The best band ever,you always came out of an oils concert on top of the world,the energy they put into their performances was just unbelieveable!!!OILS OILS OILS

[stamoozwald]

Great song. Great Band. Miss the days of oils concerts

[hoprabbitbunny]

Right on Peter.  What's going on down under in Australia is the same nonsense in the USA. The White House and Capitol Hill had better fear this song!

[ultraciggarette]

giffo destroys bones as a bass player

[burrumheadsdave]

They were so fuckin hot!

[MidnightOilNumbah1]

@Coldacre look he's not lying, he's trying to do better for his country. He's not a sell out.

[EchoTheLink020]

I freakin' love this song! Well, I love all of their songs because I'm a huge Oils fan and always will be to the end. I hope, but it doesn't look like it, they get back together.

[FishingBrisbane]

A beutiful man

[Nigelxman]

It's a pity their energy level is so low here. :-) Fucking brilliant performance!

[crackers95]

They played this at sound check in a little Melbourne pub on there 2000 watt RSL tour back in 1997. No pete just bones and a few of us having a ball singing to it 'Knife's Edge ' is one of the best live songs going around

[DelDuio]

Never saw this one but did catch No time for games back in 2001. I shit myself that they played anything off Bird Noises at all really. That was a real surprise, awesome.

[Coldacre]

oh so the government lies do they Peter. sell out.
