Michael J. "Crocodile" Dundee: Well, you see, Aborigines don't own the land.They belong to it. It's like their mother. See those rocks? Been standing there for 600 million years. Still be there when you and I are gone. So arguing over who owns them is like two fleas arguing over who owns the dog they live on.
oui, très bonne track engagée en faveur des aborigènes australiens. En 15 ans, cette chanson n'a pas pris une ride. Groupe anti promo et très efficace en matière d'écologie. A cesser de snober :)

@dragonz518 Yep dude my wife and I were there as well. Me cos I was in the SAP on duty, and I got the missus in for free. If I remember Sting was there as well. Good old days in Joburg.
leaders of countries are elected to keep things the way they are, not to change...we need to abolish such oppressive system and create a new one! fuck the rulers...i love this song.
@scarface18707 I call it: "Keeping the peace". Entertainment & technology are it's two most valuable administrative assets - keep peoples' minds occupied with rubbish so they're too busy to give a damn. I like this song too - there's something very sincere about it.
Great song and great video. I wonder whether the director of the music video was inspired by the opening sequence from "Once Upon a Time in the West"? Teh movie was on a few nights back and it uses the same windmill sound in the background of its titles scene -video is at bW-jSa9_k3M
Undoubtedly this is one of the most important songs to every be written about Australia. It's message is crystal clear as it was intended by Michael. And to think Daddy wanted his to be a lawyer just like the rest of the family. However he had to heed the call of his heart. Music was in his veins. If you look at the Abo now compared to 30-40 years ago. See how heavy they are now. All that sugar and salt in that government food like the Indian's in America. Diabetes to the max.
I never knew Michael Klim was the lead singer of Midnight oil!
... joking. Man, you can't argue that the Oil is shit when Rolling Stone named "Diesel and Dust" the 13th best Album of the 1980's (out of 100)... you just can't!
I really get a kick out of this shit. Just where are we, as the "white establishment", supposed to go, nimrod? Are we suppose to just jump into the sea? As far as I'm concerned, where you were born is where you belong, and if you or somebody else doesn't like it, tough shit. "Ill-treatment", of course, is another issue, But we've all got a right to live.
I was enough to see these guys twice . Amazing.....This songs takes me back to the Scorpion Club on Ios ...Nina where are you !!!!!!!! Great song by a fantastic band .
Awesome song!!! Is it just me or is the girl in the black shirt with the bad 80's headband dancing sexy as hell? Iv thought that since the vid first came out
This is a really inspirational song for me as a half Australian. I'm just glad that nobody has turned the comment section into a political discussion... yet
who would have though Garretts words would come back to haunt him...as minister in the Rudd Labor government his policy was responsible for 4 deaths and countless homes burning to the ground..
how do you sleep at night... ? Shame on you Garrett...!
Wow.. This brings me back to 1987... I remember seeing them in Auckland right after graduating high school. Too bad that American radio didn't play their other hits. They rock!!
I think that the version of this song by Jessica Boehrs (Novaspace) is much better than this Ozzie crap. And Jessica is absolutely hot! What does anybody else think?
ill grab my forskin lip and flick it like a rod on your neck and twist it so that it makes cum come out and ill say fares fare when i get what i want ill make you cough your dick out so that you dont have one whats burning is your dick up my arse and ill make you lick my arse crack
ill make your fucking cock burning and ill fuck you so hard that you bleed to death ill get my 81 cm forskin lip and rap it around your head and ill fucking through darts at it and ill fuck it again and again
Great song great political and social message ... It's such a shame Peter Garret sold his soul to the Devil and now his message is not his own but merely a part of the system he sung and wrote so strongly against ... It goes to prove, we all have a price ... sad indeed.
recuerdos.. de los locos... un grupo de hippies muy decentes.... Pica , Guineo , Rogelio, el Suco Eguiguren, Sopo Cisneros,(entre otros) los mas queridos...disfrute junto a ellos al rodearnos de buena música.....
amercia, man at work, midnight oil... .. que bestialidad.. tiempos aquellos los extraño mis loco soñadores..
The first time i heard this song I was this close to shut is off after one minute. I thought that it was one of "those" songs and that it would continue like that fore five minutes but then that great refrain comes on and I loved it.
