One of the most talented bands that I've had the pleasure of listening to throughout the late 80's, 90s, and into the 2000's. They'll always be in amongst my top shelf albums.
Soooo happy to see the story to accompany this fabulous song follows Australia’s First People. EXCELLENT CHOICE by one of my still favourite bands. You guys will ALWAYS ROCK!
lyrics: I'd just come down from the mountain a happy man Turned on the television, should've chewed off my hand I'm sick of all the false glory: In God we trust Show me one dollar bill that hasn't passed through the cuss And if you break my will I will come back again To destroy everything you stood for Oh yeah, I will go on, like a soldier Through the storms of love And I'll take you back, Take you away from here, my friend They charge you up again I'd just come down from the mountain Where the breezes were blowin' And everything was glowin' like some tree in the bush (Yip-yip-ah-yip-ah-yeehaw) Still I've gotta live my life here With some pretty scary brethren But now I'm forever on a mission, baby To live and die by my smile. And if you break my will I will come back again To destroy everything you stood for Oh yeah, I will go on, like a soldier Through the storms of love And I'll take you back, Take you away from here, my friend We charge you up again [Repeat x3] Yeah, Let's go to Ray's, not to Pizza Hut Let's go to the Pig, not to Starbucks Let's vote for Nader What are we waiting for? I'm gonna live to be a hundred and sixty-four To the crib and back to the studio To write a song so good, make a midget grow From the North pole down to Mexico If you don't know the words, fuck it, let's go I will go on, like a soldier Through the storms of love And I'll take you back, Take you away from here, my friend We charge you up again [Repeat x3]
They are BRILLIANT live. I’ve seen them several times, and go every time they come to Australia! Live and Midnight Oil were THE BEST concerts I’ve ever been to! If you get the chance to see them, DO IT!
Seen them 3 times in Britain, twice @ academy, and also as support to bon jovi in manchester.. Pity they split up, kept waiting for there return, But alas, once again MONEY spoils talent!! And also hard to find video's with a name as LIVE :) thanks for the uploads, another few hours of pleasure posted to the web :D
My favorite Band from the Grunge Era. They still rock, and their Lyrics are always interesting. I am glad they put their differences away and got together, for their Fans to enjoy their Music.
Being BULLIED doesn't mean that anything is WRONG with YOU..the bullies are the one's with the PROBLEMS they are the one's to be pitied..THEY'RE the cowards..STAND up for your right to PEACE & CONTENTMENT.. you are BEAUTIFUL just the way you are!! EVEN if you feel FEAR act BRAVE...VIOLENCE does not solve anything..DON'T let because of them YOU LOSE YOUR FREEDOM! the MIND can win any BATTLE..brain OVER brawn!!
hmm that's a bit ignorant. just cause people may not like live doesn't make them ignorant it simply not some people style of music or what ever. But I reckon they rock

I was there at that concert... Remember them telling us they were filming for the clip.
I was there too. Right down the front. I'm in the clip at the 54-55 second mark.
@@ThePhillrow Same but was a few meters back and have no chance of spotting me or my friend in this :)
I was there. I remember there was a warning for strobe lights there as we entered!
I think they loved Melbourne. Seen them every time they came out.
I just awesome, I love that song!!
❤😊😲
Dang...I love grunge, how have I not heard of y'all...great song and killer video
lyrics:
I'd just come down from the mountain a happy man
Turned on the television, should've chewed off my hand
I'm sick of all the false glory: In God we trust
Show me one dollar bill that hasn't passed through the cuss
And if you break my will
I will come back again
To destroy everything you stood for
Oh yeah,
I will go on, like a soldier
Through the storms of love
And I'll take you back,
Take you away from here, my friend
They charge you up again
I'd just come down from the mountain
Where the breezes were blowin'
And everything was glowin' like some tree in the bush
(Yip-yip-ah-yip-ah-yeehaw)
Still I've gotta live my life here
With some pretty scary brethren
But now I'm forever on a mission, baby
To live and die by my smile.
And if you break my will
I will come back again
To destroy everything you stood for
Oh yeah,
I will go on, like a soldier
Through the storms of love
And I'll take you back,
Take you away from here, my friend
We charge you up again [Repeat x3]
Yeah,
Let's go to Ray's, not to Pizza Hut
Let's go to the Pig, not to Starbucks
Let's vote for Nader
What are we waiting for?
I'm gonna live to be a hundred and sixty-four
To the crib and back to the studio
To write a song so good, make a midget grow
From the North pole down to Mexico
If you don't know the words, fuck it, let's go
I will go on, like a soldier
Through the storms of love
And I'll take you back,
Take you away from here, my friend
We charge you up again [Repeat x3]
They've sold millions here in the U.S. Their last few albums haven't done as well, but their biggest success has been in the U.S. during the 90s
i agree i live in the states they are awesome~!!!!
I'd like to see these guys in concert. I bought their awake record about a yr ago and it was pretty cool. First time I'd heard of this group.

They're back and new album comes out in the fall. First single is out as well.
If only they considered future people googling and youtubing when they came up with the band name ;)
The video reminds me of "The Gods Must Be Crazy" =D
My favorite Band from the Grunge Era. They still rock, and their Lyrics are always interesting. I am glad they put their differences away and got together, for their Fans to enjoy their Music.
I never knew they made a video for this song.
Wow this rocks!!!
the lyrics in this song make me think of my Dad
This gave me chills

If you use caps so much it totally loses the effect you want it to have
Cool...
@PotentialGrows Amen to that. I am always proud of myself no matter what anyone else says.
Nice.
@phantomofthedrivein are you in a band?
hii

1. Anybody else think the midget line will pass today?
2. Ed looks a little Pauly Shore with this look. :)
Can a bridge ruin a whole song? The decision is yours.
The answer is yes.
