[andord123]

[lahe777]

Buen Tempo, Nice tempo

[gnrdp]

[ringowasbest]

[cochranexyz]

Man, this looks like such a fun band to be part of.

[zumerian]

[etouchqa]

good



[FraserM817]

I get goosebumps at 1:09 :D

[DathAgba]

best version of the song, someone know if theres a studio version of it?

[FraserM817]

The harmonies for "you better run, you better take cover" are pure magic.

[tesseract666]

should've been in gta sa too

[xxxstanley]

4:14 That shaking ass is LEGENDARY!!!

[twiggy890]

i wish i was Australian, just so i had the accent for this song :(

[MrTet68]

@twiggy890 he is originally Scottish as he let on when he did an awesome acoustic show at the Jazz Cafe London, you can still pick it up in his accent. His voice is however superb for the music.

[kombucha123]

@twiggy890 haha im australian, best part of having this accent!

[DoubleVisionandco]

Oh man what a great show! This is just more living proof Men at Work need to reform.

[XxYoruguaxX]

LOVE HIS VOICE!!!...well the WHOLE SONG!!! "GIANT"

[Airsupplyband]

Colin Gay you thief!!!! You stole this from KOOKABURA SITS IN THE OLD GUM TREE!!! You are going to jail!!! Don't worry Graham Russel and Russell Hitchcock of Air Supply will visit you in jail and sing Lost in Love  HA HA HA HA HA

[lancetop]

wow! look at 0:21 when Shelia E. opens the song with some impressive drumming!

[lancetop]

How fucking cool is that to see Ringo and Shelia E. drumming on the same stage!

[sarvihaara]

11 don't come from the Land Down Under...

[DogtownLord]

1:04 - Almost looks like Jim Carrey.

[ferraribeng]

Can anyone explain why there were 2 drummers?

Isn't the drums going to be very loud in the live environment with 2 drummers?

I just find this interesting because I have went to some concerts and the drum is always so loud. It is hard to control because they naturally produce high volume of sound. The drummers in the video didn't seem to be controlling the volume.

[richardaiken1]

@ferraribeng

Last time I saw the Moody Blues (about 2 or 3 years ago) they also had two kits going.

[TheFattHatt1943]

Ringo Starr AND Colin Hay in the same song?!

I think I found one of my favorite songs...

[tancharia]

best version ever :-D

[harryos]

Colin get that band and your arse back on tour to the UK

[wildganja]

reminds me when i was young and travelled the aussi land. best time ever.

[shizzlgehizzl]

Scrubs S03E13 when JD describes a noise in the Hospital :D

[MaurizioProvenzano]

John DOriaaan :D

[chabz2]

1:18 - 1:20 SHAKKEEE THAT ASSSS

[haywoodbadman10]

this song just reminds me of Scrubs when JD's son is about to be born in season 7 XD

[SuperLexas]

i can't find notes on drum :(

[SuperLexas]

I need this song notes

[Crazybenjiwoo]

@SuperLexas their everywhere on the net... its one of the biggest songs of the 80's...

[SuperLexas]

[jeffryalir]

buen video .

[jeffryalir]

buen video

[jeffryalir]

buen video

[openmicbelgium]

common Ringo Star is a really really bad drummer. They needed a second to back him up. And there is a difference between being cool and and asshole. Look it up in the dictionary; under asshole you'll see Bush jr and Ringo Starr.

[thethirdeye9]

@openmicbelgium that comment is a proof of two things, youre an asshole, and you never played drums in your life

[openmicbelgium]

@thethirdeye9 Reaaaallly? So you need 2 drummers for this song. Where did you learn to drum; fuckface college? 

[lesluthill0]

SE ME ENCHINA LA PIEL !!!

[TheBananaPancakesMan]

lol Ringo is such a shit drummer :P

[thethirdeye9]

@TheBananaPancakesMan that easy beat, is something you will never reach

[TheBananaPancakesMan]

@thethirdeye9 lol, i know i wont, but i dont play the drum so im not expecting to. nun the less he is still shit :P

[MrVin64]

very good performance..Colin still looks good, and Sheila hmmm she looks really good

[H00LiG4n66]

GREAT!

[a0c0d0c]

Ringo's such a crap drummer, Lord knows how he's still going.

[MickThompson93]

Ringo totally doenst look as an ex-beatle anymore :-P But he looks good.. very relaxed

[pyromohanzed]

incredible drum operation on this!

[camstorm]

Excellent

[woodman3451]

могли бы и играть по живее, все же 2 барабанщика - через чур, хотя девочка cool. I'm love Dandy, I.m hate's an America, I'm from Russia!!!!

[ThePrych]

[Jallorn]

@ThePrych They're bitter I hear.

[meandmyself83]

[xboxgeak]

[Aloi95]

588:11 like ration, nice xD

[discreditor]

rotten audience, all they had to shout was, 'because i come from the land of plenty!' and i think i heard 1 voice. Was it the first time they'd heard it?

[alexbart11]

great,only great

[tburnette]

Mark Rivera on the flute rocks!

[jijodecoatlicue]

The flute is the soul of this song, yeah

[123serioussam]

[Sprenzele]

[MrDoppler13]

[tyu198]

that gig... wow

[menswear2112]

Man, makes you wanna be there and sing your heart out!

Hands in the air and eyes closed, you shout: 'Do you come from a land down under?'

Sing, smile, dance, repeat.

[smacygra]

great song!!!RINGO!!!!

[callumAS]

The singer sounds Scottish(?)

[nejim4r10]

@callumAS he's from australia....

[Aftershock2K10]

@callumAS He was born in Scotland but eventually moved to Australia.

[lfgubrs]

@callumAS Scottish and Australia sounds pretty similar to each others:p

[tyu198]

@callumAS scottish with a but of aussie, he is scottish born....

kinda like the paulo nutini situation...

[indiasucksalways]

Check out that vocal at 3:44 - astounding.

[HunterTheDk]

ravelling in a fried-out combie On a hippie trail, head full of zombie I met a strange lady, she made me nervous She took me in and gave me breakfast And she said, Do you come from a land down under? Where women glow and men plunder? Can't you hear, can't you hear the thunder? You better run, you better take cover. Buying bread from a man in brussels He was six foot four and full of muscles I said, do you speak-a my language? He just smiled and gave me a vegemite sandwich And he say ......

[KingofPepsi]

It ticks me off that Men At Work must pay a portion of their royalties to those idiots that claimed this song was stolen. Please, the two sound nothing the same. As one person wrote, "there are hundreds of songs that sound more alike than "Land Down Under" and the children's "Kucaberra" (incorrect spelling) song." I wish MAW could fight it.

[Marcodetijuana1]

♫ traveliiiiiing in a finaaaaaaal combyyyyyy.....♫

[isaijonam]

love it 

[fh12power]

wow, good song, nice performers, 2 drums, one with an ex-beatle and one with sheila e! great performance, would love i had seen it live!

[TheReaperTours]

hört sich jetzt doof an, aber der australische Dialekt hört sich ein beischen an, wie der Herbert Grönemeyer...^^

(That was German ...)

[SohlKarr]

@TheReaperTours ja das war deutsch hat man gemerkt ^^ naja wie Herbert Grönemeyer nicht so. And for everyone who dont understand what we talking about he said that the singer sounds like Herbert Grönemeyer, a German singer, because of the singers australian accent

[TheReaperTours]

@SohlKarr

Vergleich mal die CD version dieses Liedes mit der, einer von dem Herbert. Da kann man richtige zusammenhänge erkennen :D

[metal2227]

lol the flute player used to play for slayer, hes rockin

[BLaZe071775]

@metal2227 nice myxolidian modes

[liveeviltrypios]

@BLaZe071775

The song is written in Aeolian mode, not mixolydian

[BLaZe071775]

@liveeviltrypios i stand corrected. thank you :)

[Marcodetijuana1]

uuuuff ke tiempos akeyos con esta roliiiya... =))

[sarvihaara]

Greg Ham was so good in flute, but you can't have everything :D

Great performance!

[Growbar1]

Das Lied is so geil. omg

[haikkod]

better than the original one

[DMEAD123]

i didnt know billy joels band member (mark rivera) was in the all starr band

[Womppamus]

this song is just one of the Best !!! and that female drummer got nice boobies...

[UncleKeee]

Best oz song ever !!!Oz,Oz,OZ???!!!

[crissadorable]

[RandysCandy77]

I have a playlist here on youtube of 173 videos..this video is #2 on the list ;O) the origional video is #1...hahahahaha..80s ruled! ;O)

[fh12power]

i love sexy female drummers mmmm, so cute

[retdet02]

Ringos' abilities aren't great?Shelia E sucks?You must be kidding.Any pro drummer you care to speak to will tell you that they are both world class drummers.Whats' next...oh let me guess..Travis Barker is the greatest who ever lived?Morons.Either one of you has probably never even picked up a stick and know less than nothing about what a good drummer is.Grow up.

[lumifax]

lady drummer is very sexy, but she probably sucks dick better than she drums

[inspectorkemp82]

@lumifax thats sheena e you dumb bastard, one of the finest drummers around!

[MrCarlemon]

ringo´s abilities aren´t very great, he just got famous with beatles, cause that music doesn´t require many abilities

[MrCarlemon]

because ringo´s abilities aren´t very great i think

just got famous as a phenomenon from the beatles

that music doesn´t require much abilities

[brainstorm44]

that lady drummer just sucks.

[DoubleDicestacker]

Wow, that's awesome!

But why two drummers?

[einXtein]

@DoubleDicestacker its not 2 drummers, its one drummer and Ringo, thats completely different.

[DoubleDicestacker]

@einXtein:

OK... But if you've got RIngo, why would you wanna have another drummer?

[einXtein]

@DoubleDicestacker ... can't say thats not a good point... =/

[ComedyCreed]

Very nice

[Pellefaren]

Ah, Colin's voice is superb :)

[nanadasna]

i love it!!

[olympiatr]

he is still the best ;)

[shanejbackx]

[ChaChing86]

[martinpds]

[ODeagh]

yep

[FreakyCoasterFan]

very nice song... and the voice .. perfect 5*

[Hilon21]

al 1:33 to teraz to pojechali na max :D

[Hilon21]

0:49-0:50 zajebiście się zgrali na tej perkusi w tym momencie :D

[MrTWelch]

Colin has given this song world wide recognition its almost Australias anthem.

In turn our hipocritical law fines him.

Hes done more for Australia than Rudd & his pet Ferret Gillard thats who the law should be going after.

From many of us sorry Colin one day you might receive an apology.

[TubularBelle]

@MrTWelch I agree with you entirely except for the disparaging ferret remark. Ferrets Rule.

[voyager7575]

if it is the kookaburra tune, how come it took 27 years for someone to say anything??

[SlimeTron5000]

Because Larrikin Music is stupid. Anyway, they took legal action toward the group in June of 2009. Marion's composition is not in the public domain yet - she died in 1988.

[TubularBelle]

@voyager7575 because it was asked as a question on 'Spicks and Specks' in 2006, "What childrens song is included in the song Down Under?". Larrikin Music had no idea until then.

[voyager7575]

@TubularBelle

Thanks for the info, By the way I'm a Mike 'O' fan too

[andyrob35]

Doesn't sound much like 'kookaburra sits in the old gum tree' to me.

[Username16045]

listen to the flute near the start, it is the kookaburra tune!

[SlimeTron5000]

The second blow sounds more 'obvious'.

[SlimeTron5000]

Listen for the second blow.

[Turbosoaker41]

they ruined it.

I think.

[motazadam]

how'd they ruin it? this one seems more like the original than his other solo version

[voyager7575]

Ringos so layed back, very relaxed style. Hes still a cool dude. Sheila E's really givin' it some. A cool lady.

[MrDoppler13]

@voyager7575 

[Borusse009]

gütt

[eltonator]

:O :O :O

Mark Rivera!!!!!!

[beatles4730]

its amazing that ive never seen any video with ringo playing a 5 pc. but even with a 4pc. w/o/ any real2real he still can make his drummin sound really good (i like my 5pc. even if i am in a tribute band)

[cabronshito]

[terrortee5]

[AntiOnus]

This version is equally good as the original... Maybe even slightly better due to the better setting of the band.

Great song, great version!

[crimsondynamoo]

Ringo's just playing Octopus' Garden while the rest of the band plays this one.

[FBskapunk]

[jtmx39]

LIVE THROUGH VENEZUELA 100 VENEZUELAN %
