You’ll probably hear this a few times, but he is apparently singing about the time he slept with his best friend’s girlfriend and the fallout from that. He can certainly convey the pain! Another he did on Like a Version was Tina Arena’s song, Chains. Incredible version.

Yep that is certainly the rumour and while it’s most likely true, it’s not been confirmed- it’s more a case of people guessing based on Matt’s words that he “had a fallout with a mate.. and did something stupid” .. we do know that Matt was just a teenager at the time and that the song is about personal growth after remorse and guilt.

Matt not only sings and plays guitar he also plays multiple instruments including drums, piano, flute and synth. In his second studio album, RAINBOW VALLEY, Matt plays every instrument and does all the vocals for the entire album! His vocals range from D2 to G5, he can do a solid baritone to high tenor and a stunning falsetto to boot!

Vanessa kills it! Please react to it. Also, in Oz, ARIA (Australian Recording Industry Association) is pronounced like the Italian word 'aria' in opera. Glad to have another Aussie week back again.

Ahhh, Matt Corby, what a great way to start Aussie Week 5. I remember seeing him on Australian Idol and thinking this kid is talented, but the pap that he was performing on the show almost made me cringe. For this reason, I never paid Corby another thought after that season of Australian Idol finished. That was until this Like A Version was performed, I then paid him more attention. Matt Corby is a prodigious talent and has gone from success to success, which have been grounded in hard work and by surrounding himself with good musicians. I can't recall seeing a performance from him that I didn't like (all on KZbin, I have never seen Corby live). I hope to see him at a festival or other live gig, sometime in the future.

Wow. First comparison I've heard to Ren but you're right. The first time I saw him sing as a kid I thought he was channelling Jeff Buckley. I saw Matt play a couple of weeks ago and he hasn't lost any of his magic. The performance is still with me. He plays over 20 instruments, writes everything and is just so purely talented. SO looking forward to you jumping down this hole 😊

Hi Thamesman, another great review. In this song 'brother' is a reference to a good mate of his. The way Matt describes it the pain relates to guilt he feels for something bad he did to his 'brother'. He doesn't give exact details, but its' believed he cheated with his mate's girlfriend. "Hiding under the covers with no one else to blame." It's worth another listen, with that as background. I think this intimate personal setting was perfect for this song, rather than a stadium.

I don't know if he would feel this bad if it were just a mate's girlfriend. My guess is that it was his best friend's wife.

Its like that old saying you don't know what you've got till its gone he probably regrets it and misses his friend.
