This is from a Countdown episode that is on Rage tonight, one I don't have which is good. I do have an old copy of this video though as someone put it on UA-cam when the ABC rented the Countdown rights to pay-tv channel VH1 in the early 2000's. This is a lot, lot, lot better in quality. Not remastering in 4K seems strange :) As you can see, the episode cuts out a few seconds of the start and end, so I just screen shotted Chrissie and morphed her in, easy done. I think this is a great song and it's sad that it only went to #50 in Australia and didn't chart anywhere else. Compare it to the garbage of today, as everyone is pissing their pants about Taylor Swift concerts. It's like we went from just having enormous talent everywhere, to having about 6 overhyped stars in the world. Taylor Swift and Ed Sheeran seem to account for 50% of the output. *shudder* So we are back to 1920 x 1080 videos, if you didn't read my post from earlier in the week explaining why, it is here www.youtube.com/@Austech/community Hopefully I get treated a bit better, UA-cam have really done a job on my 4K videos that are now hardly being viewed.

Far out Coral Trout. I had the privilege of seeing the Divinyls play live in the early '80s. Their set seemed endless, played like Chrissie's entire back catalogue. Thank you much appreciated.
After watching this a few more times, I really don't know how this (#50 in Australia, didn't chart anywhere else) and "Back To The Wall" (#33 in Australia, didn't chart anywhere else) didn't chart higher. Both were written by Amphlett/McEntee and capture the pure unmessed with Divinyls sound which changed later on when they started singing songs written by others. I can only put it down to that we were simply too spoilt for choice in the 80's, there was something for everyone back then and so much good music that at times songs were overlooked. They were from the albums "What A Life" (1985) and "Temperamental" (1988) which charted at #4 and #11 respectively, so although the singles didn't chart well they were well known to everyone who bought or listened to the album.
It's a good one, until recently the only copy of it was from a recording someone did when VH1 had the rights to Countdown clips for a short period of time in the early/mid 2000's on Foxtel. A few months back Rage played the Countdown episode that it's on. I remastered it and improved the video quality and swapped the audio out for a new track. I don't know how it only got to #50 in Australia, it's way better than that.
I got to bed at 7 o'clock at night mate :) I would be cutting them out of tonight's Countdown episodes tomorrow and posting them anyway, so I figured I would just grab the "pre-release" ones on Friday night. You know, you think the ABC would have them all nice. No. They all had to be deinterlaced, lines galore. They just don't seem to care. At least they have stopped putting "Live on Countdown" on the description, I suppose "On Countdown" is better than "Mimed On Countdown". Though what is wrong with just the word "Countdown" ?
The divinyls Chrissie amphlett what a beautiful and very sexy woman had balls to put men in there place and suffered but always had time for her fans the divinyls not the same without you thanks for all the great shows Chrissie ❤️
Love this song. I think it's very romantic with the theme and the keyboard. I've looked at the lyrics, but I can't find the backup lyrics. Would anyone know the backup lyrics?

Ed Sheeran and Taylor Swift both suck. Just shows where we are at as humans to be honest. Not good...
@@AdamSandaver I agree. I have no idea how music has gone from something for everyone in the 80's to nothing for most these days.
Awesome! Thanks so much for this.
No worries!
Another great Aussie band from the 80s. I enjoyed my teenage years then.
I would trade the rest of my life to go back there for 5 years.
Pure gold
Love this song. The live version is even better.

Ha, I just checked to see if you were from Queensland. It's far out brussel sprout in Victoria :)

brilliant, lovely to see new footage of Chrissie, thanks
This is easily my favourite Divynals song.
R.I.P. Sleeping Beauty, Chrissy Amphlett.
A dirt road country boy from Colorado will never forget you. ❤🙏🏻👊🏼💪🏼🎤🎙
Thank you so much for posting this. My favorite song with footage I've never seen. You deserve a sub for that. Thanks again!

Christine Joy Amphlett, you and your voice will be welcomed in heaven.
🙏🏻 ❤🙏🏻
There is something about Chrissy Amphlett that I just can't put my finger on. 😍
this is good
Looks like somebody watched Rage this morning😁

Awesome!!! Thanks for doing this. Do you think you can get this same quality out of the original music video?
I have previously remastered it, do a search on my channel.
