This is the first big song I recall that was about, (Australian), Aboriginal or Native Land Rights. In 1986 it proved to be wildly ahead of its time.
Being half native American this song hits hard and deep. We're tired of being removed from our lands and into reservations, missions and projects.
This is a political song about giving native Australian lands back to the Pintupi, who were among the very last people to come in from the desert. These "last contact" people began moving from the Gibson Desert to settlements and missions in the 1930s.
Not surprisingly, the singer became an actual politician. Every song of theirs was like a white paper on various socio-economic issues affecting Australia. Great band!
it's about Land Rights for Australia's indigenous peoples. Midnight Oil did a few tours out in the deserts, including with indigenous musicians. "Holden wrecks and boiling diesels" holden was the Aussie GM brand, like our Chev or Pontiac if you like. Lots and lots of 4wds out in the country areas of Australia, lots being diesel powered to get the required range before refills.
"Trumpets?!" Nope. Trombones.
One of Australia's biggest groups. They're talking about giving the land back to the Aboriginals. Australian indigenous people
They’re talking about, stealing land from the indigenous people.
Fun Fact....years after this song the Lead Singer became a minister in Australia....
The time has come, it belongs to them, lets give it back. Powerful words that helped to propel Australia down a path of reconciliation with its Indigenous people. Songs such as this and Treaty, Solid Rock and Treaty inspired a political movement
The Lead Singer is Peter Garrett... he goes 6'6"... What a Stage Presence he had.... Combined with a Unique Dancing Style.... Midnight Oil was Awesome.... Live Particularly!!!!
Midnight Oil were such a tremendous yet undervalued band here in the States. Great catchy songs, solid ecological and pro humanitarian lyrics... Just quality stuff in general. Their singer went on to some political aspirations in their native Australia where I believe he used his position to try and keep the policies for the indigenous cultures in Australia front-and-center. It's excellent to see the band getting some love here, they were truly unique.
Their song "Forgotten Years" is about the forgotten ANZACs (Australian and New Zealand soldiers of the First World War). Emotionally powerful as anything. Well worth a listen, if only offline (i.e. not as a reaction). Bring your tissues.
80's music literally had EVERYTHING! I truly believe it is one of the most innovative decades in music
It IS a very catchy song, with a terrific groove.
Seen midnight not long ago legends that wrote some bangers 🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼 this song is about my Aboriginal people of Australia 🖤💛❤️ its about taken land without treaty's still the only Commonwealth country that has not given a treaty to its first nationa people
Nice! These guys are great. They were big in the late 80's, early 90's & lot of great tunes like 'Blue Sky Mine' and my personal favorite 'Dreamworld.' Peter Garrett, the singer was actually elected to the Australian House of Representatives for the Labor Party, and subsequently became a Minister before retiring from politics a few years ago. Very conscientious band. They got back together in 2016, and are still active
Oct 20, 2019 - Meaning of the Title (“Beds Are Burning”) ... According to Hirst, the title is actually meant to highlight the richness of the aboriginal spirit.
I have every one of their albums and saw them live several times. They were absolutely electric in concert. I remember the first time I heard them I didn't think I liked his voice, but it grew on me super fast. They haven't got a bad song, and I'm not even exaggerating. Just another great Aussie band. We were spoiled with these guys and INXS and Men at Work in the 80s. They had a very different sound then bands from anywhere else.
I always loved
