I met donna last week and she is truly a beautiful person. Her son is quite the little entertainer as well. He played michael jackson's billy jean and did some awesome michael jackson moves. cutest thing I've ever seen.
This is cool shit! I just found the waifs...( wait, that sounds weird...) I'll never hear this on our radio stations! As much as youtube pisses me off, we get to be introduced to groups like this. My cup is half full! Thanx for posting this. :)
Jerichoooonly, this is real music. I can only imagine what kind of souless, mass-produced, electronic 'music' you listen to. You're entitled to your opinion yes, but your opinion is shit. Ben Bell, Bristol, England
@bellben75 I Bloody couldn't agree with you more ben (It is ben right?) There is far too much electronic autotuned crap going around clogging up the radio and tv. I'm glad that some people still like real music!!!
I love this! American music has gone to hell. I accidentally stumbled upon an article about the singer while looking for an article on the world's fattest mother. This is better.

And i love that harmonica tune. Doesnt sound like some bored person sitting under the shade in the desert with no water playing a harmonica which is often what i associate that instrument with hehe
I love this song, it is so special to me! It was played at my uncles funeral as we were walking in, and now every time i hear it it reminds me of him. It gives me o many feelings! X
I LOVE this band. Great stuff. So glad our local station (KFOG in San Francisco) started playing the heck out of them. This is a great song and Flesh and Blood is too (hint hint--someone post that one too please?). The Aussies are an artistic lot, and you make great movies too, although too few of them--make more!
I did this song a few years back for a group song, infront of family and friends. We must of rehearsed it so many times, the teacher got so sick of it, and so did all the other classes. But it was so worth it. Year 12 Senior Music Class rocked everyones socks off, so to speak. Brilliant song. We even got all the boys involved too.. Love it, Love it
True, what more to say--well OK, I can think of a few things! :D)
What a great band, and what a great song. I love the harmonica solo. It's so much fun.
The message is interesting too. It seems to concern spiritual guidance, but it says both that most of us need guidance or counsel from outside ourselves sometimes, but also that it's up to you to steer your own ship. I find that very neat.
Hey Waifs: come back to San Francisco please!!! :D)
They had a famous tv show called neighbours, Russel Crow is the main role of a skinhead movie and Nicole kidman is blonde with blue eyes, that may confused you.
Sorry for my english, actually I'm from a non engish speaking country, not Australia or Austria.
Love this song! Thank you Waifs for this great tune! I love the line "Sometimes I need a lighthouse for my own. It gets so dark I can't see where I'm going." That's a brilliant lyric! If you're reading Waifs, you have a fan in me. Love ya!
Well then it's not 'bad English' it's that you don't like the accent. And if you don't like our Government's policy then say it, don't even bring Hitler into this. And as if you aren't from an English speaking country, because you only said it because you were bagging other people's English, and got embarrassed when it was pointed out that you can't soekk. Dick head.
Austrian isn't Australian JacKass00001. You may have learned your history, but you didn't oay attention to geograpghy. Why would associate Hitler with Australia?
@dirtysandgroper Why don't you just say Australia you prick, or are you that insecure you have to write the Western Part down, in your deserate need to "claim" them.

When they supported billy bragg in Liverpool my friend and I cheered them on, shouting out our fave songs, which they obligingly sang. Met them at stage door. so friendly chatting away. Awesome!
