      The song was originally about the Gadigal tribes that were moved off their ancestral lands so the Australian government could test nuclear weapons.

      Hello Jillian my first concert in Aus was ACDC when i was 8 or 9. It cost 25cents back in 1973 with Little River Band as the headliner at our local library....lol.... Seen Midnight Oil a few times but he got waaaay too political at his concerts....lol...

    To clarify for Americans, because this song is from a country that uses a different temperature scale, 45 degrees celsius is well above human body temperature and genuinely unpleasant to walk around in.
