Weird seeing Chad Wackermann drumming for Men At Work. And disappointing to see one of the session guys playing the guitar solo in 'Overkill' instead of Colin Hay, it was his best! Always wondered why 'The Longest Night' wasn't on the final forgotten album 'Two Hearts', as it's stronger & has stood the test of time far better than the songs featured on that album, though 'Still Life' is still a beautiful & haunting work. It was tragic the original band couldn't go the distance. Their trajectory was phenomenal, no other Australian act has been as successful then imploded as quickly. First debut album with 2 number 1 singles. My first ever concert as a child was Renee Geyer, as my uncles' band supported her at a local music festival. Vale Greg Ham RIP
When Chad Wackermann made a meal out of Overkill , that was the end of my Men At Work days,, I would have loved seeing Ron play the guitar solo in 'Overkill back in the day , yeah it was odd session guy is playing it

The message of the Longest Night still stings. Hearing him sing these songs today -- so full and rich with new life all these years later.
Yes, Colin Hay's still got the goods.
What if we could be forever young?...
With these songs I think it's not impossible... ❤️❤️👍👍
If you're ever involved in an alien abduction, becoming forever young would be very much worth attempting to negotiate.
RIP Renee Geyer ONE OF aUSTRALIA'S BEST
Overkill is such a great song. It’s dug me out of so many bouts of paranoia/depression
Time again to say hello to Greg... RIP Mr Greg Ham.
Una de las mejores agrupaciones de la década fe lo 80. Excelente 👌. Tremenda música.
Rip Renee Geyer and Grag Ham!😢
I love Maria great song great band
The longest Night is such a fantastic song.
Is there a better, more perfectly composed song from the decade of the 1980's than 'Overkill'?
I say there is not.
It's been so long, I forgot they were only 2/5ths of the original band by then.
Loved! 🌹🌹🌹👏👏👏
The biz

TIL that the older brother of the drummer from Bad Religion played as a hired hand on Men At Work's last tour.
