What your subscribers are giving you is the kind of music, in all it's variety, that we all grew up listening to on the radio. Your hearing of very different music, is giving you a rounded out musical education, so you are coming to appreciate the artistry of people you would not have liked, had you never been open to trying new things. From my perspective, in differing moods, different music helps us to cope, or gets us stirred up to help us enjoy our lives more, it can make chores less of a burden, or get us dancing, each has it's place, and it is sad that the radio stations don't usually give such variety today. Isn't life more fun, as we get to know different styles of songs to suit our different mindsets. If everything sounded the same, no matter how well done, we could get bored with it. Music makes people feel good.
Well said. Love that. A variety of music for different moods.
Yes, too many radio stations stay in a lane and never branch out. As a Baby Boomer I grew up with everything from Big Bands, Jazz and Classical to Prog Rock, Head Bangers and plain old Rock. Like folk but only certain Country songs. Never quite cottoned on to Rap, but did like M&M and co. in 8 Mile. I still do housework to very loud Mozart.........guess I'll just stay weird. 😄
Paul Kelly just transcends genres. And the great thing about this song, even though it could be mistaken for a sad country song, is that it's not your typical tragedy, it's hopeful. The protagonist falls, but he puts the work in to better himself, and his wife sees the changes he has made and gives their love another chance.
And he has the self awareness to know that success isn't guaranteed. He wonders if he can even 'paint a picture and get them all to fit'.
Paul Kelly is the master of real talk.
Steve Connolly on guitar is so underrated too. That riff thru the song is the glue.
@@jacknortham8281 Real ones know. Never was into this stuff as a kid learning guitar was obsessed with the accadaccas and living ends of the country, but getting older has given me a MASSIVE appreciation for the guys like connolly. expert melody crafting and perfect example of "less is more"
Because I know you like context… The Buttery is an alcohol rehabilitation service here in Australia. And Silver Top refers to a taxi company. Glad you enjoyed this one.
Olympic was a bus company.
@@teatowel11 ha! I always thought Olymic was a train!
I'm an Aussie and never new about the buttery. Thanks..
& riding through the cane is going through sugar cane fields
@@Alberthoward3right9up nth nsw. And it sucked. EDIT. NOT JUST ALCOHOL REHAB, OTHER DRUGS TOO
Paul Kelly is a story teller that sings the story. In the spirit of our greatest Poets.
A great storyteller, speaks clearly and has that timbre to his voice that makes you want to listen carefully without demanding it. This story is also interesting that you are left wanting more, it stops before the happy or sad reunion so the song lets you come to your own conclusion.
He was 32 here. I worked at his gig two weeks ago, he's still at it now at 67
That's the beauty of Mr Paul Kelly, his song writing goes beyond genres, and because the stories are so relatable it doesn't matter what your background is, you just can't help liking it. He definitely deserves his legendary status
'He took it it pretty badly...she took both the kids." His lyricism gives me goosebumps. I love the way he plays around with words and strings them together in such clever ways. He says such simple things but in a way that makes people hear them in a profound way. I loved this reaction.
"Darling it hurts to see you down Darlinghurst tonight," is the best line ever.
Based on his talking voice he sings exactly how you'd expect. No surprises and very simple. But it just works. It's a quintessential Australian voice from a different era.
Easier to sing along with too. Instead of worrying about technique, you can just sink into the music and the story. Very traditional style; made by everyday people for everyday people 😊
The scope of Paul Kelly. 1. Spiritual: "Meet Me in the Middle of the Air", 2. Rock: "Dumb Things", 3. Ballads: "Bradman" & "From Little Things", 4. Country: "To Her Door" etc, etc, etc. He is a true song-writer and storyteller. He is our Bob Dylan!
Love Love Paul Kelly. One of Australias best story teller songwriters. And this is one of my favourite songs of his ...thank you for investing your time in our Aussie culture. We grew up with all these musicians that you are reacting too. Sometimes we take them for granted, but your reactions have rekindled our love and pride in these aussie classics
I'm from a hip hop and grunge background and I love this song too,if it sounds good it sounds good
Can you imagine growing up, being hit with these songs week after week. Aussie Crawl, INXS, Dragon, Cold chisel, etc. Throw Queen and The Police in to the mix for some extra flavour. Great times for music
I’ve always loved this song. Storytelling at its best 😊
Agree. Paul Kelly is one of the best storytellers.
I love all Paul Kelly's work but if you like this you would really like his song from little things big things grow.
And Randwick Bells. Beautiful.
It doesn't matter your musical preference you should always be able to appreciate a good song.
Hoodoo Gurus are another one to explore. "Like Wow, wipeout", "What's my scene" great Aussie songs.
Years later he modified the lyric “he came in on a Sunday, every muscle aching” to “he came in on a Sunday, Spencer Street Station” and ironically I’m watching your reaction on a train in Spencer Street Station (now known as Southern Cross Station)
Paul has a voice of a friend, which to me is the reason the quality isn’t important..
Loving your reactions..🇦🇺
Also changed Olympic to mcafferties as Olympic doesn't exist anymore.
I never knew the lyric was changed.....and to the iconic Spencer Street!!
I love Paul's references to iconic Melbourne spots, but that's a weird one...cos there's another lyric 'riding through the cane' so unless he's travelling north to south, there's no cane around Melbourne. I always assumed his family was in QLD cos of the cane but I could be wrong. I hope he does more Melb refence songs so we can educate him about St Kilda esplanade and the Northcote hill and MCG in 'Leaps and Bounds' ;D
@@ruth4376 i think it does mean from nth to sth, also, i think Paul's pretty familiar with st Kilda etc, he references it in another song, of ehjch i can't recall the name rn lol
@@ceeejay9112 Aahh ok that makes sense :) It's 'From St Kilda to King's Cross' you're thinking of, about being stuck in Sydney and homesick for Melbs ;)
I adore this song. Absolutely brilliant.
Good review Dom. What you explained about Paul Kelly being a story teller with a heavy focussed pen is exactly how I feel about Nick Cave (another amazing Australian artist). His versions of Hallelujah (different than other versions) or Love Letter are just amazing.
If you have time, have a listen and you'll get it straight away.
paul will always tell a story , and he does it so well.
Nic you have a good heart hence why you connect with his music 🙂
Paul tells stories that are relatable to us all 💕
Spot on. 👍
Happy you finally got to hear it. I knew the slang and Aussie references may confuse a little but figured the story was relatable enough to be understood.
For us Aussies though, it’s the slang that changes it from a good song to a conversation with a mate.
Another Aussie classic. Love that you love it. Enjoying styles you never thought you would shows a growth mindset that we should each embrace ... going from 2 guys shredding cellos while covering ACDC to Tim Minchin's Prejudice says it all!
Now I'm towing my car
There's a hole in the roof
My possessions are causing me suspicion
But there's no proof
Paul Kelly writes real. You can’t top that. Don’t need to think hard about what he’s saying, it relates, it flows, it’s a story that you want to hear & know the ending. He’s awesome! ✌🏼
My absolute favourite Paul Kelly song. Turn it up loud and sing along. Great driving song. Also love "Darlin it hurts"
The thing with Paul Kelly is that his songs are all relatable!
For me and I imagine a lot of other people, Paul Kelly is just so relatable. Almost like family.
As an Aussie who grew up listening to Kelly at his best, it is great to see this guy being recognised anywhere. He is an amazing songwriter and deserves a wider audience. His songs are never trivial or meaningless. He writes about real shit...things we can all identify with.
You say he is an average singer....so is Mick Jagger....so is Bob Dylan.....
The man, the legend!
This is a great song. Had a bbq with Paul Kelly once. He is a lovely, somewhat shy, Australian treasure.
Great song mate Paul Kelly is an absolute Aussie legend,dare I say the best song writer in Australia too.we love this guy
He did a project a little while ago putting some of Shakespeare's sonnets to music. Interesting & very unexpected. He has a knack for marrying lyrics and music, even if the lyrics aren't his own.
What draws one to his voice regardless of taste is the honesty and relatability... nothing fake about him
I'm very happy that we've been able to share these great Aussie songs with you, and that you really enjoy and appreciate them, and then share them with the world 🌏
Paul Kelly is a song writing genius. It's not just the lyrics, it's the music too. And like you say, his vocals don't reach any great heights as that's simply not his style. But his songs still sound perfect the way they are, and he still moves people with them
🎶🎤🌏🇦🇺🦘💥🔥🤘👌👍
Brilliant writer is Paul Kelly, comparable to Bob Dylan and Sixto Rodriguez when it comes to social commentary. What is often overlooked in Paul’s songs is just how brilliant his band were/are. Suggest you listen to his song Leaps and Bounds as this song really shows how brilliant his band were.
Leaps and Bounds - the Melbourne anthem!
Fantastic, I've been waiting for you to do some of Paul Kelly's better known song's so you can truly appreciate his songwriting and storytelling genius. Has collaborated with and written songs for so many other artists over the years. A true great of Australian music!!
Came to watch a Paul Kelly song and now I've got Crowded House stuck in my head... again! 🤣
He's a storyteller and everyone loves a good story, plus the music itself is pretty good.
This was the first song I learned to play on the guitar as a 12yo Aussie kid & it made me appreciate his music. It's only made more sense to me as the years have passed.
Paul is God & the ABSOLUTE sound of Australia ❣️
Paul Kelly is a person whose songs have helped to define a countries sense of itself. From little things big things grow was something which forced Australians to think about reconciliation with its indigenous people
You can’t explain why you love this song because it’s just the magic of PKs storytelling. The master storyteller. His brilliance is his unique ability to write from so many broken, sad, lonely, scared, comical, hopeful etc perspectives of imagined characters and they FEEL real in your heart - you can see them and see the story as he sings it. One of the most haunting examples is ‘Everything’s Turning to White’ - written from the perspective of a woman who has discovered something awful about her man. Unbelievably done - who knows how he does it.
And that song was based on a short story by… I forget now… darn. The Film Jindabyne was based on that story too.
You are correct about Paul being a lyrical genious. Bob Dylan was another
Paul Kelly reaches in and moves your soul! He’s genius that way. Love me some Paul Kelly💕 Great you are open to it all!
Paul kelly is a folk singer. He tells story like bob dylan & simon and Garfunkel
They got married early
Never had no money
Then when he got laid off
They really hit the skids
He started up his drinkin'
Then they started fightin'
He took it pretty badly
She took both the kid's
She said "I'm not standing by
To watch you slowly die
So watch me walkin'"
"Out the door"
"Out the door"
"Out the door"
She said, "Shove it Jack, I'm walking out your fuckin' door"
She went to her brother's
Got a little bar work
He went to the buttery
He stayed about a year
Then he wrote a letter
He said, "I wanna see ya"
She thought he sounded better
She sent him up the fare
He was riding through the cane
In the pouring rain
On Olympic
To her door
To her door
To her door
To her door
And his heart was singing like a lowdown guitar
He came in on a Sunday
Every muscle achin'
Walking in slow motion
Like he'd just been hit
Did they have a future?
Would he know his children?
Could he make a picture
And get them all to fit?
He was shaking in his seat
Riding through the streets
In a Silvertop
To her...
Shaking in his seat
Riding through the streets
In a Silvertop
To her door
To her door
To her door
To her door
Thank you for this 👍
A mate of mine is an entertainer, sorta one man band type, he usually does this song in one of his sets but he "de -composes the last chorus exit...
"To her door
She was on the floor
She was in the raw
She was begging for more"...
yeah, he's a bit of a degenerate but those of us who know him love him...
The reference to "The Buttery" is a drug and alcohol rehab clinic near Lismore NSW.
"Silver Top" is a taxi company in Sydney
Your with us. Everyone is drawn to Paul Kelly's story telling... it tells our stories. We all been there in one way or another. Everyone listens to a good story
Paul Kelly is a brilliant story teller and songwriter.
You really are doing the Alice in Wonderland thing by going down the rabbit hole. (Australian music being Wonderland.)
This guy, as reviewers go, just gets it. Feels the music 'n words - and that's a rare thing.
Paul is an indigenous man of the original people of this land
Paul Kelly transcends music genres.
For someone who isn’t familiar with the area, “the buttery” in the second verse is a residential rehab centre 40 minutes outside of Byron Bay in Northern New South Wales, Australia. At the time this song was written, there were a lot of sugar cane farms in the area, and the whole area was linked by a long train line that ran all the way down to Sydney, which was about 12 hours away by train.
It doesn't matter what genres of music you normally listen to he transcends them all
Paul Kelly is from my home city. I've seen him live many times. Love his story love his songwriting. He is a lyrical genius. Glad you love this song, me too, one of my all time favourites.
Talent is talent no matter the genre.
Paul Kelly can say sooo much in just one line..
Waiting for someone to request from little things, big things grow.
Good music is good music, it has the ability to touch us.
this is one of those songs that genuinely cuts onions.
This song gets me every time! It’s the emotional connect, he conveys so much but so simply.
PAUL IS A STORY TELLER, AMEN
Saw Paul Kelly and the Bull sisters play 2 weeks ago. 👌🏼
A huge hit at the time and still much loved 😍
Australia's bard... consummate storyteller. Everyone feels an authentic story in their bones... that's his secret weapon :)
Such an incredible song, can't describe the feelings Paul Kelly somehow makes you feel.
Joelistics - Out Of The Blue is this exact story but aussie hip hop. It's amazing
The magic of Paul Kelly.
I can’t believe this song has not been reacted to earlier.
Great Australian Classic!
great song by one of our great Australian artists. great review.
Played a Paul Kelly song at my Mum’s funeral- Meet me in the middle of the air.
Oh man, watching a few of your PK reactions and Missy Higgins reactions... I would LOVE to see you react to Missy's live cover of If I Could Start Today Again. The beauty of her voice with his songwriting is pure magic.
Folk music is human stories and all humans feel those words no matter your usual tastes. that said i saw him live a few times and just love him and his sound even though its not my usual music he sounds exactly the same live.
I just love that you get Paul Kelly and Crowded House
Just saw him live a couple of weeks ago, such a story teller.
brushing the canvas with exceptionally crafted words - and the stories unfold
Back in the days
The 80's was away of life
In Australia & Land of hope
❤️🌏❤️🌍❤️🌎🙏😇👍🇭🇲🤠🙏😇👍🇭🇲
From memory on Olympic is a bus and a silvertop is a taxi. I still have the original tape cassette of Paul Kelly and the Coloured Girls too. :)
Paul legendary story teller
Another singalong in any Aussie pub🇦🇺👌❤️
Your reactions to Aussie songs are fantastic. A well-travelled ear 🙂
I'm a high school teacher, and Paul Kelly's lyrics were actually on our final year high school curriculum for a few years in Victoria (one of our states), thought you might find it interesting. Just found your videos loving 'em
I haven't read all the comments but the guy who plays the father in the clip to this song is the guy who plays Johnny from the first mad max film
Tommy the GOAT … that’s so 😎 you guys recognise this Icon of Australia 🇦🇺
Your Aussie at heart mate, 🇦🇺👍🇦🇺
I have always loved music and to me it seems you do too , an old favorite this one .
One of his best ✨
You are spot on about Paul. His songwriting is just brilliant, very simple but so relatable and you can't help but be drawn into the story he is telling. I hate to sound like a broken record but he is another Australian artist with a massive discography of great songs who has been around since the early 80s. Keep checking out his work because if you are enjoying what you've listened to so far, you will be blown away by the end. Loving your channel and your insights.
Agree. There's plenty more Paul Kelly songs to enjoy. I could listen to him all day.
Paul Kelly sings songs we all can sing
Easy to explain, Has SOUL.
Hav seen him live a few times wonderful
Loved this song, it is very distinctly Australian, so many good bands of that time with their own uniqueness and flavour, something that seems to be lacking with a lot of music we have today.
I think a lot of people are drawn to his music because it’s so relatable
I have had the pleasure of seeing Paul Kelly live for many years .....always gives 100 per cent ! Master storyteller !
He is a singer of tales
I can’t listen to the amazing Paul Kelly especially this song, without tearing up.. so succinct, cuts to the heart of the human condition. Stunning!!! Aussie Bob Dylan!!!
its a case of opposites attract so thats why you love Paul Kellys music n lyrics ... its as simple as that
The man is a bloody genius! Anybody that can write an interesting song about cricket has to be (His song Bradman)
He’s our best storyteller
Translation for non-Australians...
The Buttery - rehab
Olympic - Bus (Aussie Greyhound)
Silvertop - Taxi company
I'm pretty sure I agree with everything you said about him. He's been a favourite of mine since I was a kid.
