The Sunnyboys - 'Alone With You' (1981 single with lyrics)

[@kelseymariel2127]

Wow, never heard this before. You Australians really did put out the best music in the 80’s. INXS and Hoodoo Gurus alone make it the best.

[@shanedallachy5450]

Huge Hit here in Australia

[@sniper10666]

You living under a rock this is classic Aussie rock

[@The-Real-Spaniard]

Cold Chisel, The Angels, AC/DC, Split Enz just to name a few more the rock scene was the best in Australia in the early 80s

[@nelliesilvers1210]

Divinyls, The Party Boys, Aussie Crawl, The Angels, AC/DC (good ol' Bon was a Freo boy)....we had a heap of epic music come out in the 80s for sure👌🏻. Edit- my prime years were the 90s as was a teen then and I'm a metal head at heart but you can't listen to this hit without cranking those speakers.
