nation's cultural DNA.

[@pieterbaun1569]

Brad, could you react to Chisels, Bow River "live" please.

[@matthewashman1406]

The song is about a marriage breakup

[@BrettWilliams-n1c]

Jimmy barns man, just amazing man and voice He made cold chisel but ian moss is great too but not to jimmy’s standard. FN old good band mate

[@peterbrennan7111]

Does it surprise you that this song has re-emerged after the Russian attack on Ukraine? Is there any greater human folly than the subjugation of the freedom of others than a misguided and dillusionul sense of self importance of those with imperial ambition?

[@fukkar4545]

Chisel was the sound of Australia in the 70/80s 😉👍 their song "you got nothing l want " was a hit here after coming back from USA and their corporates bull💩...and we fuken loved them even more for it ❤🇦🇺
