Shane Howard calls it genocide. A brave man. A brilliant man. An unbelievably sensitive and gifted songwriter. An huge influence on his generation, so humble too.
@sashasmith52004 жыл бұрын
@Derek Gleeson I would say and take it to mean he was brave because he used music to speak out about Uluru and lies in school history around what happened in general. As I understand they weren't even sure if the radio would play the song or if it would be banned in places at the time
@ioannisuntonevris37244 жыл бұрын
Pleiadian13,, even trying to find the right words to respond to what you said about Shane Howard is a very difficult task. Put simply my good sir/ma’am, I don’t believe that (not even in 100 years) would I ever be able to do this great song any justice by dreaming that I could put it any better, none whatsoever good sir/ma’am.
@danieljohn5894 жыл бұрын
Can't help but agree with the term brave - to be brave is to have the courage to endure a challenge without fear. Ultimately, his lyrics are brave because he is a prosperous white Australian man with the courage to speak the truth through music.
@pleiadian133 жыл бұрын
I felt he called Terra Nullius genocide, in an impassioned and directly condemning way as regards the colonial invasion. It was the first time I heard that. Musically, it’s carrying that message almost on the wind. I may be ignorant, for me it’s influence is seen and felt in the change of perspective of what the truth of that genocide means too. I still feel vulnerable saying that statement to anyone. “Well someone lied. It was genocide!” For that and his love and appreciation of the first nation peoples and their descendants is beautiful and are-inspiring.
@geoffcoates86712 жыл бұрын
It was genocide. I just wrote a couple of essays for Uni in my journalism degree and the objective and directive from the colonial masters was to erase Indigenous people and culture.

The best time i had at school was learning guitar from Shane Howard, just before Goanna took off. Shane did Razors Edge at our school concert! Goanna had such a fresh powerful sound. I still have their music on rotation all these years - (you dont do that just because he was my guitar teacher) I still play guitar by the way, and so do my 2 mates I went to lessons with!

If a group could perform like this today we would rave about how amazingly well this performance was choreographed but they just worked it out themselves and really were that good It also sounds amazing because he put his heart and soul into this song and that can only come out live Song has aged well like a classic wine and feels as fresh today as it did nearly 40 years ago I remember Goanna headlining a concert in Launceston in the early 80s but they were only allowed to play a couple of songs because the concert was running too late

It's still so moving after all these years. Its one of the songs that inspired many of us high school kids to go on to work for indigenous rights. PS If you visit Ireland check out ex-Goanna bass, digd, mandolin and banjo player Steve Cooney, who many regard as the best trad guitarist in Ireland.
