This song for me personally helped me through ptsd after being in a very abusive relationship. Cold chisel as a whole is amazing but individual talented too. The beauty of this song is it can mean something different to someone going through things and make them feel not alone
You know what I love? Cold Chisel went to America and was told Americans wouldn’t ‘get them’. Particularly Jimmy and his ‘screaming.’ (You’ve got nothing I want was written in response. 2022? Proves those music executives wrong! Time and time again I see Americans saying ‘why am I just hearing about them now?’ Because the suits said NO! That’s why 😜 I’ve also noticed African Americans having a huge connection with him, which is interesting, because he named his daughter after a gospel African American singer he watched because he resonated with the feeling of the movie. Keep in mind he is Scottish originally and still in 2022 they don’t control their own land, so that soul is worldwide pending on the life your exposed to! 🤘🏻🤘🏻
yes Fiona It's that soul and that soul when you feel it..... It can make you cry smile have empathy so many emotions. Those emotions are just felling and energy and has no color or where we are from. that's the beauty with great music and look at us talking about music. Fiona few moths ago i didn't know you even existed and you didn't know i existed but here were are world apart but look at what music did, it got us talking and that's amazing because of a band.
My son came to a outdoor gig of jimmy’s with us when he was 15, he met his current wife there and that was 11 years ago and she was there with her parents🤣🤣👏👏🥰
When Jimmy comes into sing it’s like a bolt of lighting which penetrates every cell of your body. Ian Moss started singing, he and Barnsey are the lead singers of Cold Chisel they are both great and compliment each other. You gotta check out “bow river” from this same concert and you will be blown away
Tell me any other band you know that has two INCREDIBLE lead vocalists and where EVERY member of the band can and has written songs. Jimmy is the usual lead vocalist for Cold Chisel but many of their songs were sung by both him and Ian Moss or even a few by Mossy alone. This song was written by the late Steve Prestwich (drummer).. RIP.
I heard a few songs and i still don't understand why they are not global. People said why but still. To much Talent for Jimmy to be stopped in my opinion to be global.
Written by the drummer, Steve Prestwich (R.I.P.) This is just heartbreaking this song.. about the loss of innocence.. The album version is awesome also..
Ian Moss is equally as good as Jimmy. Different style and tone But their voices harmonise so well together. Ian is also considered a lead singer in the band and went on to a solid solo career as well after the band broke up. Some of the best musicians and songwriters ever were in this group.. Check out Bow River...written and sung by Ian
Cold Chisel is a very loved Aussie band. Ian Moss is the guy on the guitar, he's the other singer in Chisel. I grew up listening to Chisel and I cherish them to this day. My kids love them too, my husband and I play them all the time. Australia has so many amazing talented singers that sadly don't get heard by the rest of the world. You should also check out Ice House, Australian Crawl, Men at Work, 1927, Dragon.....the list goes on. Love your appreciation for our home grown artists', keep the videos coming.
Greatest love song ever. I don't think it's about an actual war. It's about a couple who's going through something and on the other side they'll still be together. Ian Moss and Barnsey. Chisel. The GOAT.
Australia's greatest & the world's most unrecognised soul/blues/rock band. Arguably the best ever, anywhere. Mossy is like Al Green (vocals) & Eric Clapton (guitar) in one + Jimmy a powerhouse - the whole band = brilliant & been gifted Australian audiences for 50 years. Great to see them being more globally acknowledged, shared & celebrated ....at last 🙏🎸🎤💜🎶🌏🌠🎉
Ok.....the John Mayer looking dude is the original founder of Cold Chisel his name is Ian Moss. He started Cold Chisel back in 1973 in Adelaide (originally named the band Orange) and was looking for a lead singer and thats where Jimmy Barnes comes into it. Jimmy's album Working Class Man was produced by Jonathan Cain who is the Keyboardist for the famous American band Journey and he actually wrote one of Jimmy's biggest hits "Working Class Man"
Why you noticed such a varied age group of people in the audience is because Cold Chisel has been around since the 70's, and most of the older people are fans from that era. Then, you've got their children that would've grown up listening to Cold Chisel via their parents, and became fans also. But, Cold Chisel are a kick arse band anyway, so they appeal to all ages, really.
@@CVTECK1 yes. And Cold Chisel are that type of band that alot of their songs are embedded into our psyche, and somebody always has a story or feeling that is triggered by one of their iconic songs. And with Jimmy Barnes...he has gone onto becoming a best seller author of 3 books....2 of which were biografies about his extremely violent, abusive childhood, and the 2nd about his addictions into adulthood as a result. He has also co wrote a childrens book and audio book. So...as well as continuing to still pump out awesome music...he is an incredibly, honest, grit and bones, hide nothing, author. He is a Scotsman, after all, from Glasgow, so...very sincere and pulls no punches....just as us Aussies are...! Glad you've stumbled upon the Cold Chisel train and the Legend that is Jimmy Barnes. And also The Voice....John Farnham. Your welcome.....
The opening vocalist is Ian Moss, a legend of Australian music. Steve Prestwidge playing the shaker box passed away several years ago... he is on stage frozen in time.
Ian Moss is the first singer I think he wrote the song . And he and Jimmy share the lead and Ian is lead guitarist Ian and the pianist started the band .
The “war” referred to in this song is actually the animosity at the end of a relationship, and the calm regrets that come afterwards. And that guy is Ian Moss, lead guitarist and co-lead on some of the best songs. Check out Flame Trees.
Another cold chisel song about war is “khe Sanh” about a Vietnam vet. I was at this gig they are amazing live. Bow river with the way they slayed the musical instruments was my favourite performance that night
Cold Chisel did go to America in the late 70's? I think and came up against the American music industry who tried to get the band to play to a 'formula'. Cold Chisel would not compromise their ethics & their conviction that they knew what was right for them. What resulted is the very gritty song You got nothing I want. About When the War is over, well isn't Ian Moss awesome in this song. I just love his voice, it's so distinctive & blends so well with Jimmy's. Bow River from this concert is also fantastic. Great reaction mate.
If i only head on ear and listen to those boys sing i will do everything in my power to sign them. i wouldn't even attempt to change anything about them. it blows my mind.
It's a beautiful love song🌹" you and I we said each other's story", " just a page of lust in all its glory"; " how can I go home and not get blown away" it's about going through a divorce. I went to see Ian Moss in concert on Saturday night😃 he is outstanding in his artistry. Ian Moss along with Jimmy are both lead singers in cold chisel. Legends😃🇦🇺🌷🌏🪐🌕🙏🐝🦋🌸💕🇦🇺🍀🦉🏡🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹 Ian Moss has been a legend here in Australia since before John Mayer . Cold Chisel are an amazing band. I love the fact that their music is often about their home and our country🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺❤❤❤
CV ,your second music reaction. Your on a winner with Cold Chisel. You don't have to pick a favourite. Their songs are like your children, you can't pick a favourite.
Growing up as a child with the war all over the television, and the radio, and throw in the death of my dad in early 64’, all that and then the war...made me think grown up thoughts at age eight, and then avoiding the draft until I could serve...just not in Vietnam, about ten years I served, thank God not in war.
I actually know this band. Barnes asked me to be the guitarist in this band out front of his mother's house at Smithfield Plains in SA. I've actually jammed with this band and Moss borrowed my amp. Hilarious.
Jimmy and Ian Moss are joint lead singers, when one is lead the other becomes back up. Jimmy is as big now as he was in the 70,s 80,s,90,s,2000,s 2010,s and has just released a new album and has just played concerts all around Australia and New Zealand. At 66 year's of age he still sounds bloody incredible. Here are two song's that he released a couple of months ago Soothe Me with Sam Moore, and Do you love me with Josh Teskey. Sam Moore is from a group called Sam and Dave he is a legend in America in the Blues and Soul music from I think the 50,s 60,s. Josh Teskey is another Australian singer.
Jimmy Barnes (lead singer), Phil Small on bass guitar, Ian Moss (the guy singing at the beginning of the clip) on guitar and vocals, Charlie Drayton on drums and Don Walker on keys.
@@CVTECK1 thanks for replying yep just listened to it. Brilliant.👏 One of my faves of Jimmy solo is lay down your guns. Bit of history Cold chisel tried to make it in the U.S. back in the 80s but were promoted as a heavy metal band by mistake or design. So you can imagine the crowd that turned up. Unfortunately it didn't end well. All the best.🍻
Great reaction and performance, love Jimmy just lurking in the background only stepping into the light occasionally. But his presence was felt right through. Mossy on guitar and lead vocals for this track is brilliant in his own right. So different voices that work perfectly together.
I lived down under for 10 years. The sound, films, and people are very different and wonderfully unique. A great interesting experience that you never forget.
Ian Moss starts singing - great singer and guitarist - Jimmy was mostly the lead - but there were a few songs where Mossy took the lead - great band - I grew up listening to them from teens to 60 - Cold Chisel were big from late 70's and generations still love their music here - and Jimmy of course still does concerts now - and live is right - I assume you know the famous civil rights singer and song by Sam Cooke 'Change is gonna come' - Jimmy does a fantastic cover of this song live 1984 - The video not great but the sound is pretty good.
Cold Chisel - Jimmy Vocals Ian Moss lead guitar and vocals Don Walker keys and main songsmith for the group Steve Prestwich drummer and percussion Phil Small Base Dave Blight harmonica. So much talent in one amazing band
That is the amazing thing about jimmy/ cold chisel, whether u see him/them in a stadium -arena or club there r adults with their teenage children at most gigs who sing most songs word for word in the crowd 😁😁
I first heard this song when it was covered by John Farnham as part of his Classic Jack live concert. It took me some time to realise it wasnt about war, but instead about the ending of a relationship, probably a marriage and was the singer pouring out their feelings about the situation. Years later I found this version, the original so to speak and it is even more moving because of the raw emotion put into the song by the rasp of Jimmy Barnes and the mournful voice of Ian Moss. When my wife ended our marriage about 4 years ago this song took on an even more powerful meaning and still today brings a lump to my throat. Fantastic song and great reaction. John Pouw NZ
Ive allways thought it was about a break up.. "When the war is over got to start again.. Try to a trace of what it was back then.. You and i we used each others shoulders.. Just a page im lost in all its glory.. How can i go home and not get blown away.. Aint no body guna steal this heart away.."
First guy is Ian Moss and he is God level singer/guitarist :) thanks for the reaction brother, and thanks so much for the shout out on the AFL video of Adam Saad, did not expect it :) PS more cold chisel please - try Bow river if you want to be "blown away" :)
I fell a bit sorry for Mossy ending up in a band with Jimmy. He's so talented & in any other band he'd be on lead vocals but not when you've got a Jimmy in the mix 😄
Chisel is timeless. Im 57 and they are my teen years. My girls are 20's and its all on their play lists too. When "The Last Stand" was played at cinemas, u couldnt move. Ian Moss is one of 2 shared lead singers, both having wonderful solo careers when chisel broke up.
@@CVTECK1 I'd say there is easily over 50 great songs by Cold Chisel. I do not have a favourite song as they have way too many I love. I could listen to this, Forever Now or Tomorrow and love them all just as much. Saturday Night is another track like this where both Ian Moss and Jimmy Barnes share the lead vocals.
@@CVTECK1Well clearly Ian is the way better guitar player but Jimmy a more dynamic singer. Ian has a nice voice but Jimmy has that unique earthy power that I not heard any other singer have to the level he has. I do not want Ian lead vocals on their song Tomorrow and I do not want to hear anyone else in the band sing Georgia or Janelle live but Ian. Different styles but also awesome together like in this song and many others.
Ian Moss is the other singer. Very talented guitarist, songwriter and singer in his own right. Cold Chisel were a super-group. Every one of their songs is incredible. Check out "Choir Girl" by Cold Chisel and also "Cold Stone" by Jimmy Barnes and Joe Bonamassa.
Good catch on the younger audience members. Theres people in the audience being moved to tears by a song that was released before they were born. The name of the song is a bit misleading, the ‘War’ is actually the ending of a relationship, not an actual military action. Its not overstating it to say that cold chisel are absolute cultural icons in Australia. They hit home in a very personal way with their lyrics, the songs are very much about and part if the Australian experience, of loss, longing and hope - something that pretty much everyone can connect with on some level.
First time hearing this song was on No Reins by Little River Band, the last album Jihn Farnham was the lead singer on in the '80's. A few months ago I rediscovered John on a reactor's channel sinnging Help with Melbourne Syphony Orchestra and started listening to more of John's music and discoveref Jimmy Barnes as a result of tgat exploration.
Love Barnsey and Ian. Incredible musicians. You asked where this song takes me and it takes me and it take me to a level I don't even know how to explain. I feel it with every ounce of my being and it elicits a whole range of emotions. Happiness, sadness and everything in between. Amazing song. Has always been one of my favourites. Enjoyed your reaction to Aussie music thank you :) Just subscribed x
I always say music takes us on a journey and music is the soundtrack of our life. A song can take you to a place when you first heard it and stays with you even the felling stays with you. Thanks
Grew up seeing chisel and many other great aussie bands in the 70's 80's. Best 2 music decades ever. I may be a little bias, but go down that rabbit hole. Amazing. Also look a today's Aussie artist. Jimmy's actually one of them. He and his family got a lot of people through covid iso with their posts. Wonderful family. 🥰🥰
Ian Moss is the guitarist /singer and this is jimmys band cold chisel Ian Moss wast judged the best australian guitariest for many years in a row like 7
Great seeing blokes like this finding out about Oz bands , who have their own sound without the hairspray bullshit of big American bands , starts as clic’s & ends up being privy to some of the greatest music on the planet with its own Oz micro culture.
I grew up with Cold Chisel, 80s 90s, check out album East, singer is Ian Moss, Mossy to us, check out Four Walls song live pub rock is Aussie was out of control, Check out Midnight Oil, Australian Crawl, Choirboys, Mental as Anything the list goes on Aussie bands during this period owned rock and roll. check out Jimmy Barnes Documentary
This song was released back in 1982, both Ian Moss and Jimmy sang in Cold Chisel since its inception. This is a pared back version as the original rocked a bit harder. I prefer earlier versions myself.
I am going to throw spanner in the works here, I think Ian Moss is up there as one of the best guitar player in the world his the jimi Hendrix of America.
If you can find it, the Documentary / music video concert 'The Last Stand' is a great insight to the power and the passion that was Cold Chisel at their original peak.
@@CVTECK1 all good my man. One thing I’ll say, which people outside of Australia don’t really understand is that the big four of Australian rock music is: AC/DC, Cold Chisel, Midnight Oil, and INXS. Cold Chisel never went to the US market because they didn’t “fit in” with what was popular when they were breaking in the early 80s, and I think Midnight Oil are very unapologetically Australian in their songwriting, which probably means that they don’t hit the same internationally. That said, I know plenty of people who would swear Cold Chisel is the greatest band of all time, and a few who say the same of Midnight Oil. It always blows my mind that rock fans in America in particular have virtually no knowledge of Cold Chisel or Midnight Oil given how huge they are here (still!)
@@brontepetropoulos4755 funny thing is lately in the USA there has been some sigging competition going on with some of my favorite artists and they sounded like kaka on stage haaa. Because with music now people want to add all kids of kaka to their voice and change voice pitch all with computer and when they sing live is so bad.
My 3 favourite bands are Metallica, Led Zeppelin and Cold Chisel. That gives you an indication of how highly i rate them. All 3 bands barely have one bad song between them.
Yes I agree to a point . Cold chisel is best viewed live except for jimmy Barnes and joe bonamassa stone cold . It’sa must the best portrayal of jimmys voice.
![By popular request!! FIRST reaction to Cold Chisel - When The War Is Over [LIVE] Just AMAZED!!](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/lBUrhRkvQEg/mqdefault.jpg)
Ian Moss is one of Australia's great guitarists. Also a great vocalist.
*Fact*
I have no words to say
Barnsey and Mossy - are great Aussies. A favourite Chisel song.
Mossy and Barnesy together is the perfect combo. They complement each other so well. What a band they were and still are today.
I love these two fellas Chris
@@CVTECK1 jimmy barnes lead singer ian moss on guitar player also sings perfect combo
with don walker piano phill small bass
and steve pestwich drums
This song for me personally helped me through ptsd after being in a very abusive relationship. Cold chisel as a whole is amazing but individual talented too. The beauty of this song is it can mean something different to someone going through things and make them feel not alone
You know what I love? Cold Chisel went to America and was told Americans wouldn’t ‘get them’. Particularly Jimmy and his ‘screaming.’ (You’ve got nothing I want was written in response.

ohh wow. That is a great story and forever connected with Jimmy. that is cool.
That’s an awesome story! Thanks for sharing 😊
Haha I thought it was too cute not to share🤣🤣

You gotta check out “bow river” from this same concert and you will be blown away
Thanks for the info George and im ready for this Cold Chisel Journey.
@@CVTECK1 man wait till you hear their cover of “wild thing”
I see what you did there George! And great suggestion!
@@jemxs not very subtle...but yes Wild thing ...live from the Last Stand Concert is a must
Yes a must ☝️☝️☝️☝️that and Wild Thing from the last stand concert please! 🙏♥️👍
Can I suggest you react to Bow River live….same concert I think. And also Ian Moss singing Georgia in his studio. Both songs are brilliant.
Yesss!!
Yes!!!
And Ita !
Tell me any other band you know that has two INCREDIBLE lead vocalists and where EVERY member of the band can and has written songs. Jimmy is the usual lead vocalist for Cold Chisel but many of their songs were sung by both him and Ian Moss or even a few by Mossy alone. This song was written by the late Steve Prestwich (drummer)..

@@CVTECK1 check out Jimmy in 1984 singing a cover of “ a change is gonna come” his vocals in that one are crazy
@@CVTECK1 either do we! Well we do but you know what I mean 😅
Split Enz comes to mind with the brothers Finn! And many song contributors also!
@@jemxs if I heard these guys sing one some I'm signing them up lol.
That was Ian Moss. He is the lead guitarist. He makes an electric guitar sing mate
Written by the drummer, Steve Prestwich (R.I.P.)
This is just heartbreaking this song.. about the loss of innocence..
The album version is awesome also..
Ian Moss is equally as good as Jimmy. Different style and tone But their voices harmonise so well together. Ian is also considered a lead singer in the band and went on to a solid solo career as well after the band broke up. Some of the best musicians and songwriters ever were in this group..
Check out Bow River...written and sung by Ian
Yeah Moss has a great voice as well. I will do some research on Moss and enjoy some great music
@@martinm1231 Really wow. I will listen more and see.

Ian Moss and Barnsey. Chisel. The GOAT.
Australia's greatest & the world's most unrecognised soul/blues/rock band. Arguably the best ever, anywhere.
Mossy is like Al Green (vocals) & Eric Clapton (guitar) in one + Jimmy a powerhouse - the whole band = brilliant & been gifted Australian audiences for 50 years. Great to see them being more globally acknowledged, shared & celebrated ....at last 🙏🎸🎤💜🎶🌏🌠🎉

The “ war “ so to speak is of two lovers an the hard work loving each other is , an how after all the fighting they can still love each other
Sometimes it feels that way
John Farnham... Was from a band called... " The Little River Band" ... But I did not tell that....
I was introduced to this song by my brother. He really likes Jimmy.
I love Jimmy Barnes. S/O to your brother he's has a great taste and ear for good music.
Need to check out Chisel's version of Wild Thing, from their Last Stand concert in '83.
Jimmy Barnes (lead singer), Phil Small on bass guitar, Ian Moss (the guy singing at the beginning of the clip) on guitar and vocals, Charlie Drayton on drums and Don Walker on keys.
GREAT info Wildeprods thank you. I will look up some stuff on Moss.

It's a genuine chemistry.

That is the amazing thing about jimmy/ cold chisel, whether u see him/them in a stadium -arena or club there r adults with their teenage children at most gigs who sing most songs word for word in the crowd 😁😁
Yeah i noticed it's a mix older and younger i love it and that tells you how loved Jimmy and cold chisel is.
I first heard this song when it was covered by John Farnham as part of his Classic Jack live concert. It took me some time to realise it wasnt about war, but instead about the ending of a relationship, probably a marriage and was the singer pouring out their feelings about the situation. Years later I found this version, the original so to speak and it is even more moving because of the raw emotion put into the song by the rasp of Jimmy Barnes and the mournful voice of Ian Moss. When my wife ended our marriage about 4 years ago this song took on an even more powerful meaning and still today brings a lump to my throat. Fantastic song and great reaction. John Pouw NZ
Ian moss is the first singer!Jimmy comes into it later!
Ive allways thought it was about a break up..
"When the war is over got to start again..
Try to a trace of what it was back then..
You and i we used each others shoulders..
Just a page im lost in all its glory..
How can i go home and not get blown away..
Aint no body guna steal this heart away.."
First guy is Ian Moss and he is God level singer/guitarist :) thanks for the reaction brother, and thanks so much for the shout out on the AFL video of Adam Saad, did not expect it :) PS more cold chisel please - try Bow river if you want to be "blown away" :)
Thanks for the info!
I fell a bit sorry for Mossy ending up in a band with Jimmy. He's so talented & in any other band he'd be on lead vocals but not when you've got a Jimmy in the mix 😄
I still See Moss standing out but i understand with you mean but that .
Takes me back to my 20's sitting by the river on weekends away with good friends. 35-40 years ago. Good times & great music.
Rock on! Deb
John Farnham also did a killer cover of this cold Chisel classic in 2003 ruclips.net/video/BekbvlLzMWc/видео.html
saved!!!!
@@CVTECK1 this is absolutely worth checking out! Make sure it’s the version George has sent you, 2003.
@@Dr_KAP yes no worries miss swan.
@@CVTECK1 thanks Mr Swan
Chisel is timeless. Im 57 and they are my teen years. My girls are 20's and its all on their play lists too. When "The Last Stand" was played at cinemas, u couldnt move. Ian Moss is one of 2 shared lead singers, both having wonderful solo careers when chisel broke up.
This is iconic Australian stuff....generations be damned
Ian Moss. They’re both in the band Cold Chisel.
This song reminds me of my childhood, backyard parties, bonfires and summer nights, love it
Great reaction. Ian Moss is the vocalist/lead guitar. He sang lead here but Jimmy is the lead singer of the band on most songs.
Ohh ok. That is a name i want to look up too. But cold chisel is great more songs on the way.
@@CVTECK1 I'd say there is easily over 50 great songs by Cold Chisel.
I do not have a favourite song as they have way too many I love.
I could listen to this, Forever Now or Tomorrow and love them all just as much.
Saturday Night is another track like this where both Ian Moss and Jimmy Barnes share the lead vocals.
@@shaundgb7367 ok I will keep those in mind. Someone said Moss was better then Jimmy but I will listen more to see who's voice I like better
@@CVTECK1Well clearly Ian is the way better guitar player but Jimmy a more dynamic singer. Ian has a nice voice but Jimmy has that unique earthy power that I not heard any other singer have to the level he has.
I do not want Ian lead vocals on their song Tomorrow and I do not want to hear anyone else in the band sing Georgia or Janelle live but Ian. Different styles but also awesome together like in this song and many others.
This is Ian Moss. He went solo after Chisel broke up. Check him out. Thank you for your reactions, mate...!! They are legend in Australian rock bank.
Thanks for the info
Ian Moss is the other singer. Very talented guitarist, songwriter and singer in his own right. Cold Chisel were a super-group. Every one of their songs is incredible. Check out "Choir Girl" by Cold Chisel and also "Cold Stone" by Jimmy Barnes and Joe Bonamassa.
I just finished "cold stone" ohhhhhhh man I was jamming haaa. Stone cold is so good and I was on my deck having a drink playing stone cold.
And Flame Trees
Good catch on the younger audience members. Theres people in the audience being moved to tears by a song that was released before they were born. The name of the song is a bit misleading, the ‘War’ is actually the ending of a relationship, not an actual military action. Its not overstating it to say that cold chisel are absolute cultural icons in Australia. They hit home in a very personal way with their lyrics, the songs are very much about and part if the Australian experience, of loss, longing and hope - something that pretty much everyone can connect with on some level.
Ian Moss , wrote many of Chisels songs
Mossy is great
First time hearing this song was on No Reins by Little River Band, the last album Jihn Farnham was the lead singer on in the '80's. A few months ago I rediscovered John on a reactor's channel sinnging Help with Melbourne Syphony Orchestra and started listening to more of John's music and discoveref Jimmy Barnes as a result of tgat exploration.
Jimmy never disappoints.
I don't think he ever will.
Main singer in this song is "Ian Moss".
Ian moss is the first guy who starts the song

Love Barnsey and Ian. Incredible musicians. You asked where this song takes me and it takes me and it take me to a level I don't even know how to explain. I feel it with every ounce of my being and it elicits a whole range of emotions. Happiness, sadness and everything in between. Amazing song. Has always been one of my favourites. Enjoyed your reaction to Aussie music thank you :) Just subscribed x
I always say music takes us on a journey and music is the soundtrack of our life. A song can take you to a place when you first heard it and stays with you even the felling stays with you. Thanks
I always think it's a beautiful love song😊 Ian Moss starts the song. He's fantastic 😃🌏🪐🌕🙏🇦🇺🐦🦋🌸🌞🌴🏡🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
Grew up seeing chisel and many other great aussie bands in the 70's 80's. Best 2 music decades ever. I may be a little bias, but go down that rabbit hole. Amazing. Also look a today's Aussie artist. Jimmy's actually one of them. He and his family got a lot of people through covid iso with their posts. Wonderful family. 🥰🥰
Jimmy is amazing but adding him to the band with Moss is just great Music.
Ian Moss is the guitarist /singer and this is jimmys band cold chisel Ian Moss wast judged the best australian guitariest for many years in a row like 7
Look for Ian Moss doing Georgia, it wasn't 9n the playlist, but he did it anyway.
Great seeing blokes like this finding out about Oz bands ,
who have their own sound without the hairspray bullshit of big American bands ,
starts as clic’s & ends up being privy to some of the greatest music on the planet with its own Oz micro culture.
Ian Moss rocks. Always preferred him over Jimmy, and he is great live.
I will look into Moss. Thanks Dean
Jimmy is the lead but Ian Moss is still incredible
I agree
Mossy. What a legend! Believe this song is about the Vietnam War but could be wrong.
"don't do Jimmy's stuff unless it's live" - the same goes with John Farnham
hey Dave believe me i been told haaaaa and im listening
Listen to the studio version
I have goosebumps all over my body before this even starts!
I grew up with Cold Chisel, 80s 90s, check out album East, singer is Ian Moss, Mossy to us, check out Four Walls song live pub rock is Aussie was out of control, Check out Midnight Oil, Australian Crawl, Choirboys, Mental as Anything the list goes on Aussie bands during this period owned rock and roll. check out Jimmy Barnes Documentary
Ian Moss is awesome!
This song was released back in 1982, both Ian Moss and Jimmy sang in Cold Chisel since its inception. This is a pared back version as the original rocked a bit harder. I prefer earlier versions myself.
I am going to throw spanner in the works here, I think Ian Moss is up there as one of the best guitar player in the world his the jimi Hendrix of America.
Always do Australian singers live, studio versions are great but live versions are always so much better!
Definitely!
Haven't been wrong yet!
Singer is Ian Moss. Band is cold chisel
Ian moss
John Mayer looks like Ian Moss, not the other way round lol
lol GG Cooper
If you can find it, the Documentary / music video concert 'The Last Stand' is a great insight to the power and the passion that was Cold Chisel at their original peak.

My guy, John Meyer couldn’t tie Ian Moss’ boots 😉
haaaaaaaa. he just looke like him that's all well a little bit. nah they are both great
@@CVTECK1 all good my man.
One thing I’ll say, which people outside of Australia don’t really understand is that the big four of Australian rock music is: AC/DC, Cold Chisel, Midnight Oil, and INXS.
Cold Chisel never went to the US market because they didn’t “fit in” with what was popular when they were breaking in the early 80s, and I think Midnight Oil are very unapologetically Australian in their songwriting, which probably means that they don’t hit the same internationally.
That said, I know plenty of people who would swear Cold Chisel is the greatest band of all time, and a few who say the same of Midnight Oil.
It always blows my mind that rock fans in America in particular have virtually no knowledge of Cold Chisel or Midnight Oil given how huge they are here (still!)
Ian moss singing at the Monet and than Jimmy barns
Mate ya gotta listen too their original stuff on album from the 70's
Ian moss lead guitarist and lead singer on some songs
Yeah always do any Aussie artist live
I'm learning haaaa
💯agree all ozzy bands, singers are best live
Ozz
@@brontepetropoulos4755 funny thing is lately in the USA there has been some sigging competition going on with some of my favorite artists and they sounded like kaka on stage haaa. Because with music now people want to add all kids of kaka to their voice and change voice pitch all with computer and when they sing live is so bad.
My 3 favourite bands are Metallica, Led Zeppelin and Cold Chisel. That gives you an indication of how highly i rate them. All 3 bands barely have one bad song between them.
Yes I agree to a point . Cold chisel is best viewed live except for jimmy Barnes and joe bonamassa stone cold . It’sa must the best portrayal of jimmys voice.
Stone cold video o just finished and man that one blew me away
@@CVTECK1 glad you enjoyed can wait for reaction vid . Easily in my top 5 songs of all time
Ian moss.
Google him.
Im crying at the moment bro
@CVTECK1 Have you watched John Farnham do this song? Have a look at When the war is over - Whispering Jack Live version. It'll blow you away as well.
Please do Jimmy Barnes - Lay Down Your Guns.
That is a song i haven't seen anyone say James but will do.
@@CVTECK1 thanks, its underrated
