Jimmy Barnes is a scottish celt of that you can be sure chek him out John geoffrey kyneur the great great grand son of the famous breton celtic duelist Count Emery here and alive in australia yes we are here alive and well after a number of decades- see ya on the dance floor you arseholes of the big ends of town we are a comming for ya- J G KYNEUR 0448899893
Hey hang on is that the ex drummner out of Auckland who used to be the spot on beat man with Dragon??? I will never forget that hard hittiing Kiwi drum mane--with the LA DE DAS --Who I first saw in 1971 in Lismore amazing tock tock beat never heard it agin and I have seen and heard Fleetwood MACK in NYC with Micky in his red matador booties --at MADISON SQ GARDEN
@johngkyneur - The drummer in this song is John (Yak) Sherrit. He's originally from Fremantle (Perth) W.A. and he played drums for Johnny Diesel & the Injectors. (Mark Lizotte aka Diesel is Barnesy's brother-in-law).
Oh my Gawd how barnsey kicked it in THE RAIN with those appropriate gruntsand sky Scottish highlander burps what a blast He pooped something fiereice into the just spare spot in the seat flow at the MANSELL drug room right next to Renee GEIR in around a late night in 1983 ???? right next to me wow I did not have to make much room because in those days polaces like the MANZELL room were cool not like now that is for sure--
I know its mad alright I am almost 60 and going nutts to billioyou over this track I have it playing on repeat with people here from NEW YORK and they are almost insane--well you see they were to start wiht but you know they are wankers anyhow--yeehaa-- bran4eseees done em in --wow-0I saw barewnsey and the cold chisel formulka --apprentlt it was a god formula --there was no added sugar you see--- in canberra in 1977 wow that was good but this is excellent and now i wonder where my pipe and
it is very rare that someone can cover a song and make it sound good. it is even more rare that the cover sounds better than the actual version. what a great cover. only barnsey could pull something like this off. what a legend. rip mark hunter hope you liked this version of your awsom song but this is a killer version
I know everyone gets old, it's only a shame that Barnes has already seen his better days as a singer. The people that say he's at his best now are easily pleased or never saw him in his prime when there was no singer in the world who could come anywhere near him. Times are changed now, you'd probably get kicked out of one of his shows for being too pissed!! Shame we can't go back and do it all again! What a great version of this song. Thanks for posting.
i like j immy barnes - especially some of the songs i heard by him during the latter part of the 80's. Also eddie money is a phenomenon too. Also early michael bolton (1983-1989) before he started to go too far away from the aor side of music. I recommend the everybodies crazy album by the bolton. It is phenomenal!
I remember watching this on tv, ordered a copy of the video straight away, wish they would re release the show on dvd as they have done with the andrew durant memorial concert.. If you like this you will love the andrew durant concert.. Barnsey, mossy, Don walker, renee geyer, richard clapton, broderick smith, rick formosa.. Absolutely awesome
he sounds awesome singing this!!just as good as the original!!!cant believe the crowd isnt jumping round more coz if i was there i woulda bin goin nuts!!also good 2 hear him singing a NZ song too!go kiwi
Thanx muchly for posting this, I was at this concert at Coogee Bay Hotel, it was awesome, sad though that Marc Hunter passed away not too long after. I'll punch a cone for ya buddy, RIP.
How dare "Yak" almost upstage Sir Jim with his absolutely brilliant drumming?!

I prefer Marc of course, he owns this song!
However, Jimmy doesn't do a half bad job!
I think its a shame when we lose a talented artist like Marc Hunter..... but its also good when someone can sort of step into the 'role' so to speak.
I prefer Jimmy singing his OWN songs, but he does good here.
Good performance
