[@GereDJ2]

Australian band. Classic case of a great tune that slipped through the cracks. As a Southern California, FM DJ most of my life, I played this not only when it came out, but as sort of a "Ringer" song years later at other stations because it was a great tune the competition missed and had forgotten about. Whenever I played it, I always had listeners calling asking who it was? Has that great 70s energy and licks. We still play it today and the same thing happens.

My favorite song. EVER. I cannot COUNT the amount of times I've listened to it. I never tire of it. Even after all these years. So tense, emotional. Maybe it's the minor key it was written in. :)

I was born in 1986, so of course most of my early memories are from the 90s. While I know those that grew up in the 70s have a much deeper experience of that decade, I still feel like this song and video invites me in to that decade for a little bit. That’s a sign on how you know it’s a good song…it can take people like me and invite them to that decade for a bit, while those that grew up in the 70s can continue to reflect on that decade with songs like this. Hopefully this made some sort of sense.
