I certainly know all about Brisbane in Summer... It is a hideous place to live with the oppressive heat and humidity.. But, I still live here - more fool me... This is a great song Robert.
A real rock´n roll from one of my favourite songwriters. i´ve heard just now: i had a ny girlfriend with some very interesting cover songs. I´m a real gobetweens fan and so sad about grant mclennan. Now we have some inferno in germany. It´s snowing in the middle of april. i think we become a little ice-age because of the dissapearing gulfstream. greetings from stuttgart.
For all of you trying to compare this to other bands/songs, I’m surprised no one has mentioned the obvious influence: “Waiting For The Man” by The Velvet Underground.
Mate, great return to form. I was coming back from the coast to our place at The Gap and listening to this song and I thought, I'm going to watch the film clip when I get home. Bloody awesome sir.
Fan (real-rusted-on fan)- tastic! You've upped the BPMs to give urgency to the heat of this cool-climate song. Paradise is certainly lost but you have found a rhythm to at least stay alive to. Was it really almost 50 degrees Celsius in Brisbane this year?
This is just how I imagined Mr Forster would be dressed while mowing the lawn.
I had the exact same thought!!
Not me , i've seen him mowing the lawn and he was dressed like this :

Still wonderful to listen
11 months later, this video holds up well. A delight.
4 years later, same ! Fantastic !
Robert sounds in very good form these days. Look forward to the next album.
Thank you for everything Robert, just read 'Grant and I' and loved it, we're friends that have never met
As a long time fan of the quirky and very witty Robert Foster, plus being a Queenslander...I love this xox

Great Job! Good Music!

John Cale .. its a lift in style tone and delivery
He reminds me of a more talented more same Lou Reed.
Thank you (again) Robert. You make this Brisbane humidity feel almost natural. Nice imagery!
Ah Robert, you've done it again!
best of ever
Absolutely love this !! Great to be seeing him with full band soon
Great song RF! Just read the book as well. Saw the GOB's a few time's at the Tivoli in Sydney around 1987. So many great memories.
Love the classic backyard monstera deliciosa plants

David Chambers too commercial sounding for john cale
Song has taken on some extra poignancy since the wildfires...

Brilliant! And very cool backing vocals too - who sings them?
It's the great Karin Bäumler - Robert's wife.
Up to Fortitude Valley 1-2-5.😎

Does anyone else hear a Roxy Music influence? ua-cam.com/video/BonWfTW7jKc/v-deo.html
better at lawn mowing than me .. and much else
This isn't the Robert Forster who died today.
you definitely don't mow the lawn in a suit

Is this about global warming
Very The Cars.
