Two of Australia's best singers in ONE band, and all five members have written hits - that's unheard of!
The 3 f%*wits that gave this a thumbs down should get their hearing checked. One of Chisel's best foot tapping songs around.
One of their best songs, great to see it on YT
Steve Prestwich RIP...solid, reliable...great drummer
maybe the great Keith Moon would salute.......
A human metronome. R.I.P. the the late great Steve ❤️
@Alan Jones Phil Rudd may argue that point
Gee he was awesome, bang on time , no flashy stuff but the tone of him and that kit is unmistakable ❤❤😊 rest easy bloke 👍
The first Chisel Album was a Gem . Wild and Raw ...
Don Walker … genius … “ the beer we bought for Christmas ran dry this afternoon …”
Donald is an absolute treasure of Aussie music. Much of their success came from his brain. Standing on the outside is one of the best examples.
Steve was so amazing!!
How have I just stumbled on this version love the intro
This is one of the best openers of all time.
Their first Album and Breakfast at Sweetheart's even though it was not as popular as their other Album's are my Favourite's the early day's the best baci x
I love this.
Best concert ever.
Obviously you havent seen their concert in Germany
Finished up in bed with an old acquaintance she’ll never be my friend again ......... awesome line❤️
Don walker is a goat tier songwriter imo
I was there it was the best!! 🤘🏻
THERE IS A DIFFERENCE IN SOUND QUALITY WHEN STEVE IS ON THE DRUMS
TheSunnybunny2000 there is a world of difference because Steve was an amazing drummer. No offence to Charlie Drayton.
Love this stuff.
When they're on they're really on.
Highlight ❤
"Bought a second-hand Morris for a cheap $220 and I drove me down to Adelaide."
About time this replaced that fucking gravy dirge as the Australian Christmas song.
Hiked up to Sydney in the week before Christmas
It was thirty-eight degrees in the shade
I bought a second-hand Morris for a cheap two-twenty
And I drove it down to Adelaide
She boiled for an hour twenty miles out of Euston
I thought that it would never end
But I knew I'd be home for Christmas with my Sandy
And a few extra dollars to spend
I'm home and broken hearted
Well I've been pasted to the telephone
When Boxing Day break was wasted sitting here on my own
The beer we bought for Christmas ran dry this afternoon
And on the radio it's New Year's Eve
What a low down time of the year to pack your luggage and leave
Well I drove it to the buyer just as fast as I could go
I was talking to his teenage son
I sure hope it lasted for the poor little bastard
At least until he'd had some fun
I caught a taxi home with great anticipation
Thinkin' all you have to do is try
There was a note propped up against the dressing table mirror
"Dear Jimmy, it's over, goodbye!"
I'm home and broken hearted
Well I've been pasted to the telephone
When Boxing Day break was wasted sitting here on my own
The beer we bought for Christmas ran dry this afternoon
And on the radio it's New Year's Eve
What a low down time of the year to pack your luggage and leave
Yeah
Don't leave me pain
I went to a party, tried to drink myself happy
The steaks were washed away in the rain
Finished up in bed with an old acquaintance
She'll never be my friend again
And everyone was asking me where's the little woman
Rolled home before the rain could stop
And I've been sitting for days reading pre-Christmas papers
With my heels on the table-top
I'm home and broken hearted
Well I've been pasted to the telephone
When Boxing Day break was wasted sitting here on my own
Oh the beer we bought for Christmas ran dry this afternoon
On the radio it's New Year's Eve
What a low down time of the year to pack your luggage and leave
Yeah
Don't leave me baby, wuh
Super
Close to their best, back when smart phones couldn't get u outta the shit
Good ol Adelaide boys
