Holy crap, this is 40 years ago? Oh God... My friends and I often went to Kings Cross in the 80's and the 90's. The first time was very exciting, but after a while, it just got to be the same old scene. Though I was not a Chisel fan, I could relate to the wearisome that's projected in this song.

Kings Cross was a pool of debauchery. Great times. Chisel played the Room while others played the other bar. Sweethearts was the breakfast bar.

Brings back memories of back yard Barbie's, camping and Christmas on the beach

Very good! Shows the diversity of Cold Chisel's music. This was shot in Sydney's Kings Cross in Feb. 1984, and has scenes of the Gay And Lesbian Mardi Gras, which is now a big money maker. I worked at Sydney's Kings Cross, and it's a place you can't forget.

Awesome song! 👍Flame Tree should come next.

I was done with University when this song was released. It really does take me back to the mid 80's and all the fun I was having on Saturday night. Kings Cross wasn't bad if you were with a tight group of friends. It was certainly better being out at the Cross on a Saturday night than it was driving through the place at 3am on a weeknight. For some reason, there was something very disconcerting about Kings Cross in the very early hours of the morning on a weeknight. Fun fact: The video starts off with the fade out of Split Enz ''Message To My Girl'', which was a hit at the time.

Great reaction. I only recently discovered your channel. You have a good relaxing vibe. I believe that song was filmed in Feb 1984. I went to Kings Cross for the first time in Sept that same year with two mates. I was only 14 so it was a real eye opener. That song film clip always brings back good memories. The two mates I went there with that night are still my mates today.

No problem to not precede it with Ghost Town. That was just my suggestion since the last Cold Chisel video was a double shot of two other songs from the album that were much more random. Ghost Town literally merges into Saturday Night on the album and there's a fantastic counterpoint between the angst and energy of Ghost Town versus the cruisey way that Saturday Night begins.

Thanks for reacting to this much appreciated. This is one of my all time favourites

Seen chisel in 82 here in Perth Western Australia . 🇦🇺

This is pretty personal, because the clip was shot on my stomping ground in Sydney. I grew up around Kings Cross, and walked those streets as a spooky Shelley Duvall look-a-like teenager. I even know a couple of faces in the video. What you're seeing and hearing was typical of Kings Cross on any given night of the week, and Saturday night... forget about it. It was nuts. Members of Cold Chisel are seen in the video, which is fitting because the band lived there during the first three years they were in Sydney. I used to see members of the band in various eateries including Sweethearts. I think this was their second last hit and it's fitting that most of the video is shot in Kings Cross. Thank you for viewing it!

The Twentieth Century album was a very tense, fractured time in Cold Chisel's history. The band members were barely on speaking terms. Jimmy Barnes wanted to make a polished studio production (mentioning The Eagles Long Run album as an example), while Don Walker wanted to "do what Cold Chisel does best", and set up in a theatre and play live. Both approaches, and mutliple (I think six) producers were tried, resulting an a very different sound for every song. As suggested elsewhere here, have a listen to Flame Trees, and then Only One. Back when this album was released, Flame Trees was the last track on Side 1, and Side 2 opened with Only One (and blew your speakers).

I can confirm, with the authority of experience, that Kings Cross in the 90's was a pretty chaotic and crazy place to walk through on the weekend. It was seedy as hell, and a fun place to be if you had mates. Door men at Strip Clubs would try dragging you into their venue and beg for tips, uncover cops would offer you drugs, prostitutes would do their prostitute thing, cabbies would be busy dropping off and picking up every idiot possible, and people chasing eachother around for God knows why... You might be describing the same thing in Canada, but it was more than just drunks and homeless on the side of the road and everyday people walking along... Even during the early stages of the lockout laws was quite crazy. But the council now has Kings Cross in a transitional stage where it's heading towards gentrification. All those that survived Kings Cross in its former glory can now stroll down Darlinghurst Road with their strollers, and muse over the good old days of debauchery. I'll be one of them.

Fantastic song. From my young days the Cold Chisel songs i remember and love most are Khe Sanh, Flame Trees and Saturday Night. All three are less traditional so gs by them.

Scientists have discovered that animal species evolving in geographically isolated environments can develop in unique and unexpected ways. Cold Chisel are a strange amalgam of different styles and influences which provides for an interesting listening experience. I like this particular song, its unexpected changes and the way it pulls together the sights and sounds of the city. I generally tried to avoid going into town on Saturday nights because in the days when black cabs were the only option it used to mean a long wait on the taxi rank, or a fight, if you wanted to get home.

Saturday Night is 🍻 night ! 🎷

I was born in Sydney (at the now closed Crown St Women's Hospital, the shame, a guy being born in a women's hospital!!) For my first 8 years, we lived in Mortlake, then the family moved to Blacktown. Being a westie, i seldom ventured into Sydney, but i did occassionally. I was a pastrycook, and the technical college i went to was East Sydney, the Cross, and was very different by day. But by night, to quote the song Friday Night by Redgum, Friday night, like a Bundy neat, smells so sleazy and tastes so sweet.... To be honest, my friends were more likely to go to the cinemas in George St, then dinner in China town than the red light district.

This song is a jam that plays on a social commentary of big city nightlife, but particularly that part of the night where everything starts closing and people are finding their way home.

Great track. Certainly makes me think of late Saturday nights in early to mid 1980's when this song must have been on the radio. Although I did not relate too much to the seedy inner Sydney King's Cross area but I believe Don Walker as keyboard player used to live in that area in some apartment. Songs like this and Breakfast at Sweethearts by the band, certainly give an insight into the sights and sounds of that area where he was located. Interestingly, listened to an interview with him recently on some podcast and he really grew up in rural areas, way out of a big city so it fascinating in his adult years he had to move to a big city. One of my favourite things about Cold Chisel albums is how different a style they can be on one track to the next on same album. The other request such as Ghostown is on same album and very different. I really like the song The Game from this album but still cannot figure out what the song is about. I think the man on sax in the song is actually Joe Camelleri. That man got around as seen him in some live concert on sax with Icehouse in some concert in Germany back in those times.

I was more into The Angels than Chisel, but Jimmy and co. had their moments. This is a great Richard Lowenstein video.

I should have prefaced by saying that I wasn't an Angels fan, but I liked them more..

I was not a cool kid at school and in Year 12 as I was (and still am) a Bealtes fan had no idea why kids kept going Do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do Saturday Night.... This was filmed around Kings Cross, which is famous for Sydney's brothels, gay bars, etc.

It's funny this clip takes me back to my youth. If you were single you'd go to the str8 clubs in places like the Cross trying to pick up and there tended to be a level of violence as guys would compete for good looking girls. If you had a girl you'd go to places like Oxford St with it's gay clubs and the girls could relax and dance and have a good time with no threat level. This clip shows glimpses of those two scenes which were literally a few hundred meters away from each other on opposite sides of the same suburb. I remember once a good friend had a particularly bad break up and we took her to a club at Oxford St and she was all worried because she had never interacted with gay people in her life, 2 hours later she's on a platform dancing around a pole with two shirtless gay boys having the time of her life. This clip beautifully shows all the nuances of inner city Sydney in that era. They had another song "Breakfast at Sweethearts" which was a place where people would go after a really big night to wind down and sober up a bit before heading home. Great song and fun reaction guys.

This song captures the vibe and menace of Saturday night in Sydneys Kings Cross.....but it needs a quality amp and quality floor standing speakers or monitors to immerse the body and senses in the feel. Head phones only give you about 60% of the sound and feel.....the vital 40% is what you feel through your feet and vibrating off the walls and ceiling. Ear buds are only suitable for computer noises and dub step, ear phones for pop music without disturbing the neighbour's. Even opera and classical music NEEDS the other 40% to be truely felt and experienced.

I'd like to see a reaction to a really overlooked Cold Chisel song called Misfits, it's like street poetry catching teenage life in a bottle just magic. I enjoy the channel :)

They're taking on a variation of styles in this one song, and the results are quite affective. I'll be keeping my eye on these guys. It would be a delight if you could do The Sports performing ''Don't Hold Back That Feeling'' on some TV show in the 70's. The sound is in mono and the tape a little fuzzy, but the performance is hypnotic and is much preferred than the inferior audio version. If you do this song, please choose the TV performance version.

A summery of all the comments on this video: This ''happy'' party song was the second last single from Cold Chisel's final album 'Twentieth Century''. The album was recorded when the band were on the brink of breaking up, and they were not on speaking terms. The video was shot by Richard Lowenstein in Kings Cross in Sydney, and has scenes of the Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras, which was a slightly risky thing for Cold Chisel to include in the video, because the band had a mostly heterosexual Aussie male audience. The band can be seen walking around the seedy Red Light District of Sydney's Kings Cross and the fade out of Split Enz's ''Message To My Girl'' can be heard at the start of the video. Sydney has changed since this video was shot forty years ago, and Kings Cross is heading towards gentrification. It was a wild place until the lockdown laws came in. Cold Chisel reformed in 1998 and have continued to enjoy success in their home country. ''Saturday Night'' has appeared on every Cold Chisel compilation release, and still receives radio play.

Old school Kings Cross. I remember walking through there in the early 90's walking down to the Navy base in the mornings and going out there occasionally. This was the red light, seedy district being just up the road from a national Navy base and one where foreign warships came alongside. The whole area has been largely gentrified now.

Eeww, Kings Cross in Sydney. I had a lot of fun times there in the 80's and 90's. Ghost Town would be a fitting song as a follow up. That's exactly what Kings Cross is now.

Indeed. Love the live version from Germany when band seemed like they ready to break up. I do not know if they did soon after but they seemed really moody with each other in that live concert, despite the music sounding so raw and good to me.

That was Sydney in 1985, you can imagine how bad it is now. 🙂

The video was shot by Richard Lowenstein, who made many of INXS's landmark videos including ''Need You Tonight''. He also did the video for Hunters & Collectors' ''Talking To A Stranger'', and did the good movie 'Dogs In Sapce' starring Michael Hutchence. What's interesting is that Chisel were all for having scenes of the Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras in the clip. It was risky because Chisel's core audience were mostly heterosexual Aussie men, and the biggest show that would play the video was Countdown. Neither had an issue with the Mardi Gras scenes, which was a posative sign of progress and tolerance in Australia. Cold Chisel were no longer a band when the video was shot. The following video 'Flame Tree' has even less shots of the group. Cheers, Hayley

This is more of a vibe song but love it.

Ah, Sydney back in the day.

I spent many years in my early 20s around Darlinghurst and The Cross, in the early hours, waiting for my copper girlfriend to finish her shifts. Many a night where i would befriend someone in a pub, and end up taking a variety of substances. Needless to say, my copper missus wasn't my biggest fan when i met her at end of shift but it turns out she was cheating on me a long time before that anyway, so those times alone and with strangers, mean even more to me now. Its no surprise but i'm not with that person now, luckily. Chisel was the music of my youth.

A finish to your 'Days of the week' thing, Chris, I hope that you consider doing it again, it's been enjoyable.

All the video needs is Paul Hogan to pop up and say ''Have a shrimp on the barbie, or maybe a shoot in the old loo''. 😵‍💫 Y'know, you weren't getting a full Sydney experience if you didn't take a stroll through the Cross. Sharon O'Neill's ''Maxine'' also has some lovely Kings Cross views. Check it out.

🎉Cool! This was Kings Cross, in Sydney. 1980s. You could occasionally see the guys, apparently, just standing there, facing the street. They were the bouncers, guiding the entrances to the strip clubs. Kings Cross was a pretty rough spot in those days.

London has Soho, NY has Harlem and Spanish Harlem. Australia has Kings Cross......if not from Sydney, then walking The Cross on a Saturday Night is a bit like being the white boy walking Harlem after dark. lol

That's Kings Cross and Darlinghurst in Sydney and that's all the people out on Saturday night. It's a good song and the video is a capture of times gone by.
