I'm from the US and it's really sad that bands like this don't get more play over here. It's July 2021, I've just heard this for the first time...and it immediately became one of those songs I've played on repeat an embarrassing amount of times. Things this good shouldn't be hidden down under. Thank for the truly awesome tunes mates!

[@tapd1234]

If this song doesn't make the hottest 100 this year it will be a f&*king disgrace. What a song! And what a great aussie band.

Chris Thorogood Amen! 🤙🏼

[@paulgolder8529]

[@80nodrog]

It was my No.1 vote

[@vanessalee6367]

i actually can't tell the difference between the recorded and the live version, absolutely amazing

[@Emmsies_OuO]

So amazing! The live performance sounds just as good, if not better than, the recorded version!

[@GaleBeatbox]

Everytime I've heard this today I've spaced out and forgot this is a live version, flawless! 🤙

[@sheddon.]

Surely the first time finger tapping has been done on a Triple J live recording ? also Oscar is incredible, perfect sense of melody and technicality

[@Dfeneck]

Sometimes I just wake up hearing this song and have to come and listen to it a few times. Such a beautiful copy.

[@Dylz52]

Loving the lead guitar! That was some nice tapping at 3:06

[@wobblysauce]

Got a feeling he is a metal guitarist playing a pop song.

[@allanpiacente]

@@wobblysauce Thought the same, but he really makes it fit tastefully

[@infamous6193]

Simply amazing! An all around superb band! Please come to Southern California!!!! 🇺🇸🇦🇺

[@Hitthatvape]

Probably the greatest song ever written.

[@Panthercholo]

Just 100% pure good music!

[@mertergulec5567]

It was 2017 when I went to US to travel. While I was doing some grocery shopping, I heard this guy singing :). Since then, Ima big fan of this band.

[@annalieseredlich5481]

True lovers In a different time A different place We could have been True lovers In a different life A different space We would have been You caught me looking and you know I couldn't look away You arrived on the arm of another So I tried not to think, I just couldn't stay In the room I forgot I remember I remember Then I was alone so avoiding you was all I tried Someone said you were a friend of Frankie's brother Then in the hallway it was only you I couldn't hide I was lost in the light True lovers In a different time A different place We could have been True lovers In a different life, a different space It was hard not seeing That the only thing between us Was the feelings of the ones we loved, the feelings of the ones we loved And it was hard just believing That the window there between us Was the feelings of the ones we loved, the feelings of the ones we loved True lovers In a different time A different place We could have been True lovers In a different life, a different space We would have been True lovers, in a different time, a different place We could have been True lovers True lovers True lovers True lovers True lovers Nothing on the outside Believing on the inside Nothing on the outside Believing on the inside We were leaving on the outside Dreaming on the inside Leaving on the outside On the outside

[@TheMrpatches557]

One of the best bands I’ve heard in a while

[@mattulence]

love love love this band. so good.

[@zekeboy24]

This song has a very 80's vibe to it for me

[@stolky19]

Absolutely mate.. Nobody ever mentions this, but so true.. probably the synth amongst other things ..for me: they're like an amped-up Paper Kites, with a good portion of Boy & Bear, the feel-good harmonies of America ..& occasional psychodelic rock moments akin to Led Zeppelin haha!

[@petersharkeytube]

Best new track out there right now

[@richsalt9466]

This!!!!! This, The Occupants, City Calm Down,The Jezabels, The Killers are all that is right with todays music...... HUJ CHOON!

[@Fernand07777]

[@richsalt9466]

Ranga beard, collar-less skivvy and 1970's watch combo!!!!! High risk posturing, but the vocals won out anyway. Thumbs up.
