Can't get this bl##dy Redgum song out of my head
« on: May 13, 2013, 08:59:19 AM »
The wife and I were talking about a central oz trip yesterday. While looking at the maps and talking about some of the towns on the way Redgum's "The Last Frontier" popped into my head.

The first couple of lines list some of the towns.

Now I can't stop singing it.

Was listening to  "I was only 19" last night.    Unexpectedly, it bought a tear to my eye.   Even after listening to it a couple if hundred times over the past 30 years.

Probably now that I am a bit older, I realise how young 19 is and how this makes it even more tragic.

Redgum is a favourite for travelling or sitting at home!
Awesome!
