[doot100]

Sorry, Wayne Mason, Nature is pretty damn good too.

[doot100]

This is still the best ever NZ pop song. I can remember where I was and what I was doing when I heard it on the radio for the first time. Go Th'Dudes and Dave Dobbyn.

[Warstub]

Everyone in New Zealand has the exact same memory: Standing in a garage drinking beer and everyone around is singing songs by Th' Dudes.

[zacandmillie]

@Warstub Too true Bro, especially if your grew up in the 70s and 80s in Auckland. Papakura for ever!

[bourketony]

@zacandmillie  I did mate. Forge night club.

[kiwikidzach]

[lukenews]

@zutal0rs Yes it is Dave Dobbyn as lead singer. He is a legend.

[CBeatgirl]

A scene all too familiar in New Zealand: a fantastic band, playing to an empty venue!!

[jacque123ish]

@CBeatgirl i think its a music video, but valid point nevertheless

[buddha860]

I was at westlake boys high school in 79 and these guys came and sang this and a couple of other songs to us in the hall. Golden harvest were with them and played I need your love and a couple of others. The golden harvest guitarist played some shit with his teeth and we all just thought it was the greatest . I moved to Aus not long after but my heart still remembers, Fucken Ace man!

[zukobaby1]

love it.reminds me of my youth.dont get good music like this anymore or in uk!!

[williamshatnerspants]

Dave played this last Friday night in Parnell, simply awesome.....

[siasti]

The Dudes are as close as NZ will ever come to producing a group like the Rolling Stones...(I mean that as a compliment)

[wavecrashes]

missing teeth

mullet

kiwis jersey

stubbies on

half cut

another smoke another can another talk baybe

[wastersoph]

[gooberwench]

Oh jeez - how can a young kid like that play a guitar like that - still gets my heartstrings *hard* after 30 years. <3 <3 <3

[Theasama0091]

I need to find the lyrics!

[Guevaristas]

saw them in the school hall for $1 , must have been 1978-or 79

[Hori71]

Great kiwi tunes....great piece of drumming too....

[iluvretro]

oh yeah!!!! bloody brilliant! Now THIS is what I call true blue Kiwi music! Love it!

[MrsLisaJackson]

Good song :) You don't find many 14 year olds saying that these days lol.

[angelena003]

awesome :)

[lizdylanboykie]

dave dobbyn looks so young!  Love this song.

[steve6607]

This is an undiscovered classic for the rest of the world.I loved th' dudes and dd smash when i lived in n.z.I must of added this track about 50 times or more on facebook.

[skinnyboifat]

[xholdehqx]

[MsSnoopy62]

[toksandman]

C'mon Kiwis come home even for a visit, meet you at the pub :)

[wyongwarrior11]

GREAT KIWI SONG

[adelaide6419]

i love this song on the outrageous fortune

[teaj84]

Dobbo is a national treasure!!!

[toksandman]

One of the best Kiwi song ever

[zzqqwwer]

Can't say Im a big fan of guns and poses this how ever is awesome a kiwi classic

[MrDonsimm]

ohhhh yeah mean couzin mean

[19David78]

Any Gn'R fans here?

I often thought the intro to this song sounds exactly like the outro from Rocket Queen.

About the 4 min mark when Axle starts singing "I see you standing..."

??

(Although th' dudes released theirs first ;)

[alimoure]

Am I getting old or dont they make music like this anymore? GO DAVE what a Kiwi talent

[Linkypinky100]

Your not getting old. they dont make music like this any more.

[geniusmarketing08]

WOWEE- even in his early days, Dave had the goods for sure- talent just waiting to burst the seams! Davo's a long way from the streets of Glen Innes where he grew up (incidentally me too)- he was a familiar sight there a few years ago. A true home grown hero

[nitrocircus785]

perfection!

[colossusot]

I know what you mean.... I get up in the morn on the wkends and jam this out hard!

Along with some herbs, some dd smash, some sailor and Im ready!

[1904bear]

Bita good old kiwiana !! Fuck ya dnt get timeless music like this anymore :) WHAT A BEAUUUTTTYY !!!

[manawkt]

summer + couple-a-beers + this song = heaven

[KristyyLeigh]

Classic..This song always reminds me of summer.

[acorpseonawall]

reminds me of outrageous fortune. love this!

[TheSpawnmega]

daves a legend...dave u can have my mum she suki suki long timez :D

[whiteybird]

What a Great Kiwi Icon, Go Dave! Cheers!

Check out Some of Corben Simpson's You Tube Clips:)

[HysteriaDefLeppard]

Fucking love this song.

New Zealand and Dave Dobbyn should be credited for Napoleon Dynamite. I think its obvious where the idea came from...

[SinkingGuitar]

You know i always thought Dobbyn looked like Yoda.... Yoda's green though.

[mrmanjushri]

came to westlake Highschool in NZ in 79 I was in 3rd form. Moved to Australia in August 79 just after that, they were fuckin good, Fucken love all you kiwi's!

[ptysnz]

Best NZ song ever written, worst video ever made!..

[dogonaut]

The best ever? Goodness.

[HiphopHeads2]

fuck would u know?? not classic nz rock by the sounds of it u aint a kiwi i take it an aussie shit talker i reckon

[GypsyDrowner]

It is a epic song, its grown on me alot

[nzbf01]

fuckin good song!

[rychissnz]

KIWIANA! Go Dave.

[whiteybird]

Dave, you rock man!

[nedmobile]

NEVER,,,,

[nedmobile]

YES you are wrong the best bands to come out of new zealand are split enz , headless chickens , and the swingers

[mpl34ss]

Well you are also wrong the best band to come out of New Zealand is Crowded House... but nice try

[robyonder]

fuck he's got hair .

man this was a long time ago , best band to come out of NZ i reckon , but i could be wrong .

[ljtorano]

Dave is definately in top 5 male singer song writers of New Zealand

[BrickUnit]

so much potential

[saanzacs]

NICE!!!!!! Kiwi music the way it should be!!!!!

[siasti]

Dave wrote a bunch of great songs but none better than this classic. (I'm only guessing that Dave wrote it - feel free to correct me)

[ngati1one]

Choice as bro!

[dikless222]

1978 in fact. And did you know this song was originally titled 'Quite Frankly'?

[DarynKaraitiana]

Awesome ;-)

[DrSkankeyHo]

Dave you are proof Kiwi's can and always will be some of the unsung greats locally or globally I'am rapt.

[truekiwijoker]

LOL! Dave Dobbyn looks like Napoleon Dynamite.

[braydenr]

naw Napoleon Dynamite looks like Dave Dobbyn... he was there first haha

[LXC12]

kiwi music.. it doesn't get any better than this :)

[BrickUnit]

ever seen music like this nowadays?...wanna know why?...because music nowdays is shit

[siasti]

Much music is being churned out but so much of it is a poor imitation of what has been done better in the past. The same goes for movies. True originality is hard to come by these days, that's for sure.

[tfh962]

All the love is gone in the music today. I know what you are saying. I want to live back in these times man. Everyone had more passion back then. And jezz, like they say, you could leave the keys in the car.

[BrickUnit]

and its all because the music industry is a bunch of right wing money wanting pigs, they reject talent for looks and thats why you dont see great bands on TV

[PteNelsonRCR]

@BrickUnit  agreed. As with everything, don't make them like they used to lol

[stevethemus71]

@BrickUnit Shit yeah, oldskool Dobbyn is the man

[LordDalziel]

@BrickUnit ...I agree 100%

[jimmythacricket1]

@BrickUnit you do, it's just harder to find. To be honest though, you know you're getting old when you don't like any of todays music.

[cherbro76]

kiwi in oz,and i love to jam this song down there throats,lol

[siasti]

A song that many NZ adults will have drilled into their brains by Radio Hauraki...

[angisman]

peter urlich looked like such a homo back then
