Midnight Oil - One Country (Official Video)

[@kevgamble]

Rest in peace, Bones Hillman. He added a lot of beauty to the Oils' music, nowhere more so than this song. Thank you for everything.

[@anne-mariemcdonald7017]

Such sad news. I've always loved this song for the treat of hearing Bones' beautiful voice.

[@Catherine-c8q3q]

Most underrated song of the oils, pure masterpiece

[@andypandy8569]

One of the most. They had several.

[@UnlimitedHangout]

Warakurna is my pick but this is undoubtedly one of the greatest songs ever.

Just heard the very sad news of the passing of “Bones” Hillman, and immediately thought of this song with his beautiful voice singing “Country One”. Such a melodic counterpoint to PG. Thoughts and love to his family and members of the Oils. Rest in Peace mate.

[@Jiv_Ing57819]

Thank all of you guys, I became political because of you guys and it changed my life. I am forever in your debt.

[@robertmarino333]

Masterpiece. So. Good . Such talented people. I feel every note, chord, harmonizing. They put their egos aside and saw the bigger picture. I’m no Aussie but this should be national anthem. Always loved this band before all Aussie bands for some reason.

[@Jellybeantiger]

R.I.P. Bones Hillman,his backing vocal carries this song to great heights.

[@jaysonbradbury162]

R.I.P. Bones Hillman. You will be missed. Us Aussies all send you our love and sorrow

[@brentmontgomery8914]

To Rob, Martin, Jim & Peter. So sorry to hear about Bones. Found out Sunday whilst watching The Sound. The message came up on the screen. I couldnt believe my eyes. I love the OILS. Bones had great vocals, especially on this track. He will be missed by all Oils fans.

[@davidgaul572]

One of the many unappreciated great songs by Midnight Oil.

[@mikespearwood3914]

Blue Sky Mining was a flawless album.

[@donaldjr1969]

Mike Spearwood, agreed! And the trio of River Runs Red, Shakers and Movers, and One Country in succession is pure musical bliss!

[@jasonbarbush4991]

unappreciated is a better word for underrated.

[@tomaszszymanski8710]

fully agree!!!

[@markrigg6623]

I know 4 people who say this is their favourite song. It's close to mine that's for sure.

[@new1jas]

I believe every Australian, whether black, or white, Christian, or Muslim, whatever race or religion should consider this song and do their best to live as one and make Australia a country to be proud of always! go the oils!

HONESTY POWER AND PASSION AT ITS BEST !UNTMOST RESPECT !First hear them when i was 12 , my twins are 10 now and im 45 and for me -as i am teaching them what nature of music really is -they sound as much uplifting and passionate as the day I first heard to them many years ago.!You Aussie people have to be proud - Oils did Australia excellent service !

[@johnrobertson7188]

One of the truly great Oils songs. Captures the activism of the band in the lyrics & should motivate more of the population of this nation to be more active in the future of Australia. The song is spine tingling & always moves me. "One vision, one people, one land mass, we are defenceless, we have a lifeline, one ocean, one policy, sea bed lies, one passion, one movement, one instant,one difference, one lifetime, one understanding."

[@hanakoasakura830]

+John Robertson they were definitely ahead of the times -- as I view the ugly politics where I am (in the US) the Oils are very relevant today.

I'm 42 now and I love you forever 💖 Je ne suis pas bilingue alors c'est en français que je vous envoie mes sincères condoléances. Comme beaucoup, je suis triste de sa disparition mais là-bas, c'est sûr, il ne souffre plus. Je vous envoie plein de courage et plein d'ondes magnifiques 🌞🌈💖💖💖💪

Midnight Oil. A legendary band. This is their best song though underrated. It gives you chills and makes you think.

[@kimbatwl4663]

Devastated to hears of the death of Bones Hillman. This was one of my favourite Oils songs (one of many admittedly) in which he sang that gorgeous solo. So sad 😭😭😭😭

[@Isabelnolonger]

My favourite band since I was a 12yr old in 1981. I've been playing this song a lot lately. It has taken on new urgency and meaning as we sit at the crossroads for determining the direction this planet and its people will take... no longer up on that fence.

[@tomaszszymanski8710]

When I was 19 it was my favorite band and still it is and I'm 50:)

[@MrsBazzy]

RIP Bones 💔 always one of my favourite songs due to your beautiful harmony. The whole band means so much to me....because you stand up for what matters (and you light up a stage like no other) Sending so much love to the Midnight Oil family and more especially to Bones' family 🙏❤

[@greatmartini1]

I was going through one of my "boxes of stuff" a few weeks ago (May 2023) and found the first Midnight Oil album (cassette) I ever purchased. It was the 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5 , 4, 3, 2, 1. album. I purchased it in late 1982 or early 1983. I graduated high school in 82. It still works. I've been hooked ever since. Amazing band and an incredible message.

[@elcasho]

This song and visuals always makes me so proud to be Australian!

[@denisenott4372]

I saw Midnight Oil at Western Plains Zoo in Dubbo 30 odd years ago... I remember Peter Garrett's hands waving around from their stand on Monkey Island... Years later I am still in awe of this great Australian band and I think this is their greatest song ever. Brilliant penned lyrics, haunting solos and an amazing film clip showing true Australian images. An iconic Australian band who sang from the heart and soul

[@johnarvanitis3067]

this country needs the oils again it's time

That is Bones who lost his battle with cancer,R.I.P. mate.

Bones has passed, the bass player here. Outstanding musician, but you can see that. He was a big factor (makes him sound like a commodity) in the Auckland punk scene. Rest in love brother x

[@cabdll]

@@turls5456 Correct Wayne Stevens AKA 'Bones Hillman'. I think his nickname is due to him being skinny and he drove a hillman panelvan.

This is such a powerful song. One of their best.

[@patrickstaveley4846]

Going to miss you Bones. That beautiful voice is now gone and I’ll always feel sad now listening to this and watching this and think of you when I hear it. The way the song calms down like the end of a storm and your voice guides us out of it, it’s what your voice was capable of. Thanks for the music, I’m just happy I got to see you on stage.

One of my favorite bands. Just started listening to them again. And omg where they right about everything. Big Oil companies and corporations have ruined our planet and the indigenous cultures all around the world. And this was back in the 1980s. Now look where we are. The world needs to stop and listen and change for the better.
