Not sure if anyone gives a damn but if you are bored like me during the covid times then you can watch all of the latest series on Instaflixxer. Have been watching with my girlfriend during the lockdown =)
Thats literally why i just watched the video, i was watching a YT interview with a funeral directorx and a question was about funeral songs. This ones on my list!
This is a song of regret. I play it in 3:4 on a ukulele and it's works beautifully. Totally changes the feel, but it's much more in keeping with the lyrics.
Today played at my Uncle's funeral, Paul Kelly was always his favourite artist. Him and his old Jack Russel he bailed out of the pound every week dancing to this with him in his arms around the lounge, back when he had his white curly mullet. His dog passed on, but the memories for him sure didn't. He'd always head down to the beach for fishing, Paul Kelly blasting from his phone whenever you called. This song will always be close to me in my heart. Not to mention his name was also Paul, pretty ironic. Thank you for being so kind to me, I wish I could have gotten to know you better. Rest easy.
Was born in 79 and never really thought much about the 80's (being a kid and all) but now at 44......well the nostalgia I get from 80s music and movies is unbeatable. It all must have soaked in because it's rare I hear a track or see a movie that I dont recall from that period, and I gotta say......its pretty hard to beat a lot of them.
I remember having Young Einstien on VHS when I was about 8 years old and always loved this song. had no idea where the tape went but never forgot this song (way before the internet so no way to find it)I looked for it for years and never found it but never forgot the melody. fast forward 30 years my friend said hey were gonna go see this guy Paul Kelly play in Hollywood. when this song started playing I was like HOLY SHIT ! ITS THE SONG !!!!!
It’s a phenomenal feeling that kids under 30 will never know. I had the same experience with Kate Bush’s ‘Running Up That Hill’ and must have waited 15 years with that melody still perfectly intact in my memory until around 2005 when I caught the last minute of it on a random radio station switch, and remember using the dial-up version of Shazam (#2580) to find out the song. Trying to sing parts of it to friends in the hope that they’d recognise it failed miserably. I tried playing it on the piano to my mum, who claimed she had no idea what song it was. The irony being that she was a massive fan of The Bush and had the album in our house since it’s release. ‘‘Twas under my nose all those years and I never knew.
Paul Kelly is an absolute legend of Australia… I’ll be pushing for a crows theme song. Reckon this bloke was first 11 and first 18 at Rostrevor, maybe Dux as well. His music is remarkable and has helped shaped our country.❤
What a tune! One of the greatest, pure 80’s cool music, love it, proper musicians doing there thing! Godspeed to all the appreciators of this one! People who know about good music💫💫💫
Rest in peace Kirstie Alley. Much love and admiration and it was so fun working with you on Kirstie TV show in 2013. Look who’s talking you and Travolta this song!
I am a Yank . My brother introduced me to them. As he said at the time “ Don’t know why they aren’t bigger . “ They are just as good Songwriters as REM “
Bigger than you realise, Paul Kelly has been around for many years.. Springsteen likes them I've heard him say it.. Do yourself a favour and get the Comedy album. I'm an Aussie i love Paul Kelly, seen him live a few times over the years amazing band. Better than REM. Dumb things is one of my favourite songs from him..
@@johndelaney2957 I had 2 LPs by them . One starts out with “ This is the last train “. Forgive me I am aging . Yes I have heard the song “Dumb Things”. In a addition to great songs Paul Kelly and the Messengers also have superb instrumentation
God fucking bless you PK. I have made so many mistakes this year but listening to you makes it feel like it will be okay and life goes on. Thank you mate xo
🎵 LYRICS 🔃 Welcome, strangers, to the show I'm the one who should be lying low Saw the knives out, turned my back Heard the train coming, stayed out on the track In the middle, in the middle, in the middle of a dream I lost my shirt, I pawned my rings I've done all the dumb things Caught the fever, heard the tune Thought I loved her, hung my heart on the moon Started howling, made no sense Thought my friends would rush to my defence In the middle, in the middle, in the middle of a dream I lost my shirt, I pawned my rings I've done all the dumb things Yeah, I threw my hat into the ring I've done all the dumb things And I get all your good advice It never stops me from going through these things twice I see the knives out, I turn my back I hear the train coming, I stay right on that track In the middle, in the middle, in the middle of a dream I lost my shirt, I pawned my rings I've done all the dumb things I melted wax to fix my wings I've done all the dumb things Yeah, I threw my hat into the ring I've done all the dumb things I thought that I just had to sing I've done all the dumb things
I spent years trying to figure out what this song was because it got played in the cafe on neighbours in the 80’s and it got stuck in my brain. I knew the chorus tune but didn’t know the words
My lady and i saw that it was on Netflix... We chilled and binge watched the fuck out of the show!.!!.!!!. 😊 Ugh.... I've never gotten to see Nick Cave 😢

Hi. Julie. Nice absolutely a very nice song. How are you doing?
I'm all for that!
When it’s still being played and sung loud and proud, you know it’s a great Aussie Classic 👌🏾💯🇦🇺
I am Canadian ... always loved Paul Kelly .... this is one of my favs
Great song, great man wrote it.
@@jjbrown6794 Amen to that

your uncle was probably trying to get out of his coffin so he could turn this garbage shit toilet music off
Mr. Kelly is a national treasure!

We were born in a great time, our gen is the last of the best
This is easily one of the best songs ever written, has been a favourite of mine since the '80s.
The groove is killer. Keep on rockin'!
I love this song. I listen to it everyday.
Almost word for word what I came here to say. I love Paul and band so much.
Dumb things, that's called life. So beautiful in Australia, thank you Paul Kelly
One of the greatest songwriters ever ! Still going strong in 2022 !!
Saw him live last night. And yes he sung this one! Yay!
Paul Kelly, as a song writer must be the most underated Australian song writer ever.
BEST LINE.I melted wax to fix my wings. gets me every time. Chris. Wilson on harp. Lived in the next street to me.
Look who’s talking ❤️ now I’m in love with this song
Brilliant! Remember hearing this as a teenager and I am now 57. Still holds up and is just plain...Brilliant!
One of our best and greatest song composers ...drum roll... Paul Kelly.
in a punchy cry from the heart, kelly regrets just about everything.
I discovered this song in college and had to rush out and buy the cassette tape. It's still great music.
alrighty unc
I found this song on the movie Young Einstein went out and bought the sound track of the movie great music 🙋♀️
Know all the words, sing it loud and proud!
"Thought my friends would rush to my defence"
Been there
Hang me out to dry
Too true
im there right now. some of us are on our own.....maybe all of us
Aint enough loyalty left I reckon.
Yep. But then people I didn't know were my real friends stepped up. Much fewer than didn't, but you find out who's real and who isn't. That's a gift.
Love the harmonica...and the rest
“Packed to the rafters” brought me here, love the song, the show, and Australia looks Amazing!
This song..
All of it...
My past, and many of us alike. 🇦🇺
RIP Chris Wilson - love the harmonica riffs.
One of most infectious songs I ever heard.
Awesome song

Probably the best Ever Harp/Harmonica Aussie Song. Go Paul xxx

I can't help myself picturing Yahoo Serious whenever I listen to this song!
I'm a Kiwi, and I love this song
When you rush a nine months pregnant women on the backseat of a runaway yellow cab inside crowded NYC this is definitely the song to play. Loud.
Yup. That's where I heard it as well.
"I can't move the cars, y'know?"
“Hey why don’t u pull over til the ‘ludes wear off!” -Travolta RIP sweetest Kirstie!

Unique voice, brilliant songwriter/ story teller. Seriously underrated.
I've loved this song for years. It warms my heart to see a video for it on YT.
This song covered the cab ride in "look who's talking "
@@johnsiegfried9162 And a scene in "Young Einstein" and various other films from the time period. It was quite popular.
This song is brilliant. Cant wait to see Paul Kelly live later this week.
It’s absolutely nice and I love it. How are you doing. Hope you are fine and staying safe out there.
What an Amazing Song !
How could I not be on this song in 2024 1 of the Greatest from the Land DOWN UNDER

🎵 LYRICS 🔃
Welcome, strangers, to the show
I'm the one who should be lying low
Saw the knives out, turned my back
Heard the train coming, stayed out on the track
In the middle, in the middle, in the middle of a dream
I lost my shirt, I pawned my rings
I've done all the dumb things
Caught the fever, heard the tune
Thought I loved her, hung my heart on the moon
Started howling, made no sense
Thought my friends would rush to my defence
In the middle, in the middle, in the middle of a dream
I lost my shirt, I pawned my rings
I've done all the dumb things
Yeah, I threw my hat into the ring
I've done all the dumb things
And I get all your good advice
It never stops me from going through these things twice
I see the knives out, I turn my back
I hear the train coming, I stay right on that track
In the middle, in the middle, in the middle of a dream
I lost my shirt, I pawned my rings
I've done all the dumb things
I melted wax to fix my wings
I've done all the dumb things
Yeah, I threw my hat into the ring
I've done all the dumb things
I thought that I just had to sing
I've done all the dumb things
Start of the song is madness
Gurner Madness!
This song was also on heavy rotation at The Bayside Diner in Home @ Away around 1989/1990.
My old drinkin song ,ahhh the memories
PK should be our next PL
When I last visited Australia, I took a taxi in Sydney and this was on the radio. Then they had a rugby league quiz. I'd arrived!
I first heard this in the movie Look who's talking.
What an icon. God I miss Adelaide.
This is the kind of song that u think u don’t know until u listen to it
"i melted wax to fix my wings" might be the greatest lyric ever written 😁✌️

Sent song to Twitter to cheer up actor

This song will go down in history as one of the greatest ever.
RIP Chris... that time I met you briefly at Bluesfest was fucking awesome mate, thank you.
