Midnight Oil - Peter Garrett interview (1980)

Music from Australia and New Zealand in the year 1980:

Midnight Oil's Peter Garrett being interviewed by Donnie Sutherland on Sounds in the year 1980.

Note: This footage opens with the original video clip for the hit single 'Back On The Borderline' - a very rare video that has just recently been found and is uploaded on this channel. Sadly, the picture quality is very poor! Lucky, I'm going to be getting a much better quality very soon.

Also, check an account based on Donnie Sutherland's televsion career at 'welovedonnie' on youtube.

@tonks7000 other stations must have been fucked... I can't see what's so unplayable about 'Cold Cold Change'... sounds very standard, to me.

Hi Lee,

I have an account titled 'welovedonnie' which is a channel based on Donnie Sutherland and his shows AFTER DARK and SOUNDS. just type welovedonnie in your search and you'll be able to get access to the channel. Many of these shows are from Donnie's own collection. There'll be plenty more 'SOUNDS' to come.

@petergills5555 - Good point Mr Gills (except for Peter never having been romantically linked with a mediocre tasty cheese, an Aboriginal woman, or man or any cultural background). You're a sharp one aren't you though - having picked up on his generally Left leaning socio/political views.

[AsinineComment]

@meakd - Errr - in case you ever come back here - Peter didn't post this video file, and isn't sitting around reading your, my or anyone else's comments here. Clown!

[meakd]

he's a GOBSHITE

[jg21300]

you are obviously and ignorant redneck pig!!

[meakd]

your a gobshite garret with your lies, your useless

[chocolatisnice1]

I like his dancing. every time he dances it makes me laugh and think 'wow. I am not the only one who dances like that then'

I like their song 'beds are burning' I think it has lots of meaning.

[scottvska]

Is he really 7ft?

[KeVinRuDDz]

Burn in hell like you burn midnight oil Garrett, for deadly evil insulation scam.

You don't deserve a life after you destroyed so many others. Drugo!

Incompetent cock sucker, playing on your minor celebrity to get into government and do a shit job. Take your life if your really honest. You are a wannabe prime minister scum.

Failure = Garrett will never make PM!!!!! Labors a pack of sideshow freaks
