I love that he says "God bless you Steve Prestwich" at the end of it. The song is perfect for it and Cold Chisel use the same song to pay tribute to him at their concerts. Kudos, Keith!
I am a fan of Keith Urban, but this song does him no justice. As a typical Aussie he would have been listening to this on the radio when he was growing up and he should know how it SHOULD be sung!! He has his own awesome songs so why not highlight his own talent that way!
I'm in America and I LOVE this song, Keith release that song here please, Cold Chisel must have been an amazing band !!!! :) PS, how do I get this on my ipod anyone ????
NEVER COULD OR WOULD ANYONE DARE SING THIS SONG...WITH SUCH SPUNK...GO KEITH...WITH NICOLE BEHIND YOU ALL THE WAY..I AM A MATE OF JIMMIES....WELL DONE.......DEBBIE..LOVE THAT YOU LEFT THAT S...WORD OUT...
my guess is that you have never been to a KU concert right? Urban is the master guitarist--probably the best in the business today and one of the best of all time.
@dblzn it's about a guy who travels back to his hometown. He meets up with old friends and reminisces about the old days, but everything he sees reminds him of a girl. We presume he was in love with her...the town hasn't changed and old memories haunt him. A beautiful song...arguably one of the best Aussie songs ever written. Check out the original, sung by Cold Chisel.
@janieku63 you have to download the video which you can do thru realplayer, It lets you download videos. Then you need to download an audio extractor to get just the audio find them from google :) hope all works out!
I love this ....Being a Cold Chisel fan for 40Plus years..This sounds good....Maybe it is a bit more Relaxing.....:) maybe we need this in our old age......Ummm Not..:)) still sounds good.......
@dr0pb34r Mate probably i bit harsh. Steve Preswich had just passed away while he was touring, he was simply just paying tribute to a great Aussie band who he grew up covering in bands as all aussie cover bands have to do... Certainly not the greatest version of this song however i reckon his heart was in the right place
Thanks Josh...v. unique the 1/2 pickguard, and such a cosmetic thing for custom....be good if us commoners could say "hey don't drill those top holes, and cut my guard in half!" ... ah well....
I'm not a Keith fan but he sings this song really good. However, he doesn't have the showmanship like Jimmy. jimmy lives and breaths the song. Keith just knew he could sing it better. A big shame to the audience, they didn't fulfill their role to sing in a designated time. Eddie from Pearl Jam has mastered it in Can't find a better Man....
This was so amazing, when he appeared on Today show, He sang 4 songs all wonderful and Blew everyone away with Flame Trees💕🎶🎸🎤🎧🌟🙏💘💘

What a great tribute to music Keith obviously loves. I love the way he rocks it up toward the end.
He probably does this for US audiences.
Fantastic Keith
wow. loveeee it!! one of the real good covers of flame trees!!
This song, with the country overtones of Keith ~ really brings out the heartbreak. Amazing.

@janieku63 Cold Chisel are undoubtedly the greatest band this country has ever produced. a shame they didnt make it big in the states
Props for having the huge nurries to sing this.
Does anyone know what key he is playing it in? I really want to perform it the way he did cos the original is to high for me...HELP!
