Reminds me of 2001 sitting in kings park hearing triple j while waiting for the outdoor cinema to open. Drinking passion pop and cheap pizza. While smoking a pack of winnie blues. Memories

Yeah back when Triple J was actually pretty awesome. Shame that it has become what it is now; I'm not referring so much to the music, but the hosts are as irritating as those on commercial stations. It's as if it is the fatted calf is almost at the end of its life, awaiting slaughter -- which is privatization of course.

Tony Fantasia It's still awesome, it's actually improved since I made the previous comment. But it has been awesomer. They just shouldn't try and compete with the commercial station shock jocks, no body likes them anyway, they simply don't need to do this. The Liberals will try their best to destroy it, and it'll start with budget cuts, then it'll be privatised, then it'll be unrecognisable. As Whitlam said, Maintain the rage.

Nah mate. 2023!

Reminds me of leaving New Zealand at just 6 years old to head for Scotland with my family, miss that place and all the memories. Lucky to have grown up listening to tracks like this from Triple J and the awesome Anzac music scene. Cheers Dad!

The sound of this song just reminds me so much of the great times I had with my friends in 2007. I found this song in 2007 and forgot about it for a few months. With me finding this again is gives me great memories and kinda makes me sad. Just goes to show how much music and other people can affect other people.

This used to play on my local community college radio station about 20 years ago..randomly popped into my head yesterday bringing back some crazy memories

90's was my decade! I was 18 when this came out.. happy days.. *le sigh*

This song brings back too many feels...

i love the way all his songs have a beautifuk meaning, like you can learn something from them

Talented Aussie.

Cool tune. Trip down memory lane.

by far ben lees greatest song, still not sure if im in love with the video clip, but what happened to his charisma after this

I think Ben was hungry when writing this song, at least 5 times he mentions cake and cups of tea

and don't forget the addiction! "I wish that I could say that everyone was wrong" a bad relationship is just as addictive as any drug, and even though you know your friends are right in telling you that you should get out, there's just something keeping you there.

Just heard the end of this on Triple J, in the car this afternoon. Had to come hear the whole thing. Such a great song :)

talk about memories travelled round oz in 98-99 what a tune happy days.

I was pretty young when this song came out. Underrated - I like this more than we're all in this together

I miss the 90's 2 ..... n I was only just born out of the 90's

the song is not actually about cigarettes but america would probs not pick up on that so he made it out to be for the USA. its actually about being in a relationship that is bad but he just stays in it.

I likey this song

warning: lungs were harmed during the making of this video.

love hina.

the australian version has so much more character. american's have always missed the point. this video has no charm. this song is fantastic. i miss the nineties.

I want a TV embrace!

yeah i know i want to see that one but i cant find it

Stop, look, listen. From chord 1 to the final an enormous and well developed song. Love not only lost but nuked. Yet we still seem to find ourselves wrecked in our next love sojourner. Penny Lane = sisters. Stand by it. Same theme.

i quit about 2 months ago :D watching this makes me want one though

when she's putting the cigarettes in her jacket it looks like she's about to pull a gun out and hold up the store - it's a metaphor for the name of the song - "cigarettes will kill you".

1998.. and i listen this song 2020

Absolutely Australian.

The aussie version of this clip is so much better. This is my first viewing of this clip. What were they thinking with this clip. great song and great artist.........

It's funny how some people react by affirming that they like to smoke or by telling that they are just lighting up a cigarette - as if they just resisted a very clever brain washing scheme...

'in playlist Favorite videos'

last night the neighborhood doctor told me i need to quit smoking or else i wont live past thirty, then gave me two inhalers and some antibiotics. sucks.

can somebody give me he link for the australian version please.?

Why can't a find anywhere to download this?

haha I love how the American video takes everything interesting an original about the original video and turns it into a bland and cliched video, plus adds in the literal reference to cigarettes just to make sure the audiences know they're watching the right video. Why do American publishers have such little respect for their audiences?
