  • tenterfield woo!

  • Pls get her out of it...love liv but she should not be singing this...especially as he was long dead when she added her light weight vocals............

  • Peter...miss you every day my friend.

  • Sing to him evertime I have too many reds........bless him xxxxxxxxxxxx

  • @kgbrenda

    me too.. glad there's another

  • Hi All

    Like 'most' Australians I love 'Our 'Livi' but this song really is owned by Peter and no-one can take it or even do it justice.

    If you doubt me take the trip west up the hills on the Bruxner - or North on the New England into QLD. The Library really does have "George Woolnough" wing.

    Spend some time there and you'll get it.

    He left, he went to Hollywood, he realised "There's no place like home"

    Trust me, my name is

    Diamond

  • @diamondjimlegend I'm glad you're wrong here about "no one could do it justice" Oh yes one (woman) can. :-) Because, if you have EVER heard Colleen Hewett's version of this song (just voice + guitar + some strings) you'll be thinking differently henceforth. MAGNIFIQUE as the French would say.

  • @pianoman74 Oh Lordy Lordy, PM74.

    You might well be right that CH does a reputable version of this iconic song, however I've not heard it. If you post a link I'll listen. I was clearly espousing about the talentless hacks I'd heard do it, not the talented/less hacks I haven't heard.

    I almost didn't bother responding to your puerile "I'm glad you're wrong here..." (Like that's really going to get me interested in a discussion) but really, do you know FUCK about music?

  • @diamondjimlegend Oh yes, I think I do, because I usually hit the mark with my comparisons and suggestions. You will be surprised: I *WILL* send a copy your way.

  • wow,that was a little weird.The way they were both swaying & then lifting their arms...

    I like Olivia N.J. & I LOVE Peter Allen but something about the narrators perky introduction made it creepy.

    I thought it was weird that both raised their arms at the same time in the same way, but when i realized in that last shot they took a different part of the song to match the visuals & make it look like he was raising his arm at the same time as her ,like they were reaching out 2 each other -CREEPY!!

  • @godhelpme2009 TOO true

  • Love song, hate the way the narrators always spoil the beginnings.o_O

  • Love this song...a truly great Australian thinking of home and his heritage...simple but from humble beginnings. And with Olivia...Livi you are still special.

  • it is a great aussie song isnt it....a bit of a tear jerker....though i prefer his solo version best.
