1 00:00:05,400 --> 00:00:07,200 Speaker 1: It's nine to seven. You know, there's nothing I love 2 00:00:07,240 --> 00:00:09,600 Speaker 1: more than hearing a song stripped back, especially a song 3 00:00:09,640 --> 00:00:12,960 Speaker 1: as well known as Men at Work down Under. And 4 00:00:13,000 --> 00:00:15,160 Speaker 1: I though, would give you another live performance with Colin 5 00:00:15,240 --> 00:00:18,040 Speaker 1: Hay who popped in before playing one of these recent 6 00:00:18,079 --> 00:00:20,000 Speaker 1: shows in Sydney to have a chat about that song 7 00:00:20,200 --> 00:00:22,520 Speaker 1: and also to play it live for us as well, 8 00:00:22,560 --> 00:00:24,319 Speaker 1: and to give us a story behind Men It Works 9 00:00:24,320 --> 00:00:25,680 Speaker 1: down Under that we perhaps didn't know. 10 00:00:25,760 --> 00:00:28,560 Speaker 2: There's a lot of darkness there that people didn't really 11 00:00:28,600 --> 00:00:30,720 Speaker 2: pick up on. You know, about the fact that at 12 00:00:30,720 --> 00:00:34,720 Speaker 2: that particular time I viewed this place as being completely 13 00:00:34,800 --> 00:00:37,159 Speaker 2: unique and I still do. And to be Treasured and 14 00:00:37,240 --> 00:00:39,599 Speaker 2: Done Under is ultimately a song about celebration, but not 15 00:00:39,680 --> 00:00:43,920 Speaker 2: celebrating by waving a flag. It's more about let's realize 16 00:00:44,080 --> 00:00:46,920 Speaker 2: what an incredible opportunity we have in this place, because 17 00:00:46,920 --> 00:00:49,920 Speaker 2: I mean, as Paul Kenning would say, not quoting but paraphrasing, 18 00:00:50,040 --> 00:00:51,839 Speaker 2: never in the history of the world have twenty three 19 00:00:51,840 --> 00:00:55,120 Speaker 2: million people been given an entire continent to look after. 20 00:00:55,320 --> 00:00:56,319 Speaker 1: Yeah, of course, and in my. 21 00:00:56,400 --> 00:00:58,680 Speaker 2: View that's not what was happening. There was an awful 22 00:00:58,720 --> 00:01:01,680 Speaker 2: lot of unconsciousness walking around going ah Yeah, let's just 23 00:01:01,760 --> 00:01:03,720 Speaker 2: you know, put up a huge let's just make this 24 00:01:03,760 --> 00:01:06,959 Speaker 2: look like Miami, you know, and plundering of the country 25 00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:11,160 Speaker 2: and desecreation of coastal regions and really really into my view, 26 00:01:11,319 --> 00:01:13,400 Speaker 2: you know, destroying a lot of the environment. The verses 27 00:01:13,440 --> 00:01:16,520 Speaker 2: were just inspired by Barry Humphries and Barry McKenzie character, 28 00:01:16,640 --> 00:01:18,720 Speaker 2: you know. So you know that was a satirical look 29 00:01:18,760 --> 00:01:21,240 Speaker 2: at that, but ultimately people drink beer to it. Well. 30 00:01:21,240 --> 00:01:23,039 Speaker 1: I love it when we get to hear songs as 31 00:01:23,080 --> 00:01:25,840 Speaker 1: classic as down Under stripped Back because you get a 32 00:01:25,880 --> 00:01:28,119 Speaker 1: completely different interpretation.
