Sunday Night - Jimmy Barnes - Working Class Man

[@Blackscorpion1963]

Jimmy Barnes energy levels during his time in Cold Chisel and his solo career were off the scale make no error. Chisel could not keep up with him and when he was solo he drove his band so hard even they couldn't keep up with him. Nobody could. At times I don't think he could even keep up with himself. This man's energy knew no limits and he probably had more power and endurance than most professional athletes in Australia at the time. When you listen to the man speak there's no B.S. at all just honesty and there's no exaggerating or stretching the truth - it's simply straight up to the core. You can choose to believe it or not. If you want the epiphany of courage Jimmy Barnes is the best example of one you'll find on the planet. This is an awesome report.

I am finally at page 367 of 488 pages of Working Class Man. And I am so inspired by Jimmy Barnes Story he is an example of a Survivor of horrific abuse and has succeeded in pulling his life together Jane you are the best thing that has ever happened for jimmy you are his rock.

Elizabeth was fine blame yourself. Stopped liking you when you demonised Elizabeth. I went to Elizabeth West High. Was fine. You were the problem

My older brother was in Jimmy's form 1 class he showed me his school class photo Elizabeth like any other part of Australia is what you make of it , I don't recall the violence to that level we lived in housing commission homes we had our good and bad times never written a book about it ..

[@merranthompson9096]

And for jimmy your second book has helped me understand where I have been and where I am now in life I am a 3rd generation Australian from Scottish and Irish background and after reading both your books it has enabled me to understand my Scottish and Irish background.

It is not enough to say that Jimmy Barnes is a national treasure. The way his songs encapsulate life as a working person in Australia is genius. His fans come from a broad spectrum of Australia - but when they are at a concert they are one. Jane Barnes is a witty, devoted and intelligent woman who has been the rock behind Jimmy. Yes, Jimmy it's been a hell of a time, but you've got a lot left to contribute. Jimmy Barnes is a true Australian hero.
