- Ringo Starr And His All Starr Band play Men At Work's 80's hit "Down Under" live in concert at the Masonic Auditorium in San Francisco, California on June 11, 2023. Down Under was written by Colin Hay and Ron Strykert and was first released in 1980 as the B-side to Men At Work's "Keypunch Operator" single. A new version later appeared on Men At Work's debut studio album, Business As Usual (1981). The song reached Number 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. Ringo Starr And His All Starr Band consists of Ringo Starr (vocals / drums), Steve Lukather (guitar / bass / vocals), Colin Hay (guitar / vocals), Edgar Winter (keyboards / saxophone / vocals), Warren Ham (saxophone / flute / keyboards), Hamish Stuart (guitar / bass / vocals), and Gregg Bissonette (drums).
==================
Colin Hay official bio:
Born in Scotland, Colin Hay moved with his family as a teenager to Australia, where he first came to international fame with seminal ’80s hitmakers Men At Work. While the band would reach the heights of stardom-they took home a Grammy Award for Best New Artist and sold more than 30 million records worldwide on the strength of #1 singles like “Who Can It Be Now?” and “Down Under”-by 1985, they’d called it quits and gone their separate ways. Hay released his solo debut the following year and, over the course of the next three-and-a-half decades, went on to record twelve more critically acclaimed studio albums that would help establish him as one of his generation’s most hardworking and reliable craftsmen. Rolling Stone praised his “witty, hooky pop” tunes, while NPR’s World Café lauded his “distinctive voice,” and late night hosts from David Letterman and Craig Ferguson to Jimmy Fallon and Jimmy Kimmel have all welcomed him for performances.
Over the course of his remarkable solo career, Hay developed a reputation as a gifted raconteur with serious comedy chops, and his frequent appearances at LA’s Largo club helped garner him a legion of fans in the entertainment world. Among them was actor/director Zach Braff, who called Hay’s mix of heartfelt songwriting and hilarious storytelling “one of the most amazing things I had ever seen.” Braff would go on to feature Hay’s music prominently in the Grammy-winning soundtrack for Garden State and invite him to appear as himself on the hit series Scrubs, which helped introduce his music to a whole new generation of listeners.
On top of his rigorous schedule as a solo artist, Hay has also managed to tour the world several times over with Ringo Starr & His All-Star Band, release an audiobook of Aesop’s Fables, star in the award-winning documentary Waiting For My Real Life, and even provide the voice for Fergus Flamingo in Disney’s The Wild.
“When the pandemic hit, I was forced to stay put for the first time in years,” Hay recalls. “It was horrendous every day to watch the news and see so many people struggling, but even so, musical ideas were creeping into my head, so I followed where they led and embraced the freedom that came with sitting still for a change.”
With no tour dates on the horizon, Hay allowed himself to slow things down and work at a different pace than he was used to. For the first time in his career, he had several uninterrupted months to work continuously with his longtime friend and collaborator Michael Georgiades, and the two began penning a series of gorgeous, thoughtful tracks that would eventually form the framework of Now And The Evermore.
“I’m approaching 70 now,” he explains, “and it’s clear to me that I’m in the home stretch. I don’t feel any fear or a resignation about it, though, just an urgency to say the things I need to say and do the things I need to do.”

The songs are What Goes On (Beatles song), Free Ride (Edgar Winter Group song), Rosanna (Toto song), Down Under (Men At Work song), Yellow Submarine (Beatles song), Octopus's Garden (Beatles song), Africa (Toto song), I Wanna Be Your Man (Beatles song), Who Can It Be Now (Men At Work song), Hold The Line (Toto song), Act Naturally (Beatles song), and With A Little Help From My Friends (Beatles song). Enjoy!
Colin jokes about himself not being famous anymore, to me he is one of the biggests stars. His songwriting and his shows are all top tier amazing.
His voice sounds just like it did 42 years ago. Fun song.
Yes it does! Wonderful song…
Também percebi isso , tem gente que acha que a idade acaba com a potência vocal , isso não é uma verdade absoluta ... Depende do cuidado que cada cantor tem com a voz , geralmente idade não tem nada a ver ... Em alguns casos específicos até influencia na mudança vocal , mas no geral é o cuidado que determina a potência e o timbre vocal . E ele com certeza cuida muito bem da sua voz .
Men at Work Will be in Viña del Mar Festival 2024,
Genial 👌
Nice

Nice song.
25. De febrero te veré en lima Peru

Great Ayrshire talent.
🙏
He is very funny!
Such a shock to see them playing...I hate to say it..but they re like grand parents playing..voice I still there though...but nothing to compare with the stones for exemple ...where we can still Jaegger like a young one....
Chile awaits for your show at Viña del Mar Song Festival this summer.The tickets are practically sold out...!!! Don't forget to bring the best good looking sheila in your choir.That way, she'll steal the show and we will all be with a slack jaw watching her while we try a yummy Vegemite sandwich...
Just like everyone else time has taken its toll and it’s simply not the same, still nice to hear 👍🏼
Bruv are you going deaf he sounds exactly the same
@@worlds1ep3enthusiast92 no he does not none of these old acts do Elton John Billy Joel, sting,rod steward, time has taken it’s toll, have you listen to Bon Jovi lately, people go to see them to reminisce not exactly for the music, just saw Kenny logging and he too lost a step or two is not just the anymore and anyone that don’t see that don’t want to face reality watch Darryl’s house with all his guests and tell me they sound the same, don’t get me wrong it’s nice to see them still around but watching Phil collins strugling on stage was really sad🤷♂️
@@orlandosoto6080 Apart from a natural aging on Hay, your comparison is just ridiculous. Sting, Billy Joel, Rod Stewart and Elton John all had to take quite some cuts to their voices, especially Elton John, but Hay sings the songs he played 40 years ago in the same key, with the same energy and the same level of quality. Pulling in Phil Collins on this is totally out of place, that man is very sick! You can't blame Collins for not performing like he did just a few years back in the 2000s if destiny is showing him the middle finger like it does, he still gives his all for the fans. Colin Hay on the other hand is performing healthy and strong just like he did in the 80s, and yes.. you notice 40 years, but it's not a huge change on his tone, energy and performance. Few musicians can claim to have maintenanced their flair as much as Hay has done it.
No lo creo. A su edad muchos ya no cantan. El está perfecto aún en los tonos originales
He sounds pretty close to the same u dildo
That venue desperately needs a sound engineer. Great song though.
It's coming from the audio interface it's coming off the room mic from a phone camera.
you could weave a blanket from Colin's eyebrows....
Keep playing the original flute riff.
me da miedo que los pifien jajsjajsd
