I can taste the 80's in this one. The memories flood my soul and the words put me in that perfect time. Colin you are so Awesome Thank you for all the memories. Gday Mate
Have seen Colin perform many times over the years and he is simply one of the best and most underrated singer songwriters there is. And a wonderful guitarist to boot.
Superb. I needed this at this exact moment. Grabbing my guitar... kitty at my side. Coffee sitting on my homade tree stump table stand. Cold outside grey. Warm glow of foreign my woodstove. Alone in Northern NY. Snow covered landscape. I think I'll sit and play. Peace .love. and joy. To my fellow humans.
Colin Hay I love your writing and singing. Your music is timeless. Top 40 hits in the '80s came and went, but some survive. A precious few even stand the test of time to today and FAR beyond. I believe 200 years from now music students will be studying your songs Colin...because they are THAT GOOD!! Godspeed Colin Hay
Mr. Colin Hay...this moment of yours makes thing of fine wine - the older the better....thanks for the privilege of listening to your performances then and now...Obrigado.
I loved and still do, Colin has been my inspiration trough out all the years. When i lost my love it was the same, i still wonder if il get her knock at my door.
Great, just great. Great acoustic work, raw, gritty, real... and that superb voice. What a singer - song writer. Colin Hay is just fantastic! "...we all shine on!" -JWL
The tune came on radio, just now. Looked on YT so I could add it to my autobio playlist. Deeply moved by this performance. Thanks for bringing it all these years, Colin.
And all of a sudden, a quirky song became a sad one. Darn it :'( Damn...I think I like this better than the studio version! Hes just incredible very talented and modest love his voice
well me and my husband was on the way home when one of their songs came on. "Down Under". I tell you this man has a BEAUTIFUL voice. I had their music. I tell you him and STING!. there just know words. they have good music out today. BUT this is great music. thanks for the great music you (men at work) and the police put out!
I heard the studio version of this when watching the Hallmark Mystery series Mystery 101 at the beginning of each episode/installment. I found this one and the one used. I almost forgot what the original sounds like.
Colin, your performance of this song at the "Stop The Drop" concert back in 1983 will never be surpassed. And that is fine. It was tailor made for a 12 String mate. Cheers!
He has a very pleasing husky quality to his voice. That's the luck of having a good physical voice for singing. He also sings with great feeling and that little wobble he does at the end of notes. That's the talent part of it. Having a good voice AND knowing instinctively how to use it.
Sung as a memory, aged to perfection from an innovative era. Legend.
The great old days of MTV. Long live the 70's and 80's.
Beautifully said.
His voice aged like a good wine.
I can taste the 80's in this one. The memories flood my soul and the words put me in that perfect time. Colin you are so Awesome Thank you for all the memories. Gday Mate
Wonderful, Colin.....you belong in The Rock n Roll Hall Of Fame(Shame). You are a brilliant, brilliant artist.
God Bless you.
A fan.
He's got "that voice" ---- you know who it is every time you hear him --- and it never left him after all these years.

This makes me cry. What a song. What a voice. What a sensibility. God bless you Mr. Colin Hay !!
song is based on depression and anxiety which I have and this song taught me lots thanks colin ever grateful xxx
+Mandy Cooper I love this video and your post. At 68, I can say that music like this has saved me many times.
me too Mandy
+Mandy Cooper woow! I didn´know about that! So interesting cause I identified myself with this
song and I am depressive.
It's a great song but what is your option based on?
I thought it was more based on paranoia and anxiety idk about the depression part
one of the most unusual and awesome voices ever.

I've often felt this should be called Cocaine Dealers Lament. Especially at 5 in the morning when someone is knocking at the door. Love this ❤
Beautiful, Thank you so much from France. Men at work was a huge band in our country with that song and overkill plus Down under !
The tune came on radio, just now. Looked on YT so I could add it to my autobio playlist. Deeply moved by this performance. Thanks for bringing it all these years, Colin.
