I came here thanks to Icehouse, and I'm glad I did... first the song gave me some vibes of Fallen from Graceland by Sambora and then it turned in 30 second to Mars with another vocalist... so well done, I didn't knew Michael had his own projects.. what a nice surprise.. the way he sing transports you, so vivid, so heartfelt, he does know how to transmit emotions.. he even made me love more Man of Colors with him on vocals, the first time I heard him I wasn't even on the same room my family was, and I started to cry, he called me like a siren's song.. nice voice man, you're out of this world!
I just Saw Michael Paynter on the Icehouse 40 Years Live, Roche Estate video I noticed his backing vocals on the opening song 'Icehouse' but was amazed at his backing vocals on Hey Little Girl'. His live backing vocals on 'Hey Little Girl' are better than those on the studio version. Then he did the high range vocals on 'Touch The Fire' and I was blown away at his vocal range, LIVE. Many well established singers can't hit the high range vocals live like Michael can. He was too amazing for words. So, I paused the Icehouse video to look for him on Discogs, found his 2014 release of 'Weary Stars' and ordered it after seeing this video. I wish Iva Davis would have had him do the high range vocals on 'No Promises' which is one of my favorite Icehouse songs. How do I support an artist like Michael Paynter so that he can release more music, especially since I'm from the US? Check site like Bandcamp?
He reminds me of the script. This song has the same sound as moon boots and hurricane combined. Someone check this out and please assure me that I'm not imagining things. But good song!
Watched him open for Shannon Knoll about 10 years ago and was blown away. This guy has the best male voice Australia has seen since Farnham, Braithwaite and Shorrock
Loved you on The Voice and both times I've seen you with Icehouse. It was brilliant to see you open for them this year. Loving 'Let Go' - keep it up Michael, your voice is amazing!
YES YES YES!!!! EXCELLENT SONG LYRICALLY AND MELODICALLY, LOVE THE PRODUCTION...not so sure about the creepy eye thing...unless song appears in a vampire themed movie??....THE WAIT WAS DEFINATELY WORTH IT...LOVE THIS SONG!!!!!!!!! :)
Saw you last night at the Palm s...Man you are good .My Husband is a friend of Paul Gildaire`s he should be so so proud of you . You have a fantastic voice and a great guy even though you get you songs around the wrong way !!!.your buddy the other Michael is good too. stay Accoustic
Really love the song, have been sharing - more to come I hope because it's been a long time waiting ... MP may have to take note of negative comments. Not the time to be single minded - management and public relations have to be #1 in a muso's career ... Applaud Iva Davies for giving MP hope and direction ... Would like to see Michael get with KEITH URBAN when he tours in June - Melbourne perhaps !!! KU knows all about "Weary Stars", "It's A Long Way to the Top" and "Who Wouldn't Want To Be Me" and the music industry, what fails, what succeeds - ANYONE LISTENING ???
me: "This song is gorgeous, and now i'm going to kill it for myself by listening to it non-stop like i've done with all his other songs" But seriously, release more songs so I can spread it out and not get sick of any of them :) *wink wink, nudge nudge*
I'm sure it is open for interpretation but I think that they are ghosts from his past. And in the end rather than haunting him she becomes just a part of his past too.

+Zsanett So'e He's got an incredible voice. Have recently heard him perform Icehouse's 'Man Of Colours' at an Icehouse concert. The man has talent!
I bet he needs to surface ppl need to realise him 🙏🏻 his voice is out of this world I don't get how he didn't make it further on The Voice 😁
Because he was already famous, and he shouldn't have gone on The Voice.
I love it. Well done Mike. Video and song fantastic. You deserve this recognition. It's your time.

@@kerry0010 you are welcome😊
Et bien ql voix ce Jeune australien
Wish he’d try again....
What're the guitars plugged into?
Why are their eyes like that?
Really like the song and the scenery is great but I just don't get the 'white eyes' sorry - can anyone please enlighten me?
I'm sure it is open for interpretation but I think that they are ghosts from his past. And in the end rather than haunting him she becomes just a part of his past too.
astevie
Thank you for your interpretation - maybe I'm not as deep a thinker as some. :)
love the awesome sound, but, yeah...don't get the eye thing- maybe should have gone for the piercing coloured contacts instead?
2019?
Why are their eyes like that?
The next john farnham
