    • @artvandelay8090
      @artvandelay8090 5 месяцев назад +3

      Rick Springfield screwed up the chord progressions every time the song transitioned from the choruses to the verse. It wasn't quite as obvious every time. The time where Colin was playing the sax line over that progression, Rick Springfield really screwed it up royally and it was blatantly obvious even to non-musicians. But musicians know that Springfield screwed up that progression all 4 times in that song. He simply didn't know the chords there and he was faking it - never got it right. It wasn't Colin Hay's mistake.

    Just say him last night in Tysons, Virginia. Great show. Music was great, but his jokes and constant swearing were the best part. He has such a self aware personality. He mentioned liking that no one recognizes him anymore, except when he's at CVS and one of his songs plays over the speaker, making him scream out to everyone around him that he wrote it, causing a scene.

    I love this song, this album, this artist. The first Men at Work album was a gem. It was the last piece of music which I shared with my late brother. We were working on our respective car stereos, and I played a bit as a test. He went straight out and bought the album on cassette (it was 1985). He passed a few years later at 44. In our adolescence during the 60s, we listened to Top-40 music avidly and discussed all the new releases.
    I just realized this was the last bit of music we really bonded over. Eyes leaking.....

    Colin Hay has got the most beautiful selection of Maton acoustic guitars I have ever seen. This guitar he's holding is at least the 3rd top notch custom built Maton guitar I've seen him play. I have not seen a more beautiful guitar, which is quite appropriate considering the beauty of his music/songs.

    I can't get to sleep
    I think about the implication
    Of diving in too deep
    And possibly the complications
    Especially at night
    I worry over situations
    I know will be alright
    Perhaps it's just imagination
    Day after day it reappears
    Night after night my heartbeat shows the fear
    Ghosts appear and fade away
    Alone between the sheets
    Only brings exasperation
    It's time to walk the streets
    Smell the desperation
    At least there's pretty lights
    And though there's little variatios
    It nullifies the night
    From overkill
    Day after day it reappears
    Night after night my heartbeat, shows the fear
    Ghosts appear and fade away
    Come back another day
    I can't get to sleep
    I think about the implications
    Of diving in too deep
    And possibly the complications
    Especially at night
    I worry over situations that
    I know will be alright
    It's just overkill
    Day after day it reappears
    Night after night my heartbeat shows the fear
    Ghosts appear and fade away
    Ghosts appear and fade away
    Ghosts appear and fade away

    That is a singer with completely relaxed and natural breath control.. Sings from a place of effortless strength.. I know this is a stretch to some, but another great singer with that effortless singing from the core ease is Donny Hathaway.. All the greatest singers that can sing as gorgeously from pianissimo to fortissimo have it. Karen Carpenter is another. Just a mesmerizing voice.. And I think in a way he sounds more compelling now, with an acoustic, than the 80's produced version of this song...
