[@emancipateu5879]

Absolutely bro

Grew up in 70s 80s life was good mum would say just b back by dark not nowadays the world is evil

[@michaelhedges2066]

I'm a 67 year old Alaskan ice road trucker. I just stumbled across you guys on KZbin. What a great sound Whata treasure. You guys are keep playing.

[@joannemates6367]

Are you single? I’m 50 and Australian 😁😁😁😁😁

[@Kevin-oh2je]

@michaelhedges2066No-one but no-one did it like Chisel The U.S. missed out because of one ignoramus that nearly had it's throat ripped out and had it's cocaine thrown on the stage No shortage of idiots in the U.S., especially in the music industry Get f.....d Rick Rubin

[@paulmcleod3109]

Incredible song, with the greatest bridge ever.

[@TheCrucifiedClown]

My very favourite. It is just so Australian in it's lyrics. It may be about returning to Grafton but all of OZ can claim this song in their heart.

[@ItsANiceDaySometimes]

My youth right here. As an adult this hits me hard in the heart. It gets me thinking of friends gone too soon, one in particular a country lad who died in a car crash in 1990 at 19 years of age. RIP Michael.

[@seanh4841]

Yeah I miss my mates that were taken to soon, man we had some crazy times

[@dizzotizzo69]

How many? I've had a few in my 20's and now that I'm 52, I've lost 17 people that I've been friends with and the longer we live, it will be exponential. @@seanh4841

[@711ROWDY]

I am a country boy, so lost a lot of mates to car accidents, and suicide.

[@philhudson...5017]

Stay strong guys & allways remember your buddy's, your loved ones.... 🇦🇺💥🥊👌

[@anonymousgirlno7532]

I have to agree. This song, on the surface, looks like it touches on lost romantic love, but underneath, it's an exploration into our own fears, evolution and mortality, highlighted in everything staying the same while we change. I close my eyes and I'm back in the town I grew up in (not far from Grafton!) and I can almost feel my heart being ripped out of my chest as I look back with love, humour and regret on the girl I was. "We shared some history, this town and I..."

[@Mmmm2217]

Those were the DAYS. If only we could turn back TIME. ✌️🫶💟☮️🇦🇺

[@noelroberts8199]

Here Here....

[@711ROWDY]

Where did those days go?

[@ianworcester4640]

You can't turn back time to the good old days .1950s to 1980s Everything is now run by the Satan club. Woke left militants LGBTQ+ XYZ Globalist elite Islamic extremism Protestor terrorist supporters Communism Socialism Anti colonialism Cancel culture.

[@ugnsblo]

I used listened to this song when I was in Australia. There were so many good songs from Cold Chisel.

[@sammy_dog]

Jimmy and the boys at their all time best right here

[@paulfuller8985]

I and my brother and our best mate saw them at Bathurst NSW in 1983 . One of the best concerts I have ever seen .

[@michaelscott1060]

I met Jimmy in Thailand many years ago, he and his beautiful wife were just lovely.

[@pixie3760]

Always down to earth. I think that's why Aussies love their own performers, our stars remember the people who paid their rent, and they respected their fans. Even though Barnsey was born in Scotland he's also one of our own.

[@jason_mate]

One of my favourite songs!

[@johnhambleton6478]

How good were the late70's and into 80's in Oz...a great time 😊

[@stephenvonstigliz5364]

Best live version of this song period! Any version for that matter, brilliant.

[@matthewcullen1298]

As a young Aussie apprentice i loved the joe camalerie and the black sorrows. NZ and Australia produced some amazing music in the 80s and 90s

[@fins59]

Great performance, love it, it made my eyes leak a little.

[@adriang6259]

Greatest song ever.

[@salsmell6815]

Good old days!!70s n 80s fun times!!❤

[@roostersbays95]

yep yep !

[@downhillernie]

Absolutely amazing and beautiful, your music and lyrics have been a huge part of my life. An amazing performance. Thank you for sharing.

[@kazz3956]

So many great songs produced by Chisel. I’ve heard Jimmy say this one was his favourite ❤️ If only the Twentieth Century album was not the last… This song always makes me reminisce, transported back to times with mates.

[@robinbanks610]

There was nothing like a chisel show👍. Few years ago randomly ran into mossy at the twin servos on the highway near the central coast. Tells me “I’m late for a sound check.”😂. Had his station wagon with like a million guitars in it…….

[@jesusislukeskywalker4294]

🚬😎 should be in the rocknroll hall of fame or the country and western music hall of fame . .. both

[@user-bl1km1rw9v]

Those were the Days . Thanks for the memories Jimmy My Brother

[@psychicmafia666]

How can his daughter be so young? These were my teenage/early 20's classics. Widowed now but we had fame trees. I miss him so bad, it hurts so much ❤

[@melmarie43]

Still one of my favorites😊

[@andrewharald]

Hi 😊

[@user-hd3pw9vi9h]

Born in 65 Chisel WILL be played at my Funeral !

[@tomsawyer5736]

Damn what a voice

[@ronfreeman5857]

Such a beautiful Aussie classic!! 😎✌❤

[@noelroberts8199]

Jimmy is an absolute LEGEND.........

[@racheleastwood5588]

One of the best

[@andrewharald]

Hi there

[@pixie3760]

Saw Jimmy live at the Coogge Bay Pub, 1996 if I recall correctly. I had industry supplied V.I.P. tickets...sat upstairs got free booze and snacks...one of the best concerts I ever went to, it was a charity event due to Doug Mulray having terminal cancer. Doug was one of our legends too. His brother got on stage and sang some of Douggies songs, he sounded just like his brother...talk about cry...it was so bitter-sweet. I still tear up when I remember Doug as he was that night. We had..still have some of the best talent in the world.

[@emancipateu5879]

Nice

[@elizabethevans1861]

those were the days so wonderful😊❤😂🎉😢

[@andrewsaul8215]

The very first public performance of this Cold Chisel classic prior to the April ‘84 release of their 20th Century album some five months later. It certainly passed the pub test here and the Steve Prestwich/ Don Walker penned Chisel standard went on to become one of their best known radio songs.

[@FrankThetank-el2sd]

My father Frank told me when you realised working class man that is the smartest man in Australia my father was a steel worker God bless always australia ❤

[@bibiofficialmusic2204]

Greetings good people and music lovers 😊 This is one of the best songs by Jimmy Barnes. I listened to it for the first time while living in my home country where I had reluctantly returned to after growing up in Sydney. My hat off to Jimmy Barnes such an amazing person singer and songwriter!!!🙏🏻

[@gjcoop5625]

It wasn't written by Jimmy. The music was done by Steve, the drummer, and more than a year later, Don came up with the lyrics. Jimmy just sings it.

[@LachlanDods]

Never really gave this chisel song too much mind on its own but SEEING Jimmy Barnes singing it makes it special, love cold chisel best Aussie band

[@takutaigarland1202]

This is my favourite song it takes me back to a certain time every time i hear it

[@joannemates6367]

I was born in ‘73. This is my favourite Cold Chisel song!!!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@andrewharald]

Hi there

[@seanh4841]

Finally, who needs that sentimental bullshit, can be played, the 80's and 90's were magic for me in Melbourne, almost killed me, I'll never give it back

[@711ROWDY]

cant wait for what I still call Clipsal to see Cold Chisel

[@susa1969]

I think this is the best version of Flame Trees I have seen 😊

[@cheriemcleod-cv8hu]

Luva Jimmy. Flame tree is my favourite song.😢love all your music but this song is very special to me

[@dizzotizzo69]

I went to Sydney in 2011 and visited Bondi Beach, the Opera House, Kings Cross, took the train, drove up to Katoomba to see the 3 sisters and had a blast. I'd love to come back and visit Darwin, as well as the Gold Coast.

[@adriang6259]

Imagine the boys right there., trying this song out for the first time. Probably have no idea how amazing the song will become.

[@cheriemcleod-cv8hu]

First song I heard of yours Jimmy. Cold Chizel. Loved flame tree when came out. Awesome song will always be my favourite ❤song ever

[@brettshields6687]

Bloody good old Days miss them so much

[@garyjohnstone6422]

I grew up in Melbourne. I haven't been back to Australia since 2016. Australia isn't Australia anymore

[@user-bv9gl9xc8d]

Makes me miss the country we grew up in. The great Australia that was before the pollies fucked the joint

[@johnnydavies1970]

[@pippen2k]

[@HENJAM48]

I was way too cool to like Cold Chisel when I was young, until someone bought me a ticket to the Last Stand concert in Brisbane. I was a fool until then.
