As an Aussie I’m so rapt you did this one! The guys name is Jimmy Barnes, and he’s a powerhouse. Back when this was recorded, he was a terrifyingly huge drinker and this shows the raw talent he still had. He’s cleaned up now, but still a national legend!

[@uncle_thulhu]

Not to mention, he was about 50% amphetamines...but yeah, Barnsey is 100% Aussie rock god (despite actually being Scottish). . Btw guys, I am so glad you did this one. Reactions to Cold Chisel are *extremely* few and far between. Which is amazing. I'm sure you've heard of the "big 4" of thrash? Well, Chisel was one of the big 3 of Oz Rock, along with The Angels and AC/DC. I know you know Akka Dakka, but check out "Am I Ever Gonna See Your Face Again?" by The Angels (preferably something recorded live in Australia - you'll see why 😏).

One of my favourite rock bands. You should listen to "Bow River" live which features the lead guitarist (Ian Moss), who has a great voice, singing with the lead singer, Jimmy Barnes. Jimmy Barnes is a legend in Australia. These blokes were brilliant live and they cover so many different genres of rock. Another good Cold Chisel song is "Flame Trees". I subscribed because you often listen to Metallica and now you've added a Cold Chisel song. Great stuff!

This is an Iconic Australian "Anthem".... It is a tribute to Australian Military Service Personnel. Those that served in the Vietnam War and then came home to an un-caring Nation. Many struggled with PTSD and re-integrating back to civilian live. Many felt forgotten an unappreciated. A similar story faces our current Veterans from Afghanistan and Iraq. They deserve better.

[@johnathanasiou9284]

Khe Sanh is so well known by so many Aussies that we're honestly surprised that its iconic lyrics are not yet on the naturalisation exam for people who wish to reside in Australia.

Australians who grew up in the 80s and 90's know what they got. We're well aware of the absolute world class talent and the plethora of incredible rock we produced at that time. With a population at the time of around 16 million, along side the United States Southern rock movement, Australia owned rock'n roll at that time. It was an incredible time to be alive because we all knew it. These were our anthems. Rock on my Gen X Aussie brothers and sisters. Thanks for your interest.

I feel like I have to comment... When I was 14 Cold Chisel did their reunion tour (unfortunately missing the drummer as he has passed away) I was pulled out of school, funnily enough it was during music class, and I got to go to the theatre to see them play. They were so amazing, Jimmy's voice is still absolutely amazing. But during this song and Flame Trees, I saw everyone jump down the building and join the main crowd down the bottom. I'm talking people who were well into their 50's jumping down the stairs to run and make a mosh pit. I've been to quite a few gigs, not sure I'll ever beat that one.

[@michaelhatchard8864]

I originally saw this band at one of my school socials, was doing music at the time, & we got asked to write a review on this band. I gave them a 5 out of 10(like the instruments, but not the screaming singer, but his style grew on me). One year later they appeared at the Largs Pier Hotel & that started their career. I used to travel out to the Elizabeth Bowling club on a Sunday to watch them for free, while they practised their songs, and sometimes on a Friday or Saturday night pay a whole A$1.50 to see them. Such a shame that USA citizens never got to see great Aussie bands back in the day

[@suzanneknibb3501]

as an aussie, being in a venue with chisel , the energy barnsie and the band gives is amazing, and yes, we all sang along

[@tankosaurus]

Haha, I love that you pointed out the pace of the song. I wouldn't have known this if I hadn't been reading Jimmy Barnes' (the lead singer's) autobiography , but Barnesy was obsessed with Cold Chisel being the hardest, fastest and loudest band it could be and when on stage he'd constantly be riding the band to get them to play faster, harder and louder. Sometimes it worked, sometimes it didn't and they pushed back, either way that push and pull created a great tension and release dynamic for their performances. And now that I know that, I can't help but laugh when during that harmonica solo, we can see Jimmy walk straight over to the Keyboard player (and main songwriter, including this song - Don Walker) and start thumping on his piano, I can only assume to get him to push the tempo some more. And if I'm not mistaken, when Jimmy gets back on the mic, the song picks up tempo and becomes a sprint to the finish. It just adds another level of enjoyment for me, knowing what I know now.
