I quite like this, and I've been listening to artists from australia for awhile now, they're very talented. But your right, apparently the only way artists from other countries to get big here is if they land a bell commercial, like lisa mitchell, it's rather unfortunate... Canadian* btw
@FairladyS130 I agree with you Fairlady. I promoted Australian-New Zealand films in the US in the early 80's ("The Killing of Angel Street," "Winter of Our Dreams," "Don's Party," "Barry McKenzie" "Sleeping Dogs") & from contacts & dear friends in AU at that time I was introduced to some incredible AU / NZ acts. Shona Laing, MEO 245, Dragon, Colin Hay, Cold Chisel, Mi-Sex, Daryl Braithwaite & Bertie Blackman....some of us here in the USA know what you are doing...& your music IS incredible.
@FairladyS130 That's a drag. But hey, cheer-up, I'm from the USA and I just discovered Bertie! I'm buying this mp3 for sure. Good music can't go unnoticed indefinitely on the internet. She just has to stick it out and maintain the quality and she has a great shot at success everywhere.
@FairladyS130 Thank god for the internet helping people to easily expand their library of artists without being held back by the limits of what record companies and the media want us to like.
Oh my god, what a voice. I disagree that the shift from 'ballad to ballistic' is a bad thing, it totally lifts the song from being average to awesome ;)
Heard this song on Triple J and went straight home to buy it. Started listening to the rest of the album and love love it. Great talent - when is she coming to Gold Coast???
I#m from germany....and the singers from germany...are.....Bad!
I hate them all! your singers are soooo good!
germany is a booring country... :-!

It sounds like someone who is first sedated and then given ECT. Im not sure I like the leap from ballad to ballistic.
