  • Oh i love this thanks

  • Well done Aussie! First got smacked with this listening in the shower down the coast at bawley point NSW about 15 years ago and loved it. Within 6 months I was at Russell's concert in Canberra with my girlfriend and her family. We're now married two beautiful kids and still loving Russell Morris. Good work!

  • WTF- I'm watching a fucking turntable! This is you tube at it's worst!

  • @ozmati Try this.

    Shut your eyes and listen.

    It worked well for me back in the dark ages.

  • hey Russ, you're singing this to me yes? You're the best, I'm so loving you right now

  • Great song - a pop symphony. A uke arrangement is now up at scorpexdotnet/Uke

  • the best of Russell, love you

  • This is just stunning . . . . his voice is magnificent

  • Amazing song. Deserves international praise. Terrific melodies, great voice.

  • WHAT A BELTA!!! AWESOME SONG

  • Comment removed

  • i am sure Russell wrote this song for me when he was waiting for me to be old enough to marry me hehei was 11 when he sang it first

  • Awsome song and nice touch with the turntable...great work.

  • I still love you Russell.  Your music was so much part of my teenage life. This is a freaking classic!

  • wow that song brought back memories, great stuff, thanks aussie

  • fucking sweet

  • in the early 80's my brother featured in a video. It was the Ben Nevis hangliding championships. Russel Morris' song "Wings of an Eagle" featured as the theme song. To this day I still hum and sing it. Wonderfull talanted man love his music.

  • Thanks for posting this song...Everyone go and see him on tour. He's still around and still sounds great. Touring at the moment with Brian Cadd, Usually small venues but still a great sound>dont miss out....

  • God, I'd forgotten this existed!! What a great surprise to find this here!

  • Thanks for sharing flybreath - What a Belter of a voice. Almost had a Gospel feel to it. Great Post.

  • So COOL. NZ & AUSSIE MUSIC IS GREAT

  • This song after all these years still sends shivers down my spine. Maybe cuz when it came out I was starting high school... Russell has such a terrific voice... Rock On :)

  • great voice brings the memorises flowing back

  • Oh thankyou! What a voice and he sounds just the same live, enjoyed my trip down memory lane x.

  • Thank you for posting this song, what a talent and still love listening to his music compliments of youtube. Awesome

  • Heard "Rachel" on Classic Hits in NZ today,found this on You Tube......Fantastic voice/Song/Talent!!!!! Pity he's not a Kiwi!!

  • Thanks for posting. Ah those were the days. What a talent. Radio New Zealand plays his songs.

  • Thanks for posting, it's one of my favourite songs by Russell Morris.

    Had the pleasure of meeting him at my local RSL Club several months ago. He's a fabulous performer and a great bloke!

  • I also meant to say that John Farnham did a lot of hard yards before he was justly rewarded for that sheer hard work and talent.

  • eldonor888 whilst I agree with you about Russell's undoubted talent, it makes no sense to denigrate John Farnham, an under rated singer on the world stage, but he certainly has the runs on the board in Australia

  • thanks for sharing. If anyone has the original clip of Russell performing this please post it.

  • It used to be on youtube, and it was an excellent clip - it probably got taken down for copyright reasons. I was very sad about that, I had it saved to my favorites, I really enjoyed watching it.

  • wow. the memories. good old days alright!

  • Thanks for all the awesome oldies u have taken the time to put up here. They rock

  • The most under rated Australian singer of all time. Pisses all over Johnny Farnham

  • Awesome call about being under rated. This bloke rocked and rolled with class and talent to leave most aussies for dead

  • Hard to find anybody who can really sing anymore let alone write their own music.

  • One of the best songs ever? I think so!!!

  • A wonderful, expressive voice.

  • I only vaguely remember this song when it was released (I was ~4) but it is such a good song. And how good are the backing harmonies??

    Thanks for posting - Jimbo

  • Thank you ~ Aussie

  • My pleasure bcylee2002

  • Classic!

  • Awesome!

  • Excellent!

  • Just superb!
