John Williamson - Raining On The Rock [Official Video]

[@Bazza5000]

I would love to visit Australia one day. I am a Canadian teacher in South Korea and teaching students about go to Australia, and I showed them this video and taught them about Australian history, aboriginals, Uluru, the bush country, the mix of cultures and restaurants in Sidney, Melbourne etc... I taught them some slang. I will make it a point to visit. I love this song. It's one of my favorite. And I love Albert Namatjira's paintings. Uluru is power.

[@scottlang7271]

Basil, thank you for your efforts. Shoulder seasons are the best time to visit. Hope you make it one day :)

Im Australian so buy some tickets this was my school dance so I know the dance and yes I'm a kid

[@goingnowhere4487]

I hope you have made it in the ensuing (strange) years. If not keep the idea open. One strange thing I have always found is that every time I travel thru the centre is how intense your dreams are at night…almost like the land is showing you its magic, its ability to tap into your soul. Australia is a living land, with wisdom far beyond our age. Just don’t get stuck in the cities. That will ruin it for you 😅😅😅

[@frederickstanley7605]

The power of black & white together.

[@camv3236]

This song hurts me so much each time, because it’s not like that. Those that truly respect culture in their hearts and want to embrace that are excluded based on skin colour, origin, and ancestry. We still have so far to go it’s painful.

[@sarahhemmings7155]

I love to see the two of them singing together, definitely Australian, thank you

I saw the rain on the Rock in March 2020 - before the impact of Covid19. It was a spectacular sight. I was surprised by the number of people had had worked in the area for at least two years and had never seen rain on the Rock. I was told only 1% of visitors get to see it rain on the Rock.

[@PeterEmery]

I've only been to Uluru once: a high school trip in September of 1973. I swa the rain on the rock, truly grand.

[@rika5219]

Winter 2012 - also rain on the rock :)

[@wehtam4807]

I've stood there and watched while it was raining on the rock, so inspiring. Proud to be part of this great land.

[@tedwall5725]

Exactly, unfortunately, too many people have their own selfish agenda, and the country is run by a bunch of political thieves.

I am proud to say my Father taught Warren H Williams and his brither at Hermannsburg, i know that he and Mum are proud of what Warren an his family have achieved My Mum worked in the store at Hermannsburg and Albert Namatjira sons used to buy their paints from her.

Only went on holiday to Australia last year ( Sep-Oct 2018) but this song- by god, already it evokes wonderful memories of my 4 day tour to the Red Centre during my 3 week stay in an incredible country. God bless Australia, and all who live there and love their country, I will be back one day!

[@adriandavies4873]

This too brings back so many memories for me , my first time in Australia I traveled from Canada where the temperature was minus 7%f wearing the clothes I traveled in I walked out side from the airport into an oven it was over 90% f what a shock ? I spent 6 weeks I total bliss visiting every where I could in such a short time along the west coast , I met many new friends, it was hard for me to leave and go back to Canada . The reverse happened on leaving Vancouver airport the drop in temperature again was another shock as I was still in my shorts and sandals! All in all a brilliant time , while in Australia , while on a prearranged 6 day safari with another group , the guide in the cassette player in the van we were traveling in played John williamson 's tapes my first time hearing him Brilliant and of course the first chance I got I bought a copy in a store in Cains, what a wonderful friendly place . That was in 1990 a few days after Christmas, I still play the tapes even now . A couple of my favourites , Bill the cat , the budgie song , True blue , boogie with M'Baby , just to mention a few . Wonderful 👍👍

This happened to be the song on the radio when I first had the realisation that bushfires of 09 were being beaten by the rain. 4 blokes I'd not met the week before were sitting on the back of some random towns tanker just enjoying the moment. I'd hate to go through that again. But that 3 min of glory ill remember all my life

Gary Whalen Here ya go: Pastel red to burgundy and spinifex to gold, we've just come out of the Mulga where the plains forever roll. And Albert Namatjira has painted all the scenes, And a shower has changed the lustre of his land. Chorus And it's raining on the Rock, In a beautiful country, And I'm proud to travel this big land, Like an Aborigine. And it's raining on the Rock What an almighty sight to see, And I'm wishing on a postcard that you were here with me. Everlasting daisies and a beautiful desert rose Where does their beauty come from heaven knows. I could ask the wedge-tail but he's away too high, I wonder if he understands it's wonderful to fly. Chorus It cannot be described with a picture, The mesmerizing colours of the Olgas. Or the grandeur of the Rock Uluru has power!
