Thanks for putting this on youtube. This is one clip the Foxtel music channels such as Max don't seem to have in their library when they play the A-Z of Midnight Oil. In my view one of their best 3 songs and one of their best video clips.
Fuck Macdonald's and Coca-cola and Donatoes Pizza, they are all the same company and they are all owned by the United States Republican Party, not to mention they control thee entire Colombian Cocaine market and the entire Afghanistan Opium (Heroin the narcotic) Market.
Wow. You don't get shit like this from the pussies in US rock. Pussies. This is smart, incisive, targeted, pointing - where are these pussy shoe gazers in the US? Screw the US. Hollywood rock. Why can't there be more bands like Oil? Why can't there be more people who think and work like Oil? What a waste. One band in all the universe. PS I think you can get Redneck if you really look. I've had it; lost my copy. Will get it again. Brilliant. Absolutely brilliant.
Gods below, this video is still amazing.

RW isn't one of my tops Oils albums but I really like the title track, Concrete, this, White Skin Black Heart, and Gibbler.
They played a River Runs Red / Concrete medley before that was pretty crazy. Pete's the man!

Great song and great video. I saw this video only two times: on the MTV (Brazil), in 1998, and now here. Thanks to the uploader.

I asked the Simpson's 8 ball if I should go to work tomorrow. It said: "No, not as such."
Star is being an asshole
Jerry is non existent.
Mike is gone.
Ben is incompetent.

Yeah, it is an original video - they all make cameos during the song - in order:
Jim - wearing a football jersey and strumming what appears to be a shovel or rake (!)
Pete - reading newspaper on bench
Rob - spruiking something on a microphone outside a shop
Martin - selling newspapers (Howard Hangs On)
Bones - blind man walking down the street
Best song from an underrated album

The message: Life is short. Don't waste your time.
If Redneck Wonderland is out of print, it's just further proof the the record industry is 100% bullshit.
