@@poetjester What? The lead Singer Rai is an incredibly talented musician, he's a top jazz pianist. The bassist also plays jazz, it's notoriously difficult music to play. I don't know about the guitarist and the drummer but I'm sure they're great too
This song only got to 43 in the charts at the time. WTF?!!! - Should have rocketed straight to Number One! It should be played every day on every radio station in Australia! An absolute classic!
legend has it, it still sits at 43 in the charts today, and this is also the exact temperature on the beach in celsius the day that they shot that video.
Bondi rescue song!!! Every time they play it on the episodes I vibe along cause I’m addicted, thanks bondi rescue, that’s what I get for living in Australia 🇦🇺🇦🇺😂😎
Absolutely every summer i blast this amazing song down at Parsley Bay Beach it's so nostalgic. Thirsty Merc is the Epitome of the Eastern suburbs chilled, fun & looney ny kinda pple
Saw you in Geelong a few nights ago (Dec 2024). never heard of you guys before (I come from the UK) but man! you guys rocked! brilliant and i recognised more songs than my wife (who's the fan) thought I would.... thanks for a brilliant night guys!
I never actually realized that this was a full song I thought that Bondi Rescue had written the chorus for their intro but I'm so very glad this is a full song! Now I really want this video redone with the lifeguards lip-synching and just having fun with maybe a few surfing shots xxx
HAHAHA I felt attacked as an asian AHHAHAHHA but yeah I must agree that most of the rescues are asians. On our defense, flags isn't really much of a thing here in Asia I believe.
Man i get a lot of nostalgia listening to this.. Even when i sometimes see bondi rescue I just get so nostalgic because i always listened to this song when i was young in like 2007 or 2008 maybe? Ahh memories.
I found this last year through Bondi Rescue. The chorus perfectly summed it up - knowing I was coming to Australia the next summer, I spent the winter dreaming of finally seeing Bondi. Today it came true… I went to Bondi :)
Im on a mission this summer! And that is to take this song with me to Bali and make every bar singer learn it! And go back next year and hear every bar singer SING IT! Put it up there with Bob Marley & Santana!
Take me back to the sweet times The hot nights Everything is gonna be alright In the summertime Baby, in the summertime And even if I have to wait til next year I don't care All I know is that I'll meet you there In the summertime Baby, in the summertime That is where I'll be
Great tunes after having an overdose of Christmas music. Especially there down under in Australia and this is also on the same page as Brazil, Argentina and South Africa where the Summer Christmas magic happens.
Still blazin' to this in 2020
Did you fuck shit up in barilaro’s estate whilst cranking this?
Thirsty 4 Merc

Best song ever for this series! 🥰🤗
Greetings to all Bondi Lifeguards! 😌😝
It still sounds brand new :)
this shoulda been a world wide hit

the chorus is rlly catchy but the rest is kinda average
Ben Read Yeah.....ok
I know right
It's awful 🤣
Beach days, warm nights, cold beer, cricket, sleeping with the fan on, Sundays sessions, boardies...... I fucking love summer
This song describes the meaning of life
Finn Agnew eh that's true good on you for noticing enjoy the rest of your day
@@tomstaunton1039 how does it feel now that you are 1 year older
Especially in Australia 🇦🇺🇦🇺
Nah it doesnt my guy
Mate this song will never age it still hits the same ❤❤❤❤❤❤ One of the most Catchy songs
Never head of them until today. The Sammy Hagar (Satriani) tour brought me here. This is excellent. Sounds like happy Stone Temple Pilots. Love it! 🙂
Saw you in Geelong a few nights ago (Dec 2024). never heard of you guys before (I come from the UK) but man! you guys rocked! brilliant and i recognised more songs than my wife (who's the fan) thought I would.... thanks for a brilliant night guys!
This song makes me feel so happy. It reminds of watching Bondi rescue with my daughter. Happy days😊
I thought this song was like world famous..this played everywhere when it came out
Whenever I hear this it takes me to the beach
Yup
This song still does it for me 60% of the time, everytime
I want you to rethink what you said
@@de_gree I want you to watch Anchorman
*every time
So many people brough here by bondi rescue,..meanwhile im here because of shopping in Coles, and heard it on the radio
Coles yuck that's why I pick woolies
People at Cole’s: this is Coles radio
Lol how cool
Who knew this would become such an iconic Aussie song 😍
First heard this watching Bondi Rescue and I absolutely love it and play it over and over again!
Saw these guys at Rainbow Beach last week, still a great band.
I never actually realized that this was a full song I thought that Bondi Rescue had written the chorus for their intro but I'm so very glad this is a full song! Now I really want this video redone with the lifeguards lip-synching and just having fun with maybe a few surfing shots xxx

This song has finally hit 1M views, very well deserved.
I can’t believe that this song wasn’t a number one hit. Kiwi watching Bondi rescue
Somehow this song has tricked me into thinking i like summer when i actually dont
this is just the best starting theme for Bondi Rescue. xD
how does it feel that you are now 5 years older lol
This is the only song my youngest son would fall asleep to.
@@DrivenByMindset Stop needling people about getting older. My 8 inch cock is the same length.

@@trevorphilips9399 haha >:/ no i reckon they were trying to make a joke of one of the music scenes, but idk which one
I was a international student in sydney, it already past more than decade, but still miss aussie beaches and atmosphere
Perfect song to end a spectacular summer.
head banging to this in '24
Ah yes bondi rescuse, the show where Asian tourists don't understand what simple flags mean
lol
BAHAHAHAHHAHA
This is why Asian tourists don’t understand the Australian beach lifestyle
HAHAHA I felt attacked as an asian AHHAHAHHA but yeah I must agree that most of the rescues are asians. On our defense, flags isn't really much of a thing here in Asia I believe.
It's always them
Saw them live yesterday :)
WHo else got caught in a rip whilst watching bondi and somehow ended up here?
the good old bondi rescue days
Man i get a lot of nostalgia listening to this.. Even when i sometimes see bondi rescue I just get so nostalgic because i always listened to this song when i was young in like 2007 or 2008 maybe? Ahh memories.

I love it, I was looking for this song from the Bondi Rescue show. It is a very happy and friendly song.
Me: Metal is the only good genre. Hands down.
*this song comes on*
Me: BABY IN THE SUMMER TIME, THAT IS WHERE I’LL BE!
Fuck Metal.
Anyone 2021 and rocking out to this?
this reminds me of the good times :)
this song is so timeless
Great tunes after having an overdose of Christmas music. Especially there down under in Australia and this is also on the same page as Brazil, Argentina and South Africa where the Summer Christmas magic happens.
I actually got to meet the lead guitarist to this band and i ended up getting my guitar signed by him
Nice
I LOVE Bondie Rescue. This is a GREAT song.
