- Enjoyed singing my party piece at the Melbourne Cup. Took a punt, but did not back a winner. Looking forward to my upcoming tour of this great land.

#ColinHay #DownUnder #MenAtWork - Hudba
Still hits the notes.... the man is amazing!!!!
Oh, yeah
the thing is the original song has a lower key than his live version
@@jamirimaj6880 totally wrong mate. Have a listen to the original album version... it's in Bm and so is this version.
Yea mate he's doin' it at a high note for his age, awesome. I couldn't it myself at this age and reduced a semi-tone.
This gave me chills 😎
I love the Aussies
Nathing like the land down under 🍻
The world needs more Colin Hay!
Yes.
Give it rest Hay
Listen to the best days of my life very sad but shows is versitality brilliant musician loved them since 1983.
I think so too
The world needs more Colin Hay! and less trudeau
I'll never forget the year 1983. Australia wins the America's cup and it was at the same time this song was HUGE. The team adopted it as their theme song. What a year!
Yes it was magical wasn't it.
So u watches the untold episode too😂
Yeah mate i was 17 at college , great days indeed ..... no phones , no woke bullshit . Rock on.
Far Out hearing that. When I first heard it, it immediately took my mind's visions to Australia and the Mystery and Beauty of the Land and people down there. I could see the Aborigine tribes, flying Boomerangs, leaping Kangaroos, and Outback people. It was the feeling that the music evoked in me.
First term of undergrad. Never heard of Vegemite before that.
Who can it be now?
Ladies and Gentlemen, Please Rise for Australia's National Anthem.
what a voice....!! still spectacular...after all these years.
That power in his voice is like the wind
Amazing!!!!
Você por aqui Man? Kkkk
yee
Ao Fábio Lima aí kk
MEN AT WORK 80S FOREVER
'83 what a blast - Australia wins the America Cup to the sound of Men at Work. I don't want to sound like an old man but the music, the vibe, life seemed alot more free, a lot less judgemental and a lot more carefree. Take us back to those days with this classic by Colin - the funniest man I've ever heard in a pub behind a microphone
People used to care about principles based in "personal sovereignty", meaning their ability to live life by the rules without the centralized control of government interfering in everyday individual's lives.
Now a days it's a global hivemind principle called "world goodwill", it's occult in it's nature and bad for the outlook of independents and individuals. At least, I think that's what has changed, I'd be happy if someone could tell me differently.
Take care!
I was a teen in the 80s. I, and other friends from that era, also feel that society was much less judgmental and free. We were free to speak our minds without fear of being cancelled or shouted down. I remember being carefree, playing outside 'til after dark, and watching actual music videos on MTV. Loved the 80s, still do. I'm honestly grieving what we lost.
Venceu por que não pegou o Brasil.
I'm Italian but this song makes me want to leave my beautiful country and live in Australia. I'm kinda arachnophobic lmao
Take me back there today
Not even the technical glitches can hinder Colin's sheer talent- much love from the UK
Colin Hay a true legend.👍🙂We love Colin here in the USA 🇺🇸
He's STILL got it!!❤
Most Americans agree that Australia kicks ass! I personally love you people!
This has to be the best song ever Written, Handsdown.
They didn’t give him the ovation he deserves. Guy is ridiculously talented.
Colin Hay = One of the best voices EVER!!! (So unique!!)
Colin Hay and John Fogerty. Two of the most unique voices ever.
Scotland maybe a small country where I live but we gave the World so many exports and Colin Hay is one of them. He sounds absolutely amazing.
Sorry, I didn't know he is a Scot. He gives Rod the Mod a run for the money in the unique voice sing-off of your fair land. As a Canadian, I know many of our talented performers are presumed to be Yanks.😂
One of the best debut albums of all time! Colin still rocks!
I remember doing Karaoke with my friend Donard to this song he bailed half way through and some Asian guy I never met named Sunny took over and we crushed the high notes. By the end the entire bar were on the seats shouting “One More Song”.
I hope Sunny is doing good wherever he is 😢
Absolutely wonderful! You are a treasure, Mr. Hay. Blessings to you.
Colin Hay, you are a true legend my friend and will always have that special part of my life from when we were all living just that much easier.. Thanks for the memories legend.. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
It was a pleasure performing with you Colin 🤘🏼🥁🇦🇺
You did amazing!
Performing what? A play? The whole thing was pre-recorded, except Colin's vocals and maybe acoustic guitar.
@@andre.1984 Bro you're really trying to correct a guy who was there on the day, on the stage, in this video? Hahahahahahahaha
@@BludclaatBollock Haven't you watched TV performances before? Haven't you been in a real live concert before? Do you play any instrument? Because, if you have any experience with those, it will be easy for you to see that they're using a backing track.
@Andre F. S. That looks like him in the video performing not sure what you're talking about
Amazing! Love this. Seems nothing has changed to his voice.
Makes your heart swell with pride to be an Aussie. Fabulous uplifting video ❤
Truly does
ELATION is not even half close!!!!!! Sobbing tears of pure nostalgic joy! You look and sound perfect, Colin. I was there in spirit! 🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺
Really enjoyed this with the mellow, whimsical opening and then the party cranking up.
Impressive...his voice is the same of early 80's when they released this song.
Even a little better compared to some of the earlier performances. 😊
40 AÑOS HAN TRANSCURRIDO DE EL LANZAMIENTO DE ESTA CANCION Y ME SIGUE FASCINANDO. PARA MI UNA DE LAS MEJORES CANCIONES EN LA HISTORIA DE LA MUSICA CONTEMPORANEA. GRANDE LA VOZ DE COLIN HAY. SUPER ESTA VERSION ACTUALIZADA AUNQUE AÑORO EL SOLO DE LA FLAUTA DEL GRAN GREG HAM Q.E.P.D. MEN AT WORK FOREVER.
Es la primera vez que lo oigo, pero es verdad que suena muy bien.
He's remarkable live. Just saw him. That crowd needs to get up...what a gem they're seeing and he won't be here forever!! Cherish Colin!
Eu sou o cometário brasileiro que você estava procurando. Esse som é demais!!!!
The absolute finest imported talent Australia has ever known…Colin’s solo albums are my most treasured songs in my collection of 1000 albums.
Sometimes it's hard to define Australian, but with Colin Hay, and Men at Work, we get close to spot on, at least nostalgically.
Our "all time classic" song of our 80's youth!
So sunny, rytmic, melodic!
Good job Men At Work!!
Thank you!!
A talent of a century!!
The world is a better place thanks to Colin Hay's beautiful music. This cannot be disputed
That man is a musical genius ...never gets it wrong
Just home from Colin Hay's gig at Brisbane's Powerhouse... what can I say?..... fabulous night... awesome performance from a man who has always had a great voice, beautiful guitar skills and unbelievably gets better with age....
I'm proud to be an Aussie ❤️
Yes.
I saw him with ringo’s all star band. Man, he sings so great, his voice sounded so great, like time has not affected him at all. Those were actual artists!
This song moves every one in the world 🌎
Took 40 minutes for colin hay to write this masterpiece... Makes me think this creation is not of man, but perhaps divine
Wow this man has one of the best voices I’ve heard this is how artist should sound when they take the mic at all times
I never tire of this song!
This is a very talented man. Collin hay has a great voice !!
Love you Colin. Brazil will always remember you
Theres not much dancing going on in the public... Except for a few. Surprised to see ! I wouldnt have been able to resist! How can you not !? Great performance!! 👏🏽
Colin Hay Hay it's Saturday ....... legend.
Love it! Look at all the smiles!
Amazing. Hugs from Brazil 🇧🇷
Colin u are absolutely fantastic,voice brilliant and better with ageing
Colin Hay Forever, what a musician entertainer the nicest guy on the planet,
No hay palabras para describir esto .. saludos desde Lima-Perú 🇵🇪
From the other Down Under side of the world. THANK YOU!!!! Greetings MY MATE
Beautiful!
Thanks for the smiles and memories, from a a land down under, France
Most people who love this song probably don't even realise he's put out 15 albums since Men At Work split up. All of them are brilliant and worth a listen.
One of the best songs from the 1980s. This version is just as great!
Looking and sounding better than ever Colin.
That's the most fun I've had listening to that song since I was 15!! 😃
He still kicking it!!
The spirit makes us take back to the 80s(even though I didn't exist at that time)
Stunning!! They love his there and around the world!!!
I'm italian and when I see Colin perform I feel proud to be australian :)))
Il commento che cercavo!
@@paoloarmone1 hahahhaahah un grande il nostro Colin ;)
Lol, I am portuguese and proud australian
Haha! Beautiful comment!❤
But, he is British!
Vibe total🎸🎸🎸❤️
Really nice arrangement and jacket. Have a great end of year season.
I Love Austrália...Hi from a Brazilian who loves Austrália.
Music icon of Men at Work...Colin
Lots of love and respect 🙏 from India Colin Hay , This song has touched my heart ❤.
The spectacular Colin Hay! Who cares about the crowd? Genius at work ❤
I've been playing this for decades, and still love it 💜
Love from France ❤️
tonight i decided this is my alltime loved song and the best song my ears got pleased with. too many years went by listening to stuff that did not touch my soul like this tune. i am 53 now, heard it first on german radio way back. thanks to you guys and especially colin.
As a big horse racing fan for about 25 years, this has made my day today - excellent Colin and to all our Australian friends!!
You are the best colin , the back up singers and band were great , maybe time to make a change to your regular band - joy
What a legend ☺just a fantastic sight and sound go colin .
@ColinHayOfficial. melbourne Aus
Great Presentation Colin. In the opening I was a bit apprehensive the way the verse had been slowed down but had a feeling the cool beat would kick in on the second verse. I never get tired of hearing Down Under & still to this day sing it to myself from time to time while I'm working. Thanks for your great poetic contributions through the years.
What a performance 🤘. Colin Hay spreading joy around the world
at the flute riff at 3:15 I noticed your smile and I remember (the much admired) Mr Greg HAM...
The legendary men at work !!🎉 and this is coming from a 56 year old black guy from queens ny ! 🎉❤
Wonderful
Crowd looked a little lethargic. How do you stand still when that song is being performed by the master.
This is their national anthem. No one is out twerking when the Star Spangled Banner plays.
@@gregkosinski2303I'm pretty sure this is not their National anthem, that's Waltzing Matilda.
@@gregkosinski2303this is most definitely not their national anthem, but it should be.
I saw Men At Work many yrs. ago in Richmond, Va. for $5.00. They were great. I even got to meet Colin Hay. After the show he came out and mingled with the audience. Miss those concerts at Innsbrook ❤
O cara ainda canta muito !
Incrível.
PLEASE COLIN COME TO ITALY I NEED TO SEE YOU AT LEAST ONE TIME IN MY LIFE 🙏🏼❤️
Freakin awesome, Colin did amazing things for Aussie music. True legend.
Spectacular Australian musician and a magnificent Aussie made guitar
We saw him live on stage with his acoustic guitar last night in the UK. Fabulous!!!! What a voice what a songwriter. He finished the set with Down Under but there is so much more to his genius that just that massive song.
Wow! Such memories. Love this.
Wonderful 👏
from the first day I heard this song until now You can't help but not to smile and sing along with this song. And because of this song I went out and ordered some Vegemite and made me a sandwich. I didn't like it but in honor of men at work I had to eat it all. Well Colin thank you for all the great songs when you were in Men at work and your solo career.
Australia's true anthem...can't you hear the thunder? A mixture of cultures and races that form this beautiful continent.
The memories,,,شكرا colin
Fondly remember this song when I was a youth.
The most enthralling performance ..m
The word icon under sells Colin - the greatest aussie ever
Inno nazionale di Australia. 👏👏👏 From Tuscany 🇮🇹
Loved this, Colin's voice is still as good as ever 💙🎶
Give it a rest Hay
Love from U.S.A❤️🌹
Great to see the man is still at work!
My 80’s just came back to me. Thank you. 🎉❤
