Kev Carmody is the real deal. This is one of the greatest Australian ballads written. It has the authenticity that can only come from someone who has walked the walk. I believe Kev is our greatest songwriter ever and this song never fails to move me.
This would have to be the best mergence of Australian musical talent I've ever experienced. Thanks for sharing an awesome rendition of Kev Carmody's masterpiece.
umm... beautiful wonderful, glen richards, first time I've seen you, really great. Paul Kelly, you just get in my heart every time, straight in there. Some dam beautiful fiddle there. Who is the fiddle player? bloody wonderful. Amazing song.
Glen, Paul and Missy totally nails this brilliant song. But what a song, simplest of tunes, the content is a life... Thank you!!! I noticed that a lot of Augie March's songs are in waltz timing, as is this song :-)

I’m so obsessed with this song.
I can't believe I have only just discovered this song. It's beautiful, the perfect Australian love song.
Still can’t sing it without crying. The original version obviously. Best Australian song of all time.
Pure poetry - what a great singer/songwriter/storyteller Kev Carmody is and yes this song touches my soul each time I hear it.
Reminds me of how hard my old people had it and the strength they had it gives me strength hearing this song 🤙🏽

Greatest song ever - not just Australian!
This song
Every time that I get lost and forget what it is I love about music, I come back to this song.
How come Kev is so unkown ... one of the greatest artists we'll ever have
Superb - some of us have known women such as these (and we're alive because of them). Thanks Kev.
This is such a beautiful song, wonderfully written...
Glen does it justice... I'd been looking for this for ages too...
This performance of this song is one of the most beautiful things I’ve ever heard.
Missy absolutely nailed it. I bloody love this song.
