Performing a song that they wrote especially for TEDxSydney 2013, John Butler and Jeff Lang sing "Right Direction".
From busking the streets of Western Australia and becoming Australia's most successful independent artist ever, John Butler has taken his brand of roots/rock music to all corners of the world and remains an icon and inspiration for independent and socially active musicians everywhere.
Australian-based musician Jeff Lang has earned worldwide acclaim as a virtuosic guitarist, a dynamic songwriter and a startlingly distinctive live performer. Blending rock, roots, folk, blues, ballads, instrumentals, improvisation and a devastatingly high level of musicality, Jeff Lang is a singularly unique performer in the world.
In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)

Butler has always been one of my greatest influences. He has never seemed to disappoint, only amaze.

Saw Lang at Bluesfest in 97, he had the kick going first. Then saw Butler in London in the tiniest of rooms in 2001. Love they doing work together.

Tell me girl have we been fooling Our good selves around Thinking Disney wrote our future And we were so profound Cuz we know there's more to living Than wasting all our time Try to get the rhythm to work Make our two parts right/wind? Thinking about the way it's feeling Like trying to draw blood Would you say they left me reeling? We're treading water in a flood I have come to greet you, lover And I catch you rolling eyes It's like we do not see each other We just watch the water rise Are we heading? Heading in the right direction Are we forgetting? We gotta keep our connection Are we heading? I'm not willing to walk away from All that we've built And the rest of time wear us away Corrosion and the guilt I recall those two young lovers In the all night bar Dancing to The Neville Brothers I still think that's who we are Watch the world outside Play Russian Roulette So much to remember I've been trying to forget I didn't think I'd be So far out on my debt Are we heading? Heading in the right direction Are we forgetting? We gotta keep our connection Are we heading? Heading in the right direction Are we forgetting? We gotta keep our connection Are we heading? Heading in the right direction Are we forgetting? We gotta keep our connection (yeah) Are we heading? (hey!) Heading in the right direction Are we forgetting? We gotta keep our connection Keep our connection Keep our connection
