  • Guys guys you're having it all wrong...

    Its all about pollution and enviroment.

    How do we sleep while our beds are burning --> how do we sleep while we are destroying the world.

    The time has come to say fair's fair, to pay the rent --> the meaning behind that is that we should stop wasting the world and give nature back his health or something like that xD

  • The cover reminds of Wyoming in USA, but still combined with the song,it gives a strong anti-imperialistic and anti-assimillating message

  • @CorteneyPadalecki Not western australia thats for sure in fact not even the right county!

  • Hey dude try putting up a picture of western australia.That place is not the western desert i don't know where it is but it's not where i call home EPIC FAIL! This is the flattest country in the world there's no natural structure's like that here only Ayers rock and that defiantly isn't it!!! That looks like a scene from an american western.

  • @CorteneyPadalecki oh no sorry, apparently it's a shame but Veviska put a picture of smth like Monument Valley (USA) instead of Ayers rock... :O

  • @CorteneyPadalecki mmm it must be Ayers Rock, Uluru (one of most famous Australia islands in Northern Territory)

  • Song brought to mind the wildfires in America in 2011 that the Feds withheld firefighters. But, there are those that point the finger at fires in rainforests or land clearing for food. Both are actually wrong but the US can put out fires if given the chance.

  • Anyone know the location of the background pic?? Good song too! :D

  • very good song - one of my favorites from Midnight Oil ...

  • or basically the same happening to any indigenous people, such as the Native Americans to the colonists or the Highlanders the Romans

  • Song was actually written about how the aborigines were losing their land and culture to modern civilization
