    Sometimes - Lyrics
    I know that the sunset empire shudders and shakes
    I know there's a floodgate and a raging river
    I say the silence of the ribbons of iron and steel
    I say hear the punch drunk huddle drive hammer and steel
    Sometimes you're beaten to the call
    Sometimes you're taken to the wall
    But you don't give in
    I know that the cannibals wear smart suits and ties
    I know they arm wrestle on the altar
    I say don't leave your heart in a hard place
    Sometimes you're shaken to the core
    Sometimes the face is gonna fall
    But you don't give in
    #MidnightOil #Sometimes #ScreamInBlue

    They should be treated as national treasure in Australia.Brave, uncompromising , straightfowarded , direct, my childhoodand lifelong heroes. For what they sing you need to be passionate and brave. First hear them when I was 14 now I am 54 and they ROCK!

    This is one of my favorite videos of all time. I remember when it came out in 91 or 92. It was not played a whole lot on MTV so it was such a treat whenever I managed to catch it. Greatest lead singer ever if one considers voice, charisma, and ability to get along with band members.

    One of the best Aussie albums I came across growing up was "Diesel and Dust"...it was a way to get into discovering the band. Was already a big Icehouse and INXS fan and it was logical to get discovering Midnight Oil...it was exciting growing up and discovering these bands from down under...

    It really is a shame that one of the major sports TV networks in Canada is not carrying the live coverage of The Tour de France. Very disappointed. To have exclusive streaming with a paid web service is depriving likely millions of cycling fans (an potential cycling fans) of access to one the worlds greatest cycle race, Le Tour. If some want to pay and watch it on an app, that's fine; however, this exclusivity selfish (and maybe greedy) on the part of those involved producing and distributing the feeds and most certainly profit driven. So glad that there is at least a race this year, but I'm disappointed it's not as accessible to fans.
