Great Southern Land ICEHOUSE 40 Years Live

[@haraldmiller4894]

should become the official national anthem of the land down under! Great song, great version.

[@aaronmackenzie4548]

It is to me, & always will be. G.S.L

[@jimmycameron6568]

This performance makes me proud of Australia, and I'm not even Australian!

[@KrisAbbas-l3s]

Lived in Dubai for 6 years and played this over and over to remind me of home

[@Twinguin]

"Never stops giving you goose bumps " - so true, so iconic, so beautiful. My favourite song of all time. Thank you.

[@westerlywinds5684]

This song came out when I lived in Sydney back in the 1980’s. I still remember where I was and what I did when I hear this song. I remember dancing in the living room with my flatmate. Where are you now?

[@LutherAmosHouse]

Hope they never get tired of playing it. Should be the theme song to all travel in the outback. I can't travel,but to this American, this is the National Song Of Australia.

[@michelleseal988]

I would have been 14 at the time lm turning 55 this year wow the years have sure gone fast .. well done icehouse ..👍👍👍👍👍🤚🤚🤚🤚🤚👏👏👏👏👏👏👏🤝🤝🤝🤝🤝🤝

[@pixie3760]

Sit at Heathrow waiting to come home. Every Aussie in the place is singing and crying.

[@gerhaldlaubscher8321]

One of the best bands and songs ever!!!!!

[@nicolaslegrand9379]

This song has a special place in my garden of memories. 40 years on, it's ageless! Used to live Down Under when I was a kid in the 80's, I have now settled in the south of France for 27 years and when I hit the road, I love listening to and sharing this song with my georgeous little daughter and ...she loves the bass line to it! Of course! Priceless! Being a teacher in English as well, I have even made my pupils listened to it! They couldn't have given a sh... But I enjoyed the moment so much!

[@trevorcoppock5621]

What a great band they are. This really takes me back to great times........this from a Pom in New Zealand!!! Utterly brilliant!! The land of my convict 5x great aunt Mary.. This song connects me. And THAT drumming.... like the beating heart of a nation. I wish we had this in New Zealand.

[@StuartHarris-grunge]

How good is Icehouse and Iva at the front! Great Southern Land my all time favourite song.....screams Aussie!

[@X7393]

Icehouse you are a legend 😮all over the world 🌍 👍🏻🇺🇸-🇳🇿

[@ch4processer]

should be national anthem, played and sung at sporting events

[@jennalreland6485]

PLAYED LOUD AND PROUD EVERY AUSTRALIA DAY. Icehouse is definitely a hard hitting rock band here on Great Southern Land!

[@loveismyair]

This song has always made me want to be an Aussie! Rock on Icehouse ♥

[@AmandaLaggan]

Me too!

[@Boolama27]

Same!

[@straywolf77]

When I visited Sydney in April 2018...this song was ringing in my mind. Just epic. Aussie national anthem.

[@ALEXALEX-qh9xz]

Its a pretty good trip..🇦🇺👌

[@waynemorrison5204]

Great song 👌

[@dasbarasat2637]

80s golden period of Aussie movies and music. Radio Australia spread the hits all over India in the 80s fantastic stuff...

[@denisetillman1462]

still as fresh as it was 40yrs agao. Love it still!

[@davidedmondson5083]

PLAYED LOUD AND PROUD EVERY AUSTRALIA DAY.

[@trevorcoppock5621]

Should be the Aussie national anthem.

[@theend9494]

I went to see them in Melbourne with Hall and Oats, I flew in from Perth for O&A but Icehouse blew me away you dont realise that every song is a hit

[@Ariannaishun]

I saw them headline in Brisbane Festival Hall with The Angels as support ... 1982!

[@K69-y7b]

I was there too. Flew over from Perth.

[@xjofocht4292]

Makes me feel homesick for Aus..... I love this song. PLAYED LOUD AND PROUD EVERY AUSTRALIA DAY.

[@X7393]

I remember this song because of the movie Young Einstein lol ever since then I'm a fan of this rock pop group! Aussie music rules especially from the 1980's and 90's!

[@kathymartin7724]

Me also. I've liked the song since seeing it at the end of the Yahoo serious. Movie.

[@Boot2Ass24]

Yes that’s how I remember it from, been wondering g for years what that song was from yahoos movie, finally got it!

[@sea-ferring]

I was in my early teens in New Zealand when this song was on high rotate and really didn't think much of it. It was background noise. Now I love it and I really like this version. Drummers have come a long way since then - so metronomic but still organic sounding. I am so old!

[@sea-ferring]

I write this before the guitar solo that ruined everything. This song is cinematic - it needs no flashes of virtuosity to elevate it. The song stands on its own without fucking rock solos.

[@davehunt9441]

I first this song back in September 1982 and straight away I was transfixed to the sound and lyrical content of this classic song at a time I had new neighbors living next door and who were they? It was Mum Shirl (god bless her lovely soul) and a few Koori aboriginal elders and the lyrics “are you gonna let them take you over that way” still still sticks with me to this very day. A timeless Aussie classic.

[@straywolf77]

The second...yet greatest...Australian National Anthem.... Please rise!

[@anih_s0uza17]

This song has always made me want to be an Aussie! Rock on Icehouse ♥ I love this song. PLAYED LOUD AND PROUD EVERY AUSTRALIA DAY.

[@DragonSlayer-lc5jh]

The ultimate rock song about the best country in the world AUSTRALIA.

[@MeiZu0606]

MY FAVORITE SONG 😍😍😍😍😍👌👌👌🖒🖒🖒perfect song in everyway thanks Ice House!!!

[@jasedc958]

They are playing live in Melbourne at St. Kilda beach in March 2021,will go off

[@EileenSpeakman]

Beautiful, spiritual, connect- you-to-the-earth words and music arrangement. Been following John Farnham on youtube for just over a year which has led me to other aussie artistes I'd never heard of . Love this song, play it frequently. Apr'24. UK. E❤

[@trevorcoppock5621]

Bet you don't believe what you've been missing. Aussie bands are awesome.

[@heffingtonjosepht.2852]

PLAYED LOUD AND PROUD EVERY AUSTRALIA DAY. MY FAVORITE SONG 😍😍😍😍😍👌👌👌🖒🖒🖒perfect song in everyway thanks Ice House!!!

[@ralfkoch6956]

heard this great band in my first months in australia in december 1990......never got a better experience

[@johnbilverstone4160]

Icehouse supported David Bowie on the Serious Moonlight tour in 1983. They were very good and I love this song

[@colinwoods5663]

I hear this and I can only think why is this not our national anthem. i never ever felt more like a aussie in music then this song. the defence forces should have this played at every camp to open the hearts and love for this country

[@kylemikulenka5938]

Best band ever to come out of Aus ...Hats off guys. Perfect in every way Telegraph Road is another song you can pick from just the first one note.

[@jeffreygreig2903]

Best band ever to come out of Aus ...Hats off guys.

[@ratedprogram6947]

Because of this song, my dream job when i grow up is to become an Aussie :)

[@anibalbabilonia1867]

Love you ice house! You guy's are awesome! And i send my love and greedings from Puerto Rico.🇵🇷🤟😎👍👉❤🇦🇺

[@StefanSchulze-l3q]

Close your eyes to this song and you can see this Great Southern Land. Still the best song for me.

[@mindseyephotographyegypt]

absolutely a rock band! I said it for years and the other music journalists who thought they were too cool for pop music missed some really great shows because they just didn't bother to see Icehouse play. Now I live on the other side of the world and haven't been in Australia for nearly 9 years, this song touches me even more whenever I play it to friends here in Egypt.

[@rodneydockrill604]

Iva Davis and Ice House pure genius song written by one finest Aussie musicians,songs,I still remember back in 1988 the yahoo serious movie.

[@Boredin81]

Paul, I will be up front crying if you guys come to Denver!!

[@joe-nu3uo]

never fails to make me cry - that longing to belong to the land

[@rosesarebeautiful9777]

Would make a lovely Australian National Anthem. Add some Didgeridoos would be perfect. Love this song!!!!!!! I would love to hear this in the local Aboriginal native language. It's a beautiful song. Goosebumps and tears everytime I hear it. A classic masterpiece. Well done to these amazing musicians. Yes it's one of these songs you know straight away on that first note!

[@MasterDownUnder]

Here is an Official Remix/New version that was done with Iva Davies and a heap of other people, and it features Aboriginal People performing with vocalising and singing part of the song in their language and a didgeridoo throughout... Awesome! I would play this on my way into Uluru for sunrise with my passengers. Really set the mood... kzbin.info/www/bejne/joGznWSll79lb8U

[@hrgaify]

I love this song.

[@Alexei34P]

I say its my favorite song ever. i love this live video of great sourthen land. i can just play over and over again

[@miked5562]

This song makes me think about Albert Einstein trekking across the Australian countryside

[@ArchiveTVS]

Loving Great Australian Concerts on SBS tonight 👌

[@annetteglover5036]

Great Southern Land represents Australia. It should be our national anthem for sure

[@012345678935564]

Amo a ese baterista, que angel tiene,cuando lo vi en el video ELECTRI BLUE descubri su hermosa alma y encanto y aun sigue siendo un niño en su interior y me encanta ... vamos Paul Wheeler todavía. gracias

[@julianovitorassi1546]

Que loucura!!! Não se sabe se a música é mais bonita em Studio ou ao vivo. Sensacional o talento da banda.

[@johnbeckham1483]

Icehouse is definitely a hard hitting rock band here on Great Southern Land!

[@archangel_josh]

Man, Flowers is the BEST name for a band. Also, your songwriting is second to none. It's fantastic, catchy, hooky, epic and unknowable in that way man searches for his maker and wants a relationship with him. I'm not a Christian btw.

[@randolfo1265]

I know what you mean, really great songs can make yer eyes water, hair stand up and lump in yer throat. I am not a religious person either or drug user, but some music is just THAT GOOD!

[@jermaineadams1377]

I love this song. PLAYED LOUD AND PROUD EVERY AUSTRALIA DAY.

[@plainjain8406]

Absolutely!!! Gives me chills!!❤️

[@ralfkoch6956]

every australia i made my windows open in germany, cheers mate

[@robosborne7103]

Icehouse's "Great southern Land" for Sydney Australia and U2's "One tree hill" for Auckland New Zealand !!! BOOM !!!

[@bobhenry7513]

Saw them open for the Tubes in Asbury Park, NJ (USA) in August 1981!!

[@Kaleiddmode]

What Paul Wheeler does on the toms is genius. Originally it's a bass line on the chorus and Paul transfers those lines to the toms. Shame the camera didn't film that part but still it's awesome to hear them every time.

[@jameshdebono1364]

Kaleiddmode you are so right 👍🏼

[@rosesarebeautiful9777]

Love the drummer. Absolute legend!

[@haraldmiller4894]

It must be a human drumming machine! Great timing! This man is a wizzard on the drums.

[@kubuli100]

I’m from the United States how come we haven’t heard of this band well I haven’t heard of this man and I listen to a lot of music

[@ERLizaard]

I thought Electric Blue and Crazy were hits for Icehouse in the US in the late 80s. Cheers from Oz.

[@kubuli100]

Australia's alternative national anthem 👍👍🇦🇺

[@ypanso]

this song is from August 1982, "New Gold Dream" by Simple Minds was released one month later and they really sound a lot like each other

[@nickpearce9441]

And both are fantastic.

[@paulkazjack]

Good point.

[@rossrobinson6092]

How many of you remember them as flowers first

[@CHARrrrrrrrr]

Solid and clean

[@peterg219]

Thank you...

[@danejensen2119]

Yeah I totally get this. I was at the concert in Bundaberg, Burnett Heads that is. I had no idea that this song, which I had always appreciated, could be heavy rock, I thought it was light duty radio rock. And you guys played it cunt-heavy here live in concert. I'll never forget that. Like fucken Phil Rudd heavy. Love your guts & salutations to yas. May your tunes live forever.

[@darkcloud5530]

Thank God for the Yahoo Serious movie "Young Einstein" or I would have never known about this song. Thanks Mr. Davies, et. al. lol
