love him!! and love this song!! still can't believe people have never heard of him....australia doesn't know what they are missing out on!! oh well i'm all the richer for having my eardrums touched by neil!! :D
Australia needs a radio station that plays Australian music not governed by the record companies' latest releases. The ABC should do much much more too. If Australian artists aren't classical and don't fit Triple JJJ they don't exist.
That's good to hear shaneburgess32. I just wish it was during the daytime, a nationwide station and there was more of the support we should give to an Australian artist.
@shaneburgess32 That's where i first heard it,running late for work didn't care wouldn't get outta the car until this song finished despite being parked outside the boss office window.
@wildwood66 - I agree totally. Those three songs are in my top ten of all time - they are so inspiring and relevant to modern Australia. Plus Neil's Native Born, immense tune (N.B. I'm only 23).
Awesome song this,Neils a very underrated singer song writer,i,m living in Wales now and when homesickness "the wondering kind" and pump up the volume when the "good light in broome" comes on..One of the best aussie songs ever!
I can never work out why this bloke isn't idolised the way Paul Kelly or John Williamson are. He's certainly of their calibre.
Love this song, it reminds me of smiling while you're being kicked in the goolies :p

Neil has been an incredible Australian performer for a long time. More people need to take not only notice of his song,s but what he stands for.

NM is one of the most important songwriters writing and performing in Australia at the moment. He has written three absolute anthems.
1 - White Fella/Black Fella
2 - My Island Home
3 - Calm and Crystal Clear
Could commercial radio please start acknowledging this bloke. He is too good to ignore.
wildwood66 2 years ago
Too country for commercial radio and not country enough, or should I say "american enough" for australian country stations.

You are so right Bellywhack.
Still it is bloody criminal that more people don't know who Neil Murray is.

No worries. I have a few different gigs of Neil's so some more clips might pop up soon.
Accordion player is John Bedggood. Check him out. He does work with Lior, Bernard Fanning, Carus, and many more.
