Midnight Oil
Registrace 12. 03. 2006
Midnight Oil are more than just a rock ‘n’ roll band. Since forming on Sydney’s northern beaches in the punk era, this singular band has always both reflected and shaped the world around them. Defiant and uncompromising they have created some of Australia’s greatest rock anthems. After a 15 year hiatus, Midnight Oil reformed in 2017 for an unforgettable world tour involving 77 gigs in 16 countries. 2020 saw their collaborative mini-album ‘The Makarrata Project’ debut at #1 on the same weekend that long time bass player Bones Hillman sadly passed away. Recently the Oils announced that 2022 will see a New Album and Final Tour both aptly called “Resist”. The provocative lead single, “Rising Seas”, calls for “serious urgency” in addressing the climate crisis. While “Resist” will be the band’s last concert tour, the members remain open to recording new music in future and they will continue to support causes in which they believe.

‘We Resist’
(Written by Jim Moginie)
Putting flowers into guns
This is not the summer of love
Throwing tea into the sea
Indigenous apology
Only if
We resist
It’s a storm without end
Where’s the lighthouse? where’s a friend
Come to think
It can’t last
Only if
We resist
Free market and labour rights
Women’s vote and hunger strikes
War is over in times square
Please don’t say that nobody cares
Standing up to those who sell fear
With a polite insistence to hear
Only if
We resist
It’s a storm without end
Where’s the lighthouse? where’s a friend
Come to think
It can’t last
Only if
We resist

The Hillmans: A Tribute To Bones

It’s 12 months today since Bones Hillman exited the stage ... and what better way to commemorate his singular memory than with a new bittersweet song featuring some of his many friends. "One Voice” can be downloaded right now for free here www.midnightoil.com/one-voice-for-bones/ The initial inspiration came to Midnight Oil’s Rob Hirst soon after Bones’ passing. Rob recorded the song live at Ji...

Still made me tear up in 2024 when Pete joins in at the end.
❤😢Tribute to Bones Hillman ,Wayne Stevens,born May 7th 1958 ,Auckland,NEW ZEZLAND,deceased November 7th 2020😢MIDNIGHT OIL'S BASSIST❤❤❤
you are doing the right thing. We have to fight everyday for good. Never surrender.
Keep singing and talking for First Nations. It may take a generation but true justice will prevail. I married into the NC Cherokee Nation. Your message is spreading.
She's very pretty, with a nice genuine smile.
God bless you Bones rest in peace now you can do anything you want your Soul is at the source and you re all free .. we miss you
Corporations want you to vote yes ...red flag i would of thought..Corporations dont care about you or me or aboriginal people..wake up vote NO
Vote YES
Vote NO ... can't enshrine racism into our constitution..that's going backwards sorry...we're all equal and besides this is a money and power grab ..wake up
NO TO THE VOICE NO TO APARTHEID Makarrata is the spearing of a wrongdoer in the thigh to prevent him from hunting and to make him walk with a limp. Truth telling is only one sided and is not the truth at all
Can we make this song the Anthem of the "Yes" campaign??? It could turn the tide and save Australia! Please!
Vote NO ... this will destroy Australia you mean ...
Can we make this song the Anthem of the "Yes" campaign??? It could turn the tide and save Australia! Please!
THE BEST
Thank you for your legacy, rest in peace ☮️
Beautiful song beautifully sung, of the usual very high Oil's standard. Bones would love it, the whole thing, not just the end. The transition into Counting the Beat is perfect and adds hugely to what is already a gorgeous song and tribute.
Bravo ❤
I am your fan from Kyiv (Ukraine) since '87 when I first heard the album "Diesel & Dust", I turn to Peter Garrett write a "strong" composition about the horror of war brought by ruZZia to Ukraine... Thank you
<3
Miss Ya Bones.😔🙏🏻
Grande, grande Bones deixou saudade...viva ao rock
Thought: protect people in their territories, then unite trade unions of all sort, because workers are the foundation of the world. I think all Spirits would agree : liberate the body and the mind can be and do. Freedom & justice is SINGING, TALKING, UNITE.
👍🙂
Truth telling can be scary to most people. I totally enjoyed this video.🥰
The truth is this will cost you a lot of tax to keep a few crooks rich ..albo and co are a bunch of snakes ...Aboriginals in poor communities won't benefit at all..the money is already getting ripped off ..you think it will change with the voice?? Bwahahaha yer sure
Thank you for sharing. A voice for Indigenous peoples in the constitution is Important. I've been a fan of Midnight Oil since the 80's. 🥰
Thank you for sharing.🥰
🥰
Thank you for sharing, this video is close to my heart.🥰
So powerful and so moving, with simple but so well chosen words! I A support from the Oils so needed for the Aboriginal people and Nation, that I always loved! In Europe, the Oils were known around their peak, like I guess in many places.. but now I realize they're so much than some of their hits! they're so important for 'Gadigal land' and for the whole world! Especially in the more and more troubled times we're entering.. They're real punks forever, and much more! And now with the 'Resist' album about the environmental crisis.. Another proof that's it's not only about music is the enduring engagement of the band, and especially Peter Garrett, who entered even the government! I'm buying your albums guys, and hope the world re-discovers you as well! Long life!
C'est de la balle 👍👍👍🥰
Fabulous. A real anthem live.
What a great song.and band. MO is the besst.
"Singing a song about you without you." 💔
Png another example of corporate greed on Australia's door step
Well...history teacher; Mr. Garrett
Sadness going to be missed
Great Band! 🎶🤙
Awesome - every day supplement
No offense I can't stand her . That Jessica woman
RIP Bones
Bravo ! Merci je vous aime !
🖤🇩🇪Greatings from the german Oilers!
I love them😍😍😍
Brilliant
And so I think I will burst into tears every time I hear him sing that incredibly pure " country wide" backing / lead vocal in One Country. Grinners are Winners in this hot southern land, he kept it up. Beautiful man, who had a hard start, then lived his dreams. Perfect pop song with The Swingers, then perfect rock band career. Laconic, cheeky tough guy. Forever here now, always heard.
Well said. As a white Australian, i support you and respect you.
😥💕👌💪. Brilliant! MO Jess and Tasman😲💕. I don't do rap, but seriously, Tasman could easily get me to come over the other side 😍. ❤💛🖤
Such a nice g it. Met him at the indy show years back. A bucket list show for me
❤️
Love this rendition - love Midnight Oil!
