  • best live concert of all time !

  • I think it was Brian Wilson who said that he could not believe that The Beatles' music did not stop the war in Vietnam. Obviously naive, but I can't help but feel something similar when I hear this song... "Got more rights than people". Pretty much sums it up.

  • Gänsehaut pur! Immer wieder!

  • The most passionate Australian performer that there ever was. Fabulous Peter Garrett.

  • great version ! fantastic band

  • labor tool

  • Awesome!!!!! This is the kind of Music Tony Malony from Holland likes!

  • A totally awesome song! It tells the ancient stories of oppression and injustice. One day, the weak will rise and become strong again and the ancestors will again sing and the buffalo will come home!

  • and that day is now. GO OBAMA!

  • All you morons who think Obama is going to change the world need to grow up. He's a politician! He serves the interests of mostly different powers than Bush, but he serves them none the less - and not on behalf of everyday people.

  • All you morons who supported McCain, wake up and realize your candidate lost because people finally woke up and said, "We're not standing for this anymore."

  • atoosas has posted a comment on your profile:

    You are a moron. I'm blocking you so don't bother replying.

    No need to worry about me sending stuff to your profile , i am man enough to post my comments here for all to read , bloody Americans all talk and no action ,no wonder you got your ass handed to you in Iraq, just look at all your casaulties versus ours. and yes we have mates there as well because your potus can't do things right, the one coming in is no better.

  • only a moron would come up with that . this song has nothing to do with your garbage going on in the unites states. this has to do with here in australia.get your own fight song

  • did you escape out of a mental institution or something?

    And FYI, we have a lot of our own stuff in the U.S. We don't need any of you morons' stuff.

  • I believe the Obama mass following cult like seances have gone to your head.I was replying to your use of this song to reference that is has anything to do with Obama...it is you who are disillusioned mate.

  • I wasn't posting this comment to you, you disillusioned asshole.

    Now leave me the fuck alone. I don't need a stalker.

  • read mother fucker "atoosas has posted a comment on your profile:" you did post it to me you are the stalker .learn how to take responsibility for what you do .. but then again you americans are good at shifting the blame which is why you are so fucked up .....

  • You are a stalker. Not only that, you are a creepy, crazy person.

    Now go back to your ward, you loon. And stop writing to me. I really don't need to be stalked by a deranged mental case.

  • Hey now, we're not all fucked up.

  • A great song!!!

  • I have seen dozens of their live concert videos and the one they did at the Newton has to be the best for vocals and instrumentals I have heard ! all 6 band members were on their game that night !

    thank God for video-tape !

  • GREAT!... join Surfrider!

  • awesome
