[bbnsw44]

Was my favorite song then and stll is now...so many memories return when i listen to this :)

[jacofi]

I heard Brian doing sound tests at the THEN "International Sports Centre" in Newcastle in the early 70's, I so wanted to be in the Audience,

Those words still mean as much to me today as they did then!

It's Now Knights Stadium!

Gingerman will always be my Favaourite

[richardpain99]

This is a beautiful song.

[Tish1023]

Saw Brian perform a couple of years back and he is as awesome today as every, I was only 14 when this came out...wow

[Tooey62]

What a song, what a singer...absolutely awesome. Luv him to bits.

[1965kerrie]

Seeing Brian & Russell Morris on the 29th of May. OMG I can't wait!!!! <3

[robjclark1]

I've seen him several times, once with Glen Shorrock, wow they are true talents. I listened to them during my teen years and am glad I knew what real music was, not like the crap they play these days!!!

[creativeengineer]

In one word... BRILLIANT

[FlawShow]

I took my girlfriend to see Brian in Canberra in 1972. I've never forgotten the gig....or her. Where are you now, Linda?

[splitpinband]

I met Brian's Son Jason once.... God he's hot. I wish he was gay or at least willing to experiment...

[ganz48]

Thanks RetroDood=Great Song/Great Voice ..........

[vgreencan]

one of the best aussie songs ever.....

[CHD221185]

What an aussie legend. An awesome beard to boot!

[westeh]

@CHD221185 .....what does to "boot" mean ?

[erosromantic]

god - I was as old as my youngest when this came out - seems like last week ... perhaps not

[malfirst]

oh CAD!! You never disappointed me. what a beautiful voice .you sing from your heart. I'll listen to yours any time of the day. Go CAD go!!

[mastertusk]

i was a bit younger than this dudes best days...but I remember this song from when I was about 9 and later went to see him at the Dee Why RSL (which is a pretty decent venue in the northern beaches area of Sydney) looks the same except grey long hair and beard..but sounded great he looked like he enjoyed as much as the crowd...

[mastertusk]

@mastertusk It was a great gig! except for the dude sitting down at the tables and telling me to sit down so he could see...what a wanker...hope it wasnt you!

[bortho101]

he sung this song the other night on rockquiz. sounds the same now as he does in this clip. brilliant

[Smoofee]

iTS still as great today as it was back then. I remember an industry heavy saying that Brian Cadd was the best talent

that Australia had...but he walked away at his peak!

[mastertusk]

@Smoofee He walked to the US of A as far as I know,,,and didnt become a busker...

[jhpowlton]

@Smoofee He put years into producing aussie talent. I think he achieved what he wanted to and then decided to give others the benefit of his experience. Without Bian Cadd you would not have hald the talent that made it past their first hit single!

[possessivetoast]

@Smoofee how wise...

[heymargaretlook]

Brian could have done areally story telling video for this song in 72 a shame they didn't.

[heymargaretlook]

Aussie Classic

[shorn70]

Nice song, although one could easily pardody this into a ditty about trying to avoid going to the dentist. Gingavitis Man

[Wellveryinteresting]

"Gingavitis man, leave me alone!" LMAO!
