In my opinion, arguably the most emotionally touching and well crafted Aussie song we’ve ever been gifted. If not the one, one of the top ones. Often leaves me in tears.
I didn't even know they were Australian . This song popped into my my mind after a dream recently and I couldn't believe that I'd forgotten it after all these years . Beautiful .
Nice comment. I meet a young lady from Melbourne on yahoo whatever it was called. Crossed an ocean to meet her. She gave me this memory. N stayed in a placed Phillip Island 🙂
i was working on morning shift for security at St Kilda Acland st, sometime in 1999, finished 3pm & waiting the Tram to take me to the city, long story short I heard two people one with the guitar and the lady singing this song sitting on close to me but on top, then I started listening, the tram left it was Sunday and had to wait for next one about another half an hour it worth it I never forget.
Australia was so different back then. I remember migrating from NZ in 1997 listening to this in back of old man's falcon thinking what a beautiful country
This song reminds me of my husband I lost to drugs. I lost the fight against his demons and his mother. I will never understand why he chose the lifestyle he has. I still love him when I’m sleeping. He comes to me in my dreams. I wish I could forget about him. Bitter sweet.
No offence, but you're better off without a drug addict. He may have been a good person, but drugs will completely obliterate a person, and addicts would quite often harm those closest to them for their next "fix"
It can be so hard to let go, but a step in the right direction is knowing that it’s not your fault. Believing it isn’t enough, you must know it. You’re obviously a good soul, and I wish you the very best on your path to recovery ❤
In 1998, I can remember driving away from a toxic relationship in a beautifully idyllic tourist town in which I had moved for a few years. I was crying, sobbing and thinking about staying but I knew what I had just been through was really unhealthy. I can remember crying with this song playing. It brings me right back to that feeling of a new start ❤🎉
This song is an absolute marvel. The songwriting and adoring vocals are brilliant. I always felt this song was underrated but I just looked it up, it was nominated for Best Single at the 97 ARIA'S, but snagged by Truely Madly Deeply (predictably). It did collect Song of the Year at the APRA's though. Incredible that it hasn't been covered by an international superstar yet
I can't get this song out of my head this week. I was hoping by playing it, it would finally get out of my head... only now, I'm playing it on repeat 😂🎶
Saw Abby Saturday night and her voice comes from another planet! Just an amazing babe!!! I told her I used to sing this song to my 3 babies to sleep 😍 I just said Thanks for the great song 🤠🙏
This song brought me to tears last night when Abby sung it so beautifully at the Mushroom 50th Anniversary concert....you are both beautiful and blessed Abby, touched by an angel😢 and the guitar accompaniment was beautifully played too....I will never forget you Baby form the day you bought that dress you wore at the little dress shop on Glenferrie Rd til now, a true blue Aussie beauty oozing talent and appeal...love from a friend and admirer...Mick
This so reminds me of camping trips, sitting around a fire then someone pulling a guitar out and announcing it was time for a few tunes.........good times........
Don't be confused by my apparent lack of ceremony, My mind is clear I may be low or miles high off in the distance, I want you near I love you, even when I'm sleeping When I close my eyes,you're everywhere. And if they take me flying on the magic carpet, See me wave If our communication fails I'll reconnect it, I want to rave I love you, even when I'm sleeping When I close my eyes, you're everywhere No matter where the road is leading us remember, don't be afraid We have a continent that sometimes comes between us, that's ok I love you, even when I'm sleeping When I close my eyes, you're everywhere❤❤❤
This song I woke up with stuck in my head the first two mornings after my fur child died I hadn’t heard it in years… I’m certain she sent it to me as we were soulmates and I took her everywhere I know it’s her contacting me By the lyrics Beautiful but gut wrenching song
I always wanted this for a wedding song but I just couldn't get a copy of it at the time so I played it for our 10th anniversary and everyone was so moved

I agree….. every now and then someone crafts a melody that truly channels the Beatles…. and that’s a complement
What about "Greg, the stop sign!" ?
Agree

It was the best. Its very alarming what our country has become today.
Still is mate, just have to look harder for it
@@benbrown007 i live in canberra mate so that says it all. Im about to go for a trip any suggestions mate?
hell yeH australia is nothing of what it was even 10 years ago. aus used to have a very humble and defined culture that is gone
Now it's a tyrannical hellhole
This song deserves far more accolades than being buried in the annuals .what a magical magnificent voice absolutely stunning.

@@tysonprentner740 Wendy Matthews is another one. She absolutely killed it back in the 90s
Today mate!! This fine morning in Melbourne it happened again for me ❤ Happy aye!
I was going to sing and play this on guitar at My Dads Funeral..But I was to upset..I played it By his grave a few months later.💙
Sorry for ur loss. A beautiful song

This band deserved to go far. Brilliant
Such a beautiful under rated song 🎵 ❤
Highly underrated song
Voice of an angel...
Discovered this beautiful song while watching Brokedown Palace. The lyrics mean a lot to me as I'm sure they mean a lot to many people.
Great voice!!!
So hard to believe when she performed solo, on The Voice a few years ago....NO CHAIRS TURNED!
I know right? Do the judges want bland mediocre voices instead?
That's crazy she is so so talented 🎉
Great band in its day. Keep it coming Abby. You're so under-rated!
I think she tried out on the Voice and no one turned. Doesn't make sense..
The nostalgia… missed the good old days
Such a beautiful song,I play it in my art studio every night 3 times over at least
Gerry I think you are exager rating ONCE a week ,year
I've loved this song since I heard it in the movie "BROKEDOWN PALACE" I think it's so beautiful ❤❤
One of my all time fav's, brings back so many memories! 'When I close my eyes you're everywhere' ... will I EVER get over you? ;(
I was listening, this great song on the radio today, walking to work, and I'm here now, great song!!
this song among other 90s songs pop up in my head every other day ughhhh so good
Sooo beautiful
I love this song! I don’t feel like it gets enough credit!
Beautiful all time aussie song, totally underrated jem to discover!
This song will be with me until I die .
So. Beautiful🙏 ❤
This is everything x

Here again 🥰
Lovely Song
This song I woke up with stuck in my head the first two mornings after my fur child died
I hadn’t heard it in years…
I’m certain she sent it to me as we were soulmates and I took her everywhere
I know it’s her contacting me
By the lyrics
Beautiful but gut wrenching song
