This song just captures an Australian Summer in the 90's. It truly is, along with some of Chisel's, Oz Crawl and Men at Work's guitar riffs, the essence of Oz in music. Love it! :)
My step father has This is not the way home on CD, I remember hearing it as a 10 year old boy. Last Thursday my mother lent me the CD and I copied it to my MP3 player, I love the album, and I love this song, it's truly awesome, The Cruel Sea are awesome.
@drumdust I'm not surprised that Triple J played this in 1991, of course I didn't even listen to them then. Now I fear Triple J isn't what is used to be 10 years ago. I can't remember when I last heard Triple J playing The Cruel Sea.
@Lachlant1984 i disagree triplej is just playing new wicked aussie music everyday. i do think that it is crazy that all the other commercial 94.5 type stations arent playing wicked old school aussie music like this not just fucking jimmy barnes.
@m1nn1e76 That song's on The Honeymoon Is Over isn't it? I just bought that CD a few weeks ago and I quite like it, but personally I prefer This Is Not The Way Home.
great track man. Love this number

Reminds me of summer back in the '90's & Triple J.
A few buckets, a few mates, some backyard cricket, good times.

I used to shove this cassette in the old HJ and listen to this track cruising up Mona Vale road to catch some early waves at Newie. Great times.

The version of 4 on "The best of" is a re-recording. This version, the best, only appears on the album "This is not the way home"
