Only just discovered Kev Carmody in 2014, isn't he a wonderfully intelligent, talented and honest man. His music tells it how it is, helping lift the veil pulled over our eyes by our tyrannical murderous governments . At 50 years of age I've reached a point in my life, that sadly I'm ashamed of myself for never taking the time, to learn about the Aborigines that are the rightful owners of the land we live on. I'm happy to say though, I'm now looking forward to changing that, you could too. They could've shown us a better way, all we had to do was listen, but it's not too late.
Wow... I want to cry. So beautiful. I'm fascinated by your culture. I'm an American born Caribbean breed with no roots. I have no idea what African tribe my families derive from. Hold on to your rich culture. Imagine what it feels like to not know anything at all. Check out issues in Jamaica. Similar struggles happening. Mental slavery is what these western governments impose after the first violation. The Saami are European indigenous people and they too face discrimination in their own land. The only good thing that came out of conquests anywhere was Christianity. I'm happy to know Jesus and not some vengeful spirit. By the way, some Native Americans are inspired by Bob Marley. Lets support each other, all "conquered" peoples. I know I have white blood but I don't pass.i want to connect with my dominant side.. Ugh. Idk. I guess I'm still soul searching and. Blah. God bless and much love. One love :)
I am a white Australian, and totally ashamed of our history with our indigenous people. Have you listened to any Archie Roach songs? They really tell their story. Attitudes are very slowly improving in this country - but we have a long way to go. God Bless you on your journey.
Thank you for your comment. I have white blood and family too. And it's not everybody's fault. In today's age it's money that separates people, or social status. The struggle.is all over the world. The Irish went through it too. We're all human beings and we all share this beautiful planet. God bless and I hope all is well :)
I saw him play in Katoomba about 20 years ago and between songs he spoke more wisdom than I’ve ever heard from anyone. So glad he’s had such a powerful effect on Australian politics despite the voting loss in 2022. The one nation people from Queensland are on the road to embarrassment destruction and Kev Carmody’s truth will prevail!
Seriously peeking in others accounts not real bright now lets get the truth out and let justice come for those who fought with real integrity discernment and being mindful of the Most High Source of all 💕💕💕
This version of Thou Shalt Not Steal was recorded in 1989 with Mixed Relations and was released in 1993 as the B side to the single of Freedom. It is not the original version that appeared on 1988 Pillars Of Society. I produced this version so I know. I was there. The clip was produced by Paul Fenech for ABC show Blackout. All the best and keep up the good work, have not seen this clip for years.
I was one of the first to play Kevin’s song when I had a radio show at 3CR radio station when it first came out. Fitzroy mob fell in love with Kev and the song…

I just saw this guy's story about From Little Things Big Things Grow - from part-aboriginal part-Irish stock, I remembered reading of the early racism between white settlers in Australia was the English looking down on the Irish (e.g. Ned Kelly) - so Kev Carmody incorporates both forms of racism - white on black, and white on white
@@ultimobile I came to Australia in the 1980’s and I am a white settler and went to a lecture about aboriginal culture at the Theosophical society in Sydney. It was excellent in its information about the aboriginal spiritual life and the lecture made such a huge impression on me that when I was teaching in high and primary schools I played a big role in the aboriginal society’s and dept of education art exhibiting initiatives. Years later, I was abused. I’d moved to a completely different area but stranger neighbors helped me and I discovered they had aboriginal ancestry. I think they sensed that something had happened and one neighbor gave me a hand painted aboriginal art carving which I would never let go of. Some Europeans connect, more strongly than other white settlers, to the true spirits of the earth! I saw Kev Carmody play in Katoomba and heard his words of wisdom, Burham Burnham initiated a conversation with me so I feel that a connection has occurred beyond the realms of skin colour!!!
What an epic song from the godfather of indigenous music. It is rather hypocritical of us coming here stealing the land, the children, outlawing their languages, cultural practices and religions, and then forcing on them a new religion which professed "Thou Shalt not Steal" Happy 'Australia Day' ⊙︿⊙/ 26/01/2017
Fantastic song. Heads up for Joe Hayes who produced & put the money up for Kev's first album "Pillars of Society' in 1988. There were 1,000 copies made by him under the name of Rutabagas Records. He a few other believers worked real hard to get it out there.
Unc Kev is our living legend of blackfella music and hopefully get acknowledgemnt from Australia one day as a true orator of australian culture. He is my hero as a goori from biripai & dhungutti nations ( nsw)

I was in JB ihfi asked for Kev Comody and no-0ne had heard of him, I asked for warrumpi band and colored stone, again they didnt know. I was told to look in "world music" with all the foreign bands. I love this song and am sad to hear about Kevs health.
I'm currently working on Kev's new website. Seeing the number of requests for chords in these comments alone, I'll see if I can get him to include the basic chords with the song lyrics if that will help... just give us a couple of months and hopefully the new site will be up and running.
Some Churches have a lot to answer for, not all, some priests have a lot to answer for, not all, some black people have a lot to answer for , not all, Some white people have a lot to answer for not all. Gods words are for all. This is what I believe. Good or evil the choice is ours. D-evil > G-o-od. There is a war raging when to many people choose the wrong path, forgiveness is in choosing the right path. The love of God is so powerful, if you let him into your life.
What is Kevin really imparting to us ? My take . FASCISM rises wrapped in a flag ,holding a cross. BUT ! Extolling whatever virtue found in the Old Testament whilst ignoring the ongoing virtues to be found in the New.
you can always pack your bag and go home..........we have to continue to put with shit.....you are not obligated to stay here......SO GO HOME...your home not mine! i am at home!

oldblueshound - he's known to some as Australia's Bob Dylan, his voice does have that tint, this song is spot on, simple & beautiful.
Wonderful man, songwriter and musician
Wow

Well done Andy. Grateful for your contribution.
It never occurred to me to compare it to my original vinyl. It is still a great song by a great songwriter.
Powerfully produced. Well done Andy. It's obviously different form the original. Both are great. What a song! Our Australian history in 4 minutes.
@@kikicrete Excellent production - this one packs even more of a punch that the Pillars - good on you!

Fuk, I've been living under a rock. Just discovered this guy. Reminds me of Billy Bragg.. Beautiful.
Love you Kev. Still think about you and hope you are going well...all the best
God is our only judge
People's are not but they will never forget or forgive Turn to God He forgives all
Thank God Amen
Dated? It is as relevant in 1788 as it is in 2013.
Despite Rudd's apology in 2007 the land is still being stolen today.
Luke Weyland 100 percent agree
Some extremely powerful lyrics
In this song. Kev is an inspiration for everybody.
One of the strongest songs I have heard in my entire life . To write the truth .
"If you call that progress, i say your reason is unsound"
Thank you goorda Kev, for your stand, your music, your words ✊🏽❤️🖤💛🔥👣
Aussie folk song cool and making a statement.Thanks for sharing Jay..Respect and Peace.
probably the best and most powerful song I've ever heard!
"Mostly their left hand hold a bible
Their right hand holds a gun"
That part is sad. Still true to this day sadly.
Kev Carmody- this GREAT Australian, this BRILLIANT song. Strong, true, an utter indictment on past wrongs. Lest we forget every wrong we committed.
It feels good that this country's best musician is from THIS land
Black Magic you might say.
Loved Kev for decades.
What an epic song from the godfather of indigenous music. It is rather hypocritical of us coming here stealing the land, the children, outlawing their languages, cultural practices and religions, and then forcing on them a new religion which professed "Thou Shalt not Steal"

Deep lyrics!!!

does anybodt have the chords for this song or tabs i am desperate
Australia seen from an Aboriginal point of view.
@charlierp True, I'm not one to compare and believe similarity translate to a lack of skill, I was just noting how alike they sound.
never has bob dylan's influence been more obvious. good song none the less.
please tell me whats wrong with kev. I didnt know. First George now.......sad heart
Tabs Or Chords Anyone ??
Black or white dont steal jah rastafari
don't blame Jesus Kev just blame them greedy captain cookers
@TutuFerret don't give em the chords, they can work it out for themselves. Like the old days ;)
Verse = GMaj-Dmaj-Amaj-Bmin
Chours = Gmaj-G/F#-Emin-Dmaj-Amaj
let em work the chords out for themselves ;)
just watch the video.
@Moulytone i can actually get hold on him vai this adress and thanks your a nice guy thanks alot
@shaolinkin and never in Bob Dylan has Woodie Guthrie been less obvious. One does not lessen the other.
Wooooowww black womanauu, thou shalt not steal!
@shaolinkin And in Bob Dylan, Woodie Guthrie is obvious. None lessens the other.
Some people have black skin
Some of people have dark hearts
Return sevenfold
🙄
Kind of sounds like Bob Dylan, very folky.
It's a bit dated. What does Kev think now?
you can always pack your bag and go home..........we have to continue to put with shit.....you are not obligated to stay here......SO GO HOME...your home not mine! i am at home!
Nul giroud
Whaeves, Kevs. We stole it fair and square. Try and get back boy, go on I dare you!
lol
So true!
