Midnight Oil, "Beds Are Burning", live at the Hultsfred festival in Sweden 1994.

[@eldritchwulfe]

Almost 30 years later and this song still rocks. sadly it's message is still needed

[@johnmugge1695]

I am from the states and every time I hear this song it brings tears to my eyes you Australians are so cool and when I think what we did to our indigenous people and thought it was just a okay. I feel shame! The song has great music but even more intense meaning. Thanks for giving me a bit of the Australian experience.

[@Haydoz94]

"one of those instruments that sound better and better with age, Just hope we do", and they sure did.

[@videosbydrake]

HaydoZ I thought the same, hearing that comment of Peter's just now, watching this. I saw them live for the first time earlier this month, in Furuvik (Sweden). They blew me away!!

[@Bloodline616]

I'm just here to see this dude dance. Loving it.

[@jangodreams]

This has become a classic song. Wish I could have heard it live. Unlike a lot of today's music...the dancing isn't more important than the music...and the band is actually performing. And 'live' singing too. Unbelievable artistry behind this song. Thanks to the members of Midnight Oil for this.

[@RastaSaiyaman]

I loved it back then when it came out, that love has only grown stronger over the years.

[@triciasoto]

Rest in Peace Bone Hillman aka Wayne Stevens i always listened to all ur songs that is no lie i always wanted to come and you perform live in concert now i dont have that chance to meet u in person since u passed away in the year 2020 it broke my heart when i heard about ur passing away it was devastating news i love that song Beds are burning that song where u are playing ur guitar i cant get the fact that the world lost an amazing legend of all times u never knew u had a big huge Canadian fan from British Columbia who always listened to ur videos you will be loved and missed from people all over the world ur in my thought and prayers Rest in peace my friend ur not going to be forgotten

[@rextumonewdog]

[@chriswinchester6268]

Im a guitarist but i always pick up the bass to this song. this makes so much fun!

[@johnmugge1695]

Oh yeah who can't feel that da da da in between riffs? So intense! This music is a work of Genius both instrumental and lyrically! Well done, almost timeless.

[@ggforeigner]

The guy on the Didgeridoo goes off. Really makes that version of the song something to behold. Wish I could find a better audio track of it.

[@wakeyang7]

Perfect what a group

[@travisexum3553]

his passion always stood out to me. I was 13 when this song came out and I still love it. Have it on a daily playlist all these years later.

[@LAYLAANDSZA]

Seven years later, and they still don't!

[@brentmoore5568]

Inolvidable Midnight oil 👏👏👏👏🇦🇷

[@victorsvictor]

Maybe not the best singer in the world, but he really makes the best of his voice. And man, what a performer he is!! On top of that he just seems like such a nice guy. Fantastic song - greetings from Denmark.

[@lordpetex4468]

Garrett can't sing for shit. If you iisten to their early stuff late 1970s you can hear that he is trying to sing. But later he just yells his social brainwashing crap. We got it the first time mate.

[@8DavCnuk]

7:09 he is absolute unbelievable :D

[@kernel1506]

10 years ago from your post and... We miss this. No cellphones and static people in shows. Greats times not coming!

[@1000teresa4ever]

A part of me is totally respecting the profound meaning of this song and the awesome musicianship. Then part of me is totally cracking up laughing at Peter Garrett's dancing.

[@ivanabonacicdoric3448]

I love see him dancing, Anthony Kiedis, and Iggy asvell, dancing like nobody is looking 💪

[@felixdagrouch]

Not a single camera device in the crowd, folks merely enjoying the music and atmosphere. I lived those times, it was amazing. I’ve now also used my phone to record at concerts. WTF!!!!

This is why The Oils are still the best live band ever. How's the NRG n Dance

[@RicardoManceraTorres]

...SONG OF THE DAY!!! MIDNIGHT OIL - BEDS ARE BURNING (1987) Esta canción tiene dos significados, la primera hace referencia política para que les fueran devueltas las tierras a los nativos Australianos Pintupi y el segundo donde muchos allegados al vocalista Petter Garrett mencionan que la estrofa de la canción que dice "¿How can we sleep while our beds are burning?", hace referencia a la madre de Petter quien murió cinco años antes en un incendio en su domicilio. Tan DESGARRADORA que te atrapara por SIEMPRE.🤘🏿ULTRAMEGAROLOTA🤘🏿12/02/2021
