Does anyone know the name of the song on the Icehouse album that talks about how a man works all his life and...? Beautiful slow moving song...very emotional...I really want to hear that song again...can you help? thank you ....
Had this album on a cassette tape but it got chewed up years ago. Great track, great album, great band. Thanks for posting... many memories of a long hot summer. Well not that long, and not that hot, but for a few weeks in the summer of 80 something, this was the soundtrack to my life.
@TheDeepBlueWater me too...so emotionally charged. it was the soundtrack for every little move this girl Bethany made. this was the song that played everywhere around me and inside me as i worshipped her.
@JulietsMan Well, barring your language - I did. Use my imagination. That's why I'd very much would like to see what a video would have been like. :) Is this availiable on DVD? Do you know?
peneatrating and beautiful music and lyrics. I wonder if the simple Idea of it's begining could match the grandeur of it's result. It is fuel for the mind to to fly , for imagination and fantasy to collide! Thank you poster , a lost jewel , that hides in vynil in my loft .
love this song. love the whole album (yes i am old) "primative man" always loved icehouse. forgot how good they were til i stumbled back onto the album a while back.
Thank you for being the one to finally upload this song-- I was shocked it didnt exist on YT yet! At least I hadnt found it here until now.... its such an emotive piece.... I love it :)
I have been trying to find this song forever. It was a favorite of mine back in the day. I used to ride around in my 1982 Olds Omega with this playing on the boom box(No tape deck in the car). I thought I was so cool . liking them before "man of Colours". Thanks for posting this so I can relive my youth. Vicariously.
Seriously Thanks mate. Brilliant song that's been hard to find. Standout of "Primitive Man" for mine

Such an incredible beautifull, melancholic song. Their very best song, in my opinion.
