Paul Kelly - How To Make Gravy Reaction

[@dalewyatt1321]

A song without a chorus, written for a charity album by a brilliant storyteller and musician. Isn't it just plain BRILLIANT?

[@Dr_KAP]

Very much like Don Walker, both brilliant song writers who played with style and the strophic non-chorus form of song structure.

[@johndrum6613]

Just a thought if I may. The "making gravy" is a metaphor for making big money workin'. It's just an Aussie expression

[@hollygranger3734]

I couldn’t put it better myself, love this!

[@bossdog1480]

Not all of his songs. Little Things has a chorus.@@Dr_KAP

[@Dr_KAP]

@@bossdog1480 I was referring to the fact that both artists “played” with the form, never said anything about all songs. In fact very few of Walkers songs are strophic.

[@notanotherenigma7759]

Hi, thanks so much for pandering to our Australian sensibilities. Ok, musically, the song is nothing much, but lyrically, man, I'm 61, heard this song heaps, but the line where he asks his brother to kiss his kids on Christmas day, and don't let the cry for him.... And then when talking about his wife Rita, saying don't dance to close to her, don't stab him in the back, then he apologises, realising that it's the isolation affecting him... Wow, every time, every single time, my eyes water! Thank you for sharing so many stories this time, and I have to say, I don't believe I've ever seen you guys watch a video without pausing it before!! Merry Christmas guys, and thanks for the time you guys give, and the honest reactions.

[@littleflick]

Glad you could get the emotion of the song. I think this song resonates with Aussies because our country is so vast you can have family spread out and it’s not always possible to spend Christmas together. But then during covid it took on extra meaning.

[@kennethdodemaide8678]

[@vegasvisitor-o3e]

Comment here from Melbourne, this covid version of Pauls song seems to hit us harder than most, as we were locked down for 262 days, longest in the world and it took a big toll on many lonely people. So glad you liked it.

[@6226superhurricane]

didn't lock down once in new south wales. next time stand up for yourself.

[@mikepresland519]

Maybe the greatest Xmas song. Family, humour, pathos, amazing lyrics, great song to sing along with your family and mates. It’ll still be great 50 years from now.

[@barnowl.]

The Co-Vid lockdown in Victoria, Australia was particularly severe and it was almost like being in jail. It lasted months and we were only allowed out for some quick exercise and shopping for essentials and were not allowed more than 5 kms from home. Thankfully, the result was a low death rate. Paul Kelly is from Melbourne in Victoria and is a master poet of song.

[@petermcculloch4933]

I was considered to be employed in an essential service and worked right through lock down.I actually loved it.I had no social obligations and was able to commit my leisure time to what I wanted to do.Infact, when it ended, we consolidated our asserts, sold, reinvested and retired.I have never been happier.

[@bossdog1480]

The whole thing was 'optionable' in most of Queensland.@@petermcculloch4933

The death rate would have been the same regardless. Most of the people who died, died WITH C, not because of it.

I'm pleased I watched this video, and to hear both your stories. I was also in tears as I watched your reaction. I can't imagine what it's like to show that vulnerable side of yourself to your subscribers, but thank you. This song is one of the tracks we play during our family Christmas gatherings. My husband is a Paul Kelly fan, and it's with his insistence that we hear this every year. It's played so often that we began taking the song's story for granted. It's about an imprisoned man writing a letter to his brother about missing Christmas celebrations with family. I could barely watch the 2021 video because of what lockdown was doing to me emotionally. I'm happy to say that I can now sit through the video now, and leave that period behind. Christmas cheers, Hayley

[@heathcornbeef]

Hello my Cuzzie hay I'm glad our friends Chris and Cynthia show their emotions bottleling them in doesn't help anything I'm a Sook and don't care what people think if i get emotional about anything. Holding emotions back and not talking is a big part of why Aotearoa New Zealand has one of the highest youth suicide rates in the world it shouldn't be that way we live in the most beautiful place on earth. But it's the old harden up bloke thing that stops people talking about problems in their lives and not seeking help it's a really bad attitude Talk people Talk you will find people who understand and support you DEATH isn't the Answer

[@I_was_a_Countdown_Kid-75-83]

@@heathcornbeef Hi Heath, I agree that it isn't worth bottling up emotions. We share the same culture and values, seeing as we're geographical neighbours, so I do understand what you're saying about ''harden up bloke''. I think a lot of it has to do with placing obligations on to people, particularly men. Stoicism shouldn't be the only approach to living. Cheers, Hayley

[@RhythmicEye]

The fact it made you cry is the key to Paul Kelly's utter genius. I've heard this song countless times and I still cry on the odd occasion. FYI - Paul Kelly is not a chef but a poet, creative license granted. In Australia gravy is made more like you described but again Paul's genius is in the words because that gravy sounds more like prison food. Which is why it works and makes you cry...

I had a few tears as well as today would have been my older brothers 69th Birthday today, sadly he passed from cancer back in 2019. My parents passed in their 80's back in 2016 (Mum) and 2013 (Dad). You dont know how much you miss them until they are gone. Xmas without them always seems the hardest. This song is about a guy who has made some mistakes in life and is spending Xmas in jail. I think it was released in about 1986, real tearjerker for sure, Paul Kelly is Australia's answer to Bob Dylan, he has written a plethora of great songs so worthwhile checking him out in the future. Have a Merry Xmas and Happy New Year, one and all! Lets hope 2024 is a better year than 2023.

Also grateful in some respects they didnt have to experience Covid in some ways, I have too many friends whose elderly loved ones did it very tough. As you know we had the worst lock downs of almost anyone here in Melbourne. Hopefully thats all behind us for good.

[@I_was_a_Countdown_Kid-75-83]

@@iankearns774 The lockdown caused me a lot of stress because I was my adult kids were away from home, and I couldn't see them. One being overseas. I also couldn't see my own parents, which got me very angry. Gillian also went through similar stress, but her worries were more for our parents and not knowing when she'll see them. Her kids are teenagers and still at home, so it's not like she had to worry about them. But one child (of mine) being overseas was really trying on my patience. I can imagine how tough it would have been for your friends to lose their own parents through Covid. I was certainly worried sick about mine. And yes, you are right. Melbourne was terrible in the way they treated covid, and I was very unimpressed with NSW Premier, Gladys Berejiklian. That woman was idiot. Anyway, to leave it on a nice note, again I say Merry Christmas to you, Ian.

[@jaymacgee_A_Bawbag_Blethering]

Merry Xmas and happy gravy day to all our Australian compadres, now that’s said here’s my honest view on the track - I’m not Australian so the cultural ethos and effect of this song goes right over my head , I really like this track just as a piece of music , great chord progression, simple and easy to listen to , what’s not to like ? 👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@iankearns774]

Easy way to think about the song is its the musings of a bloke writing a letter to his family, he made some mistakes in life and is spending Xmas in Jail. He usually makes the gravy and gives advice on that as well as an apology for stuffing up and missing Xmas with family. He has written some good songs Paul Kelly, he is worth checking out.

@@iankearns774 Ian , I’m susceptible to tear jerking songs so tried NOT to follow the lyrics too closely as I knew as a dad there was a chance I’d have a wee greet and as I’ve said before , in Scotland it’s illegal for blokes to openly weep without an obvious personal injury … plus crying REALLY hurts 😆… it’s like someone rubbing a slice of Lemon in yer eye 😉.. so it’s a nice song , and though I never listened to them intently im sure the lyrics mean a lot to most folk 👌 👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@planetcountryradio8622]

I always think of gravy as a metaphor in a sense. Joe is in prison and he's sorry for what he did and how it affected the family, "Tell them all I'm sorry". Then he talks of making it up to everyone "You know one of these days I'll be making gravy, I'll be making plenty, I'm gonna pay them all back". Maybe he took money from family members? He's going to be out in 6 months (with good behaviour), stay straight and earn enough 'gravy' to repay what he took. Maybe, or, maybe it's just about the warm condiment for the roast.

[@mitchellbeston1033]

No i've never heard of any other Aussie's putting tomato sauce in their gravy however there is a thing in Oz where quite a lot of people put tomato sauce on nearly everything so maybe that is the origin of the line? Thanks for the reaction. Another Paul Kelly favourite of mine is "Careless". Well worth a listen.

[@shaundgb7367]

I do not like gravy or tomato sauce but it still a nice song. I remember the craziness at height of lockdown here when there was a curfew at 8pm. If you were found driving on road you needed to have some essential workers letter to show any police. I was working overnight at time and remember at one point there was basically no cars on the road and I live in a city of 5 million people. I barely saw the cops on road either so never needed to show them any letter if they had of pulled me over. You were not meant to shop anywhere more than 5 kilometres from your residence for essential items and not meant to have any visitors at your residence. Cannot remember how long this went on but seemed about six months at the height of it. My Dad passed away in 2018 so glad he did not have to live through the crap. If he was sick in hospital on his last legs at that time it would have been horrible. Feel sorry for people that lost people they loved in this time period.

[@KG-lu2dm]

My sister passed from cancer in 2019 and I had the same thought in lockdown - how horrific it would have been if she died and we couldn’t be with her in the weeks leading up to it. It’s a weird/guilty feeling, being sort of glad they died earlier.

Hey, here’s another thought. For “Who did it better” comparisons, RockWiz duets are an absolute mother lode of great versions. Tim Rogers and Rebecca Barnard’s Stop Dragging My Heart Around; Clare Bowditch and Tex Perkins’ Fairytale of New York for instance

[@bossdog1480]

Paul usually puts you straight into the story in the first 'Paragraph' so to speak. He usually deals with family and Indigenous matters. The words in this version were changed a bit not to upset the Alphabet people. Gravy generally is made from reducing the left over 'juice' from the cooked meat. Adding flour, wine is fairly normal. Tomato sauce is probably an Aussie thing since we use so much of it.

About this guy , who looks like he’s going to jail in 2024 but he has this cult following who will not hear a word against him - I’m afraid I couldn’t resist .. 🙄 👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

​@jaymacgee_A_Bawbag_Blethering I received a 24 hour " Comments Paused " from the YT folk & was glad it was on a Sunday morning when I spend most of the day & night watching American 🏈 . The Bot can strike at anytime !

@@jaymacgee_A_Bawbag_Blethering I'd rather stick a fork into my eye than listen to Russell Brand for anymore than a quarter of a second. Do not know how you put yourself through that.

Isn't it different to hear a song from a person in prison that actually shows you they are a normal person

The looks I'd get at the supermarket walking in wearing my disposalable bio hazard suit fully enclosed mask suit and gloves with a tool belt full of spare gloves N95 mask's to hand out to people (we had box's and box's thousands of them for entering work site's)hand sanitizer and antibacterial wipes for everything that went into the trolley people would stay well away from me even though i was the safest person to be near
