"Errol" is another great song of theirs. And of course "Boys light up" and "Oh no, not you again.". James Reign went on to a solo career. Many a backyard BBQ listening to this band. Good times. 👍

I loved this. Not Australian but I am loving the vibe. Especially the bass.

Australian here well done mate 👏

Every tourist in Oz that picked up this song, refer to it as their soundtrack to their visit.

What a great vibe this song has. James Reyne was so charismatic. Love it!

Aussie Crawl. Love their sound, so different to other bands we had in the 80’s but it was a stable at most BBQ’s. True that James Reyne (pronounced like Rain) articulation was hard to get sometimes, but the music was understatable. Another good tune is Errol about the movie star Errol Flynn from 🇦🇺 The singer in that song was Guy McDonough. Other songs would be Downhearted, The Boys Light Up, Beautiful People, Oh No Not You Again (also sung by Guy). I did love the one’s Guy sang. RIP Guy who passed back in 1984

Aus Crawl and the singer James Reyne are legends down here. This song evokes Sydney Harbour and the ferry to Manly. They have other songs that are not quite so chill. I love James Reyne’s solo song Fall of Rome, that rocks along very well indeed

Welcome 🤗 ❤aboard 😊

Aussie music from the 70's on is massively under-rated. Dragon.Noiseworks.Divinyls.The Models.Spy vs Spy.The Radiators.Rose Tattoo....and that's just off the top of my head.You can't go wrong. For an Oz Crawl tune to follow up go with Hoochie Coochie Fiorucci Mama.

Great song, glad you enjoyed it (somewhat) 😀 It's a song for midday bar-b-ques or late at night when everyone is winding down

The singer, James Reyne, also had a very successful solo career with many big hits after the band split up.

If you want some really epic from James Reyne post Australian Crawl, try “Always The Way” from his eponymous album in 1987. American Jef Scott’s guitar work will leave you in raptures.

Definitely their best song

.....best songs for Aussie Crawl (including Reckless) - Daughters of the Northern Coast. James Reyne (lead singer) does a legendary job with Motor city too. Maybe more your speed Rollen those songs.

Motor City with Company of Strangers is excellent

Oz Crawl are Aussie legends I remember seeing them twice in the early 80's with the Radiators I've never had a better night.

Oz crawl .. legends.

Their song Downhearted is a classic tune.

James is very talented 👏

Of their hits this is really most chill very different from 'Errol' or 'Boys Light Up'

The extra line got you there

This was a good vibe , never heard it before. It came out the year I graduated HS so this would’ve been way too mellow for me then. 👍🔥🫶🏽🔥🚌💨💨😶‍🌫️💨💨

Am an Aussie and have always loved this song! So many great ones from this band, I love “Hammerhead” with backing vocals by Olivia Newton John. Terrific band live, have seen them at quite a few pubs. They were from the Mornington Peninsula, way outside of inner Melbourne.

Heroin was the drug of choice back then.

Written by Paul Kelly. So much Australian imagery in the '80s lyrics. Guitar solo by Brad Robinson (RIP) at 7:20 is just beautiful and timeless.

highly overplayed on aussie radio in the 80s!...but...it is a really great song.. your radio voice is awesome! LOL

Get pick up Rollen - but I think you will enjoy the vibe and sentiment of another one of their songs 'Boys Light Up' - they have got a brilliant back catalogue, but this is definitely on the slowest end of it.

Listen to their song "unpublished critics".. You've heard it before under the title of "sweet child of mine". Yeah gunners ripped it off from Aussie crawl. They were on the same geffen label. 😆

The Angels, and Rose Tattoo are also great Aussie rock bands I think you’d like. Here check this out if ya like Rose Tattoo - kzread.info/dash/bejne/mJ2oxcuSeZPQd6w.html

We didn't have any bands like Journey. Our bands were pub bands. You had to be able to play a pub to be successful

Hey mate, if you'd like a bit more upbeat aussie classic check out Men at Work- Land down under. Great song, & the lead singer could be your twin

Your intro is too long and a sad amount of level in the music

Boring song, I hated it. Try Things Dont Seem, Downhearted, Oh no, not you again, Unpublished critics, The Boys light up, Errol All better tracks than that one.
