eddie did a song on JJJ (a radio station) one day it was called "why gays dont get married" or something along those lines....it was so funny but i cant seem to find it. If anyone knows it can you please reply with the correct name or a link. Thanks.
It s Eton actually Anthony (Rhodes scholars in training). You'll have to come to my house in the south of france for summer and we'll discuss your portfolio
The logic that Aboriginal people will never reach affluence is thankfully being thwarted as we speak, but the argument is so spot on. You can't piss around with racism regardless of who your friends are.
I can certainly understand why some people would be offended by this...but I love it. Firstly for that particular phrase 'some of my best friends...' I hear it all the time. It's like 'no offence, but..' or 'im not racist, but...'.
And this raises SO many issues. Of underlying racism, of disadvantage, ignorance, and also the ridiculous idea that you're only "really" Aboriginal if you adhere to the popular idea of what Aboriginal cultures are.

Okay, well that was just crap..it's not even funny at all. He can sing, should just stick to playing covers cause song writing clearly isn't his thing

This just shows how much politically correctness rules society. Im sorry but aboriginals are the most racist (excuse the language) cunts, out there and yet whites get called racist. Fucking be an aussie!!! Laid back and fun and laugh!! YOU GOTTA LOVE THE AUSSIE!!!!!

how the fuck is there a continent ruled by europeans in the middle of the god damn south pacific??? how dare you accuse aboriginals being racist agaisnt whites when you committed ethnic cleansing and stole their damn country, and still have to deal with racist russell crowe wannabes like yourself. make like a boomerang and go back to england!

yeah, what a terrible analogy, if you're comparing them to a boomerang its like saying someone forced them over to australia, they hit some cunts and went straight back, then later whoever sent them over came to collect all the cunts that they hit, and then ate all the cunts and shit cunt cunt swear words bitch penis
yes, its pretty offensive in parts but you have to remember that it is just a joke! he knew what he was writting, those aren't his views he wrote a song about how other people act! he doesn't nessecarily agree with what hes saying he's doing comedy about what SOME people think!
Why do people have to unfunny stuff. Yes it may be racist but he's just singing based on the general beliefs of us perthies. lol. its funny. cos 97.5% of what hes singing is what we think of aboriginals. i love the sarcasm. lol lol loooool.
As funny as it is, it is also perhaps one of the most searing indictments of racism, disenfranchisement and cultural bias against aboriginal people I have ever seen. It did more than a dozen tomes. And b/c some of these conditions and views (think America and American Indians) I see his audiences looking VERY uncomfortable if entertained.
What makes the song so funny/incisive and biting is the immediate realization that none of these things could actually be true and none of the positive things (such as their appearance or culture) are seen as positive or are made into "primitive" or less than.
i have black friends so i can say whatever i like about them sure their people i hate but its justified because their my mates so if i say their lazy or useless or worse or you have to watch them cos they'll steal your wife's purse no one can say that I'm racist at all cos some of my best friends are aborig....... one of my best friends is abor............ none of my best friends are aboriginal
my white friends make a fuss they wish the were indigenous there jealous of their delicate hands their perfect teeth and permanent tan they wish they were athletic they wish they were smart they wish they had great taste in contemporary art they wish there spiritual life weren't so small not like my friends who are aboriginal we go to the opera contemporary dance we spend our holidays in regional France so busy having a hell of a time so grateful that these friends are mine
My name is really Dwayne, I doubt it's about me, but wow.
