    The Day You Come Lyrics:
    Memories are fading,
    A single voice complaining
    While days are stacking up
    It's hardly worth debating,
    The people are frustrated
    Drink from poison cup
    The system is collapsing,
    Conscience is relapsing
    The damage has been done
    On the day you come rising up
    On the day you come rising up
    Vision is rejected, The people's choice is tested
    So ignorance has won
    Children are infected, Remedy suggested
    Don't drink from tainted cup
    Overpopulation, a media sensation
    The damage has been done
    On the day you come rising up
    On the day you come rising up
    On the day you come rising up
    On the day you come rising up
    On the day you come rising up
    On the day you come rising up
    On the day you come rising up
    On the day you come rising up
    Powderfinger with 'The Day You Come'.
    About Powderfinger.
    One of Australia’s most loved and successful bands ever, Powderfinger’s domination of the music scene spanned two decades and included five #1 albums, countless hit singles, two #1 spots in triple j’s Hottest 100, 18 ARIA Awards, 3 APRA Awards and some of the biggest tours this country has ever seen. They left an indelible mark, with songs like ‘My Happiness’, ‘These Days’ and ‘Sunsets’ becoming part of the fabric of Australia’s cultural landscape.

    I wasn't a big finger fan until 1 morning In 1998 they played this on triple J as the world premier.
    I was walking to work and then Bam!
    Life changing tune!
    I was instantly hooked. The raw guitar and drums at the start get me going every time.
    I wish this was played live more back in the day, but man I loved their concerts none the less!

    for those of you who do not know the meaning of this song and are curious (or for those of you who just like some fun facts):
    This song was written during the Howard Administration in Australia, and during his administration Pauline Hanson got voted in as the Independent leader of Oxley based on her racist and discriminating views, she openly made a speech in parliament stating that it was unfair for white Australians to receive less benefits than Aboriginals and believed that their benefits promoted segregation against white Australians and that any politician that believed otherwise should be thrown out of parliament for promoting segregation. She even went further in the speech to state that she wanted Australia's multiculturalism abolished, fully stating that "I believe we are in danger of being swamped by Asians" and that they "do not assimilate" into Australia, further stating that "if she has the right to decide who comes into her home, then she should have the right to decide who comes into her country" and "a truly multicultural country can never be strong or united". She then even proceeds to be extremely bigoted and racist in the speech.
    This speech was accepted by politicians and vilified by the majority of people, to the point that it even encouraged Bernard Fanning to write this song which he states is his first truly political song as the rest of his danced around issues but never fully were about a political issue until that speech, meaning that this song is about the racism in the government and of the anger of the people that was ignored.

    I like this song but it was written because the Conservative Liberal ( I know, confusing) party had won an election in Australia. Typical lefty, bullshit. Bernard Fanning, the lead singer, has been a virtue signaling, upper middle class, private school and University brat from the beginning. His only saving grace is he didn't enter politics like Peter Garrett from Midnight Oil. Peter Garrett became an MP and the Minister for the Environment and Water, under the Labor Party. He had to take responsibility for the Kevin Rudd government's failed home insulation program, which was linked to four deaths and more than 200 house fires. Rage for the Machine, I guess?

    A brilliant track from a great band. Best out of Australia in my opinion. Love and peace to all - a Dublin fan.

    Fanning seems to be the only one who wants an end to the cycle of excess and substance. A wise man indeed !
    You can only be happy in that lifestyle for so long.

    Once worked at a food and wine event in Pt Douglas. Folk were arseholes, flinging rubbish at us as we tried to pick up their empty glasses and clear tables of their shit. In the 'VIP' area Powderfinger had a table and were the only decent people there, respectfully clearing their table for us and thanking us for what we were doing. This video looks like that event.
    There was a happy ending though. A particularly obnoxious member of staff in the VIP area demanded that we clear away boxes of empty wine bottles that were piled next to boxes of full wine bottles, so we did this. One box of empties to the bin, one box of full to the van. Was a great after-party.

    The way the multi track vocals at the end get stronger and overshadow the main vocals is incredible
