A Community to talk about Music from the Australian perspective.

Telling stories of Australia through music.

With few exceptions, Australian acts are permitted to have one hit in the US charts, then fall out of the international limelight.

Those acts however often have lots of other cool songs!

There are also several Australian acts that just aren't famous globally.

(A Grand Don't Come for Free).. delivered unforgettable tracks like Dry Your Eyes, Fit But You Know It, and Blinded By The Lights โ€” songs that turned Skinner into a working-class poet for the modern age.

So true, listening to that album all the way theough is so fun. The hints of the cheating, the dismissal of what he see's, cause "I'm mashed!" Lol! What a fantastic album.

It gave me such a great foundation, that has only been reinforced from, family experience, of the differences and similarities of working class Britain to Australia.
