[chameleonfrog1]

All the best Todd, my thoughts are with you. I really enjoyed your acceptance speech at the ARIAs in 2008

[plustwik]

It's daggy, but sexy at the same time.

I think they should have killed 'Castro in the alleyway' when they had the chance!

[misstiqee]

Legend! Best NZ band ever! Wish i could find a cd of their song on 2 buy

[usheryeah1000]

silly aussies disliking this!!!

[ryansmellsbad]

@usheryeah1000

It ain't us Aussies mate. We'll take good NZ music over most other things any day of the week.

[larzhendrixson]

A great video,this is so nice,it made me cry,I love that feeling somtimes,memouries live on inside us untill we die.I feel all choked up.Please don't hate James Reyne though,he is a good man who probably did'nt realise his voice would over power the weed heads.Look dragon are mouth breathers compared to noble beautiful refined James Reyne,''oh sorry to reyne on your dragon parade!

[honkytonk25]

One of my favourites!

[nthqlndr]

Saw Marc Hunter & Dragon, live, a couple of months before Marc died. I'd just met the man I ended up marrying. This is OUR song. Not very romantic, but it's the first song we danced to. Thanks for posting this vid.

[tekNiqueAU]

Dragon has soo many CLASSIC SONGS.

[Us3DownUnder]

[mika7367]

Hellloooooooo!!!!



[bonditransfer]

What a band! Marc Hunter AND Robert Taylor? Great guys...great musicians!

[chronosca3]

I wonder how many angels died to make the lead vocalist's suit..

I dont actually care, I'd love that suit.

[chameleonfrog1]

Someone complained about the wrong speed for the video but normal speed for the vocals. Well, this version was at the correct speed. And the video clip for this song on 'Dragon Mix' is also problem free.

[danichols49]

Rossco Taylor on vocals!

[animaze86]

who the fuck dislikes this??? lol

[jasonyoungdenmark]

@animaze86

I hope the dislikers just hate the recording, and not the song....

[warialdasue]

@animaze86

some dickheads



[1Knowledgeable]

@animaze86 Music just doent get better than this. I always thought that they were Aussies! !!!!!! Sorry NZ, but we have adopted them.!

[TheUndertaker575]

[phil123711]

I saw Dragon many times. Now I recon this is a national anthem in pubs. Everyone knows the words.

[MsSunny4eva]

What a song!!! :)))))

[OSOHTS]

wow i heard this song on singstar and i never realised that they were new zealand

[gagabong]

I've never heard of Dragon before (and I am 40), but than I saw the movie "The Ferryman" (2007) where they played it. I was electrified LOL. In Europe this band is totally unknown. I couldn't even load this video from youtube in fucking Germany (not available in you country!), had to use a VPN-service. Assholes. This band is great. I hope to find some songs of them in mp3 on the internet. Cheers!

[wazup4251]

Love it

[julesian]

The Rolling Stones of the Southern Hemisphere....!!!!

[martindemo]

@julesian Not quite the stones...Dragon had more complex harmonies.

both would deliver 100% live

[julesian]

@martindemo

yeah, not quite to be sure...but the swagger and mischief is similar...and Marc had a great voice. cheers

[TheBelieveroflove]

i love this song when im wasted.

[gordonkylee]

sounds like missbananaindapuss is suffering from inferiority complex

[onlynewzealand]

Bass Player And Lead Singer Are My Second Cousins

[ClassicRockTeen1995]

Does anyone else reckon the guitarist has an uncanny resemblance to Queen's guitarist Brian May?

[argente69]

love this song

[TheBirdinthe]

wish I went to see them in concert...my sister and her husband went and said the lead singer was really drunk on stage...good on him for having a great time!

[mittim30]

Bring's backs memory's what great song!

[justorota]

[missbanana4lyf]

@justorota KIWI BAND!!!!!

AUSTRALIA HAS CRAP SINGERS MATE!

[castrol76]

@missbanana4lyf well the term "MATE" is Australian. And what a stupid thing to say in the first place.....there are plenty of good singers from all over the world.

[missbanana4lyf]

@castrol76 fuck up you lil kunt!

[justorota]

[gordonkylee]

@missbanana4lyf NZ biggest contribution to the music industry was that tripe from footrot flats

[mridrick]

@gordonkylee You mean Dave Dobyn and The Herbs? Slice of heaven. Thats the pinacle of NZ music! It's oarsome

[akacia123]

this song rocks my school arahoe r very good at singing it

[chameleonfrog1]

Marc - peril to anyone who would 'try to hold you back babe.' Your music lives in my heart. Gone but not forgotten.

[MrAndrewc760]

dragon were always kiwis always will be kiwis and astrailians shoud stop claiming kiwi talent as there own

[Dragonlady66]

@MrAndrewc760 ahhh stop whining, learn to spell and fucking take Russell back home OK!?!

[TheTheotherfoot]

@Dragonlady66 not ever!! you could'nt pay us enough to do that

[Dragonlady66]

@TheTheotherfoot ...please?....

[davewortho]

Ahhhhhhhhh, thanks for the memories!!! Good stuff. Better than some of the newer "pop" scene crap.

[Grazby]

New Zealand Band?

they might be from New Zealand, but they were living in Sydney, Australia when this was recorded and that's the mighty Terry Chambers from Swindon, England on drums.

Personally, i'd call them....by Legendary Band, Dragon!

;)

[fitzzay]

@Grazby they only live their cuz its warm and theas hot girls not like the bush pigs in NZ

[ThatThrashMetalGuy]

@Grazby correction. Kerry Jacobson

Hes our heavy metal band's manager and percussion teacher

[mika7367]

Yeh Playroom in '83 Gold Coast Aussieland. Sweet!.

[Neptuneman07]

[noexittoexist]

Thanks Dragon. I'll never forget you guys.

[channelpedronumber6]

Ah, Dragon at their very best in the 1970s. When we had real music talent topping the charts. Will we ever see such a thing again in the 2010s? =[

[MrWoodsyBoy]

[Guevaristas]
