This makes me reminisce on my childhood! I miss Men At Work so much and also how it felt to be a young kid with so much excitement! Thanks for posting!
Years ago a girl and I listened to this song. Bumped uglies, Kissed. Nuzzled noses. Whatever. Back then, having another human being was quite novel.. Remember the first girl you could hold and realize you had a whole human being that felt like "yours"? Hearing this again kills me. I think I miss her. Good stuff mate.
Thanks for the answer! That is cool, and Bob, I will say, Asians are the best wives, they are the best for love, friendship and loyalty, ur story is cool, and thanks again, long live ur marriage, I want soo bad for Beth and I to be able to go to Phi Phi Island in Thailand, saw a You Yube on that, and that place is beautiful....take care..
This song has always been a favorite of mine, as I was flying across the Pacific to go out and meet my then fiance from the Philippines, this song went thru my mind, it was the perfect backdrop to our love, we are now married and she also likes it, what was a shock was the video here, an Asian woman, I thought, "wow, at least we are trracking with the song right!" Is your wife Filipina or another SE Asian country?
I got into this song in the mid '80's while travelling to and around Oz and Thailand. Ended up marrying a Thai on a later trip. 23 years later still v happy together. Some songs stick in your mind when travelling. Probably because in those days a lot of the airlines played the same stuff on the v limited onboard music systems then. "Big Log" by Robert Plant was another of my faves.
@michaelbethhk09 I HEARD THIS SONG 4 NOW THE FIRST TIME AND I CAN SAY THIS IS A NICE CHILLING SONG AND BY DA WAY IM ALSO MARRIED WITH A PINAY I LIKE THE PLACES AND PPLS THERE SOON ILL STAY THERE WITH MY HOUSE AND FAMILY GOD BLESS U
Can anyone tell me which movie this song appears in, I watched it recently but cannot remember which it was, I think it played during the end credits.
As a teen in the eighties this was the best slow song you could request if you wanted to be overly friendly with your dance partner because it is so long.
what a beautiful song to long to be a radio commercial hit, still should have been man the best on buisness as usueal album man do i remember it personal lyrics, reflective a life story from a kid, young man to getting older it ranks up there with six months in a leaky boat by split endz that sax is stunnning mel colins on the early alan parsons albums perhaps but most likely colin hay outstanding regardless.
Even though this song was never released as a single off the "Business as Usual" album, it has always been my favorite out of any of their songs. It has a great final track placement on that album. I actually got to see Colin perform this song solo during an acoustic set at a very small venue several years ago.
OMG!!!! she is smoking..she could kill somebody with 2nd hand smoking...call the cops and throw away the key!!!!! what sort of message is she sending to that kid squatting on the beach?
revive this group!!! man thier worthy of that with thier raspy like deep soul sound they hit the spot i tell ya. i needed some of that thanks for the vid.
I'm going to assume that this is Brighton & Hastings in the U.K. .......not Australia. I've been to both of those beaches "down under" (they are close to Melbourne) and they look nothing like what's in your video. Very nice video, though, and fantastic song!
11 ppl are most likely "landlubbers" Really great tune for ages!
