You weren’t around when 96fm began and when it grew through the 80’s. It had adult presenters who promoted the music more than themselves. It was so innovative with things like album oriented content, commercial free hours, massive competitions, the Skyshow and so much more. Back then, everybody listened to 96.

great southern land should be lower imo, but otherwise an alright list

.

And Custard absolutely rocks

I came late to this very good overview. Collected many 60s - 80s Aussie bands (lived in Melbourne and Perth early 90s). Question: Is it top as in best musically, top as in most influential, top as in most collectible, or top as in most popular/successful? Big omissions for me are Missing Links, Masters Apprentices, Billy Thorpe (various incarnations), Spectrum (and alter egos, Murtceps), Twilights, Buffalo (heavy as heavy thing) and more recently, Dead Can Dance and Celibate Rifles. For a while you also had those transplanted brothers from Manchester.....the heebie-jeebies!

Until a NATIONAL alternative to the alternative emerges (good luck🤣) nothing will ever change. Tiny community stations can't do it alone.

I would have had Paul Kelly much higher, but it's your video and your opinion and you've done an excellent job.

The Real Thing is a miss

With only one song per artist it’s really a list of the top 30 artists. And Yothu Yindi doesn’t top Crowded House sorry.

WORST LIST on The Planet The REAL THING misses it - GFY

"Crowded House is an Aussie Band"... It's like saying Queen is an American Band.

Crowded House is indeed a Kiwi Band

Crazy good band

Even in the late 2010s I remember hearing Ziggy Alberts on the Js

Fake

Great video. thanks!

Pete Murray's music is so good. I swear Better Days is just an absolute masterpiece of a song.

Honourable mentions for 2000s and 2010s Aussie folk era: Ball Park Music, Busby Marou, Paper Kites, Lisa Mitchell, Gossling and Julia Jacklin

Why no King Gizzard & the Lizard Wizard??

I love Karnivool, i am from their hometown. sorry, to say or even think that they are remotely near 'the second biggest prog band in the world' is laughable. not even close. Somewhere in the top 50, maybe even top 25 would be a realistic thing to say.

No Delta Goodrem? That's brave!

Saw them last Thursday in Hannover was ffrriririigigign awesome whole crowd sang along

Every song Daniel wrote went #1. Diorama is a masterpiece. This is why I dont like bloggers stop while your ahead. Daniel got fans wro appreciate him for his talent.

Listen the the babe rainbow really good aus psyc rock

Missing: Georgie Girl (The Seekers - head & shoulders above many of these), Turn Up Your Radio (Masters Apprentices), Ever Loving Man (The Loved Ones). But mostly I love your choices.

redgum only 19,slim dusty pub with no beer,spectrum someday ill have money, just a coupleto think about .

Nah thumbnail wrong true blue should be national anthem

Yes I disagree,there should be more AC/DC and what about Baby Animals ☹️☹️☹️

Delta Goodrem actually had Hodgkin lymphoma, not breast cancer.

no Savage Garden

Should be renamed "my personal top 30 Australian songs of the last 30 years". Definitely NOT Top 30 Aussie songs of all time.

Triple j is a woke flamer

Wish they would come back to Florida one day. Saw them live with skindred, and I've loved them ever since

Isn’t Australiana a personification of Australia. Like Brittania is too the UK or Columbia too the US?

No Wiggles? Outrageous.

Been my favorite band since 2007. I think that Rick Beato has given the band some well deserved recognition recently.

A pity here are only rock songs, cuz Betty Who ROCKS

I enjoyed this video, It's very well balanced. top marks.

MGF and Do-Re-Mi

Tea and Sympathy is a top tier album. BF shows what an incredible songwriter he is on a brilliant collection of tracks. Probably play this one more than any Powderfinger record.

I love Karnivool, but just like with Cog (the other kings of Aussie "prog rock") The newer tracks released don't truly thrill me. For example, "All It Takes". The whole song is pretty solid but the vocal melody in the verses feel lame as hell which ultimately spoils the song from becoming GREAT to me, and I find myself asking every time I hear it "Really, 10 years in the making, meticulously slaving over song structure etc, and this is what you guys have arrived at as the best option for the verse?" I've had a few years now for it to settle with me but I feel the same way I always did about it. I know it'll be an unpopular opinion but I'm just being honest.

I love Fat Freddie's Drop too, they are not rock but take influence from soul, funk ,hip hop, jazz, dub and more recently trance. To me they are like Sticky Fingers in that they took reggae and mixed it with other influences to make a unique sound of their own. And like Sticky Fingers they probably dont get the coverage they deserve from American critics because they would be considered reggae.

Playing Jimmy and Cold Chisel is cheating :(

Only one Chisel, is not enough. Although you did choose the right one. Only one acca-dakka is not enough. Long way is a classic, so is Thunderstruck, and several others. Only one Midnight Oil. Beds are burning. US Forces. Short Memory. Come on! Eagle Rock, good. Solid Rock. Good. What about The Seekers? Maybe it doesn't work on modern equipment, but back in the '60s, on the equipment then, Judith Durham's voice would grab you by the ears and hold you. Early Robert Plant / Led Zep ~ had a similar electric quality. Something about that voice just touched your soul, grabbed your attention. Same with Jimmi Barnes. You'd think there'd be one Skyhooks song. Not sure which one, but ~ Horror movie? I wasn't a wild fan of the Gibb brothers, but they did sell a hell of a lot of records. Same with Dr Hook. What about INXS? You're going to mention Kyle, you better mention Mr Hutchence. How about the very first Australian rock star? How about the son of the Mayor of Bondi Beach? How about Johnny O'Keefe? "You make me want to SHOUT!" That bloke could pump out some serious energy, let me tell you! The song, the musical style, was so different to anything else going on at that time, at least in Australia. I think it was inspired by Chuck Berry and Johnnie be good.

JJJ Docos would be great, I love the podcasts idea too, The Big Day Out Double J podcast they did was pretty good.

But they do it spectacular

Hi, this is my first video of yours I'm watching, I'm in the intro still. But I can tell you the answer is P(doom)

All the bands i see are 12 bar blue outfits. BORING. the lack of real musicianship is mind boggling. get a day job if you can find one boys, you are dinosaurs. j.

RUclipsr moderators can inhale my dk

Triple j is a full blown homosexual
