I Served in the Australian Army from 81 to 89 and i can tell you it was the greatest time to be and Aussie if i had a time machine i would go back then and stay there for ever.
@@Jean_1999 It was the music and art of the times that made it that way these days if you want to have an amazing time you have to seek out the art you like the corporations have taken over what you see and hear to control you mood and make you easy to exploit but they are out there wonderful humans creating beautiful music and other things but these days you have to find them your self.
i was 14 years old when this song came out so 49 now,,,,, listening to this song fills me with so much nostalgia and it makes me ache so hard for those days filled with amazing music like this.
One of the most beautiful songs ever written, also knowing the story behind the song makes it so special. Genius slide guitar solos. Genius lyrics. Genius music.
As a Canadian living in Australia for a few years - mid 80's, I fell in love with Barnes and Cold Chisel. When I thumbed through the 'bargain bin' back in Canada, I found "Freight Train Heart" and purchased it. When I listened to it ... I was blown away!
This song should be included in the National Australian Anthem of the truckies. Excellent song! This song reminds me of my dad who died 14 years ago. He liked this song. Not giving up or giving in. Chasing your dreams.
Fkn a it is the best having gone thru 2 major health problems ms 30 yrs ago hi grade bladder cancer 2% chance of getting thru and I was in the 2 never give up
This has always been my favourite driving song and most likely always will be. A massive thank you to all the truckies out there keeping this great country moving - without trucks, Australia stops!! 🚚 🇦🇺 🇦🇺
After a motocycle accident,I was in a deep,deep coma for over three months.Doctors said I was Brain dead,yes there is live on the other side.I have being there and back,making a wonderful recovery.Even if it took me twenty years.Thanks for this wonderful music,giving me strength when I needed it most.
The respect motorists show towards motorcyclists is absurd I'm glad Ur here to tell your story to the minority that will respect or respond to this post I take my hat off to you my friend....
If there's another side as you say, then what was it? Can you describe it or recall it? Just saying 'there's life on the other side' doesn't make it so. For all we know from your story is that you were braindead after an accident and then woke back up.
I was old enough to start driving truck in 2005 and...well...by now, all the magic just seems to be gone. No more "freedom of the highway", just more paperwork. This kind of old song, though, rekindles a tiny spark of joy again, so I keep coming back to it every few months. 🙂
This song I feel like was made not only for the truck drivers but for the trucks themselves My great uncle was a truckie and operated out of Margaret river out here in WA. But he had to stop trucking 2 years prior to this song releasing due to a terminal illness... but despite his trucking days behind him and himself long gone I am proud to say that his first truck - a 1979 Kenworth K100 flatbed - which was his favourite lives on and will do so until all things come to an end This song I feel like is especially for people like him and the trucks the beasts that roar down the roads that truly are part of the 3 major things that keep Australia going - Trucks, ships and trains- Australia wouldn’t be the same or as lively without them
Your a hundred and ten percent right my brutha, Australia needs this industry. We are nothing without it and we would be just an island I reckon… I feel bad for all the blokes rhat try their hardest and never receive nothing
Are you kidding me. I was 17yo when I first heard this song. I'm about to turn 52yo & I never knew this. My first boyfriend absolutely loved it & so do I. God bless x
🚚Driving Wheels 🚛 . Thanks Jimmy Barnes ❤. For dedicating this song❤ . For your sweet precious dad❤ . Every Man and Woman ❤. Who drives 18-wheelers every day of the week ❤. I Want To Thank You . For all your dedication ❤. Seeing that the load you are carrying ❤. Get delivered to their destination ❤. Drive safe and take care of your selves 💓.
Barnes is still alive. In fact, he is forming a group with the ex-drummer of the Stray Cats and they are playing rock-a-billy. (No real surprise there). Born in Scotland and moved to Australia when he was five years old. If you want to hear him at his best watch the video called Lazy. Incredible performance by him AND one of Bonnamassa's best rock songs.
Dave Lindley Gone NO !! handsdown the best pedal slide guitarist. His intro and slide throughout is everything on this song. So sad he's gone RIP Dave Lindley
Jimmy made us Aussie lads feel like we could dance like him. Stand with hands by your sides and head bang roughly to the beat. I can do that i thought. Even when drunk as a skunk. Andre
Every time I get into my old 1969 Ford Falcon Ute and cruise down the M1 I will play this song.. She's got 600,000ks and a third engine rebuild but.. Amen (if your religious).
What a start. The instrumental at the begining makes me think of a big rig reving up from the depot, or in the city. then the drum and rhythm kicks in as he hits the broken lines on the highway
I had a very sheltered childhood, but when i bought my first cassette it was Soul Deep and that poor cassette was played 1000's times over. I love Jimmy Barnes to bits😙💜
@@carolinecochrane196 wow great 👍! You seem to be an amazing fan and my song has been a source of motivation, inspiration and strength to you. Ooh yes, I'd love us to continue this conversation privately to know more about you, and your thoughts on songs. I'll be giving you my private mailing address so you can send me a mail okay?
American. Friends with a Russian trucker. First time hearing this. I grew up in the age of "Convoy" and "Phantom 309" and "Eastbound and Down." This song follows the tradition with the hard drive, high energy of the 1980s. Already I love it as much as I do "Working Class Man" that I heard in the '86 movie "Gung Ho."
First song I've heard from Jimmy over here in Sweden. Boy, this record were spinning :-) Found his catalogue, AND, after that, his history with other musicians...Ian Moss for instance. Great musicians.

Well he's following the broken lines Living on borrowed time Motel rooms and broken hearts all left behind You swear he couldn't close his eyes As he shifts into overdrive He's been up and down this road so many times The man of his own And searching just keeps him proving That only the road Can tame the rebel in his soul It's the rhythm of the highway As he rolls on down And city lights as they fade from sight Drives the man behind the driving wheels Like a cowboy in a rodeo Riding hard but never letting go You'll be wand'ring through the twilight of his life Waylon Jennings on the radio Country music and engines roar Like a shooting star across a desert sky And he's got a home But it's out on the blue horizon Heaven only knows There's still a rebel in his soul It's the rhythm of the highway As he rolls on down And city lights as they fade from sight Drives the man behind the driving wheels And chasing southern lights In the distant sky And open plains with the mountains high Drives the man behind the driving wheels Well he's thought about settling down A little diner on the edge of town But in this world of push and shove He's still got freedom in his blood It's the rhythm of the highway

Still am,azed at this mans quality, and to think he thought for so long in his life he was no good not worth it, a lesser person thank god he came through, because he is such a good person , he didn't see it in himself, only others, well you are Jim a good human , read your books, what an experience your life has been.

Great album. Have that on vinyl after picking up from the in laws.
Goodonya mate. Yew bewdy.
Takes me back to the 80's . Best decade EVER. Cheers Jimmy
Better than now in so many ways!
Definitely the best decade, EVER, sadly, things are unlikely to EVER be that good again !

Dedicate this to my old man,
Colin King who was an interstate Truckie for 27 years, (to support wife & 5 Boys), before he passed.
I can relate. My Dad was a truckie too for over 40 years. He passed not long ago. Even his funeral was truck themed just like he wanted.

Legendary song. My Dad bought me Barnesy's Anthology for my 10th birthday and I've been a lifelong Chisel/Barnes fan ever since. Keep on rocking!
Truckies are the back bone of Australia ..Not Trains.....Legends .....Hero's. ..👍
Hello how are you doing it’s nice meeting you here.
I like to think that Barnesy is still out there, every night, screaming at truckies passing through outback towns.
Probably because they wake him up with their Jake Brakes haha
LOOK UP BARNES AND JOE BANAMASSA DOING "LAZY" BY DEEP PURPLE
Hes in a much better place...and he never screamed at truckies......

This song will never get old love it just wants to make u get behind the wheel and just cruise no destination👍
Every time I get into my old 1969 Ford Falcon Ute and cruise down the M1 I will play this song.. She's got 600,000ks and a third engine rebuild but.. Amen (if your religious).

This song is not a movie, it's a whole life story!
When i listen to jimmy everyone else does too. One of my faves.
Go the truckies
What a start. The instrumental at the begining makes me think of a big rig reving up from the depot, or in the city. then the drum and rhythm kicks in as he hits the broken lines on the highway
For about two years, I was living the lyrics to this song as a long haul truck driver. It makes me miss that life

Our prime minister has been doing enough of that, but not much else. Lot of good that's done us...
Well he's following the broken lines
Living on borrowed time
Motel rooms and broken hearts all left behind
You swear he couldn't close his eyes
As he shifts into overdrive
He's been up and down this road so many times
The man of his own
And searching just keeps him proving
That only the road
Can tame the rebel in his soul
It's the rhythm of the highway
As he rolls on down
And city lights as they fade from sight
Drives the man behind the driving wheels
Like a cowboy in a rodeo
Riding hard but never letting go
You'll be wand'ring through the twilight of his life
Waylon Jennings on the radio
Country music and engines roar
Like a shooting star across a desert sky
And he's got a home
But it's out on the blue horizon
Heaven only knows
There's still a rebel in his soul
It's the rhythm of the highway
As he rolls on down
And city lights as they fade from sight
Drives the man behind the driving wheels
And chasing southern lights
In the distant sky
And open plains with the mountains high
Drives the man behind the driving wheels
Well he's thought about settling down
A little diner on the edge of town
But in this world of push and shove
He's still got freedom in his blood
It's the rhythm of the highway
