Jan 15, 2012 - Couldn't agree more, am a cold chisel fan but Mossy should've sung it on his own

Jan 15, 2012 - Dragon is another awesome band out of Aussie, Kiwi originally but reformed now and awesome and guess what you can hear all the lyrics. Check out latest vids with new singer Mark Williams. Went to their concert in January in NZ with Jimmy Barnes and they stole the show.

Jan 20, 2012 - listened to chisel all my life but never been so moved by this song so much. fuck me!! brings tear to the ol eyes i tell ya. when barnesy goes into solo and hits the notes it whiplashes me right back to when times were mush easier. and mossy..well the man needs no introduction. does the mans voice get better with age or what? unbelievable. truly one of the great live acts. i could go on forever. Thanks for the post mate.

Feb 2, 2012 - Mossy's thinking..." shut the fuck up Jimmy " you've just sung the last 100, give me my chance

Feb 8, 2012 - Moss/Barnes harmonies give me goosebumps. I'm so glad I'm old and lived through that music generation and not the pus that is coming out these days.

Feb 11, 2012 - Spent many Saturday nights, in my youth, pissed and singing Cold Chisel classics in unison (or trying to) with a few good mates, then later with our girlfriends watching on, thinking 'bunch of morons'. The fact is that this was male bonding in its raw, ugly state and catching us all unaware. This song was not one of those, but i did like to listen and try to feel what it was about, and here i am, some 25 years later, now i know exactly what it feels like, i wish i never knew. my life now to a T

Feb 20, 2012 - I feel sad that this current generation never get to experience REAL live Aussie music the way we did. They're missing out with their computerized, copy-cat American rap-cr@p - what a shame. This is sheer brilliance :(

Feb 21, 2012 - I'm 14 years old, and at school when everyone is listening to dubstep I'm listening to songs like these, man chisel is good !

Feb 22, 2012 - aussie music at its best
GypsyRainChild Says:
Feb 22, 2012 - I've listened to this song, these guys, more times than I've probably ever been to the bathroom in my life. Living in the USA is tough for an Aussie sheila 'til Barnesy & Co come on .... and I'm home again, for as long as the song lasts ... and I'm totally stoked on a permanent basis that I was in high school when they got started ... what total rippers they are! My heart forever :-)

Jan 15, 2012 - Bro its a comments page its meant to cause debate, get over yourself you have your opinion and I have mine. Love earlier Cold Chisel but Jimmy definitely was not the best on the night.
