Oh it's about to lose it's relevance. Only 6000 Australian aboriginals remain. The rest are all mixed with whites. In 100 years there will be no Aboriginal Australians. Just 99% white people. There will be nobody to give it back to. Multiculturalism is the graveyard of diversity.

"Beds Are Burning" is a 1987 song by the Australian rock band Midnight Oil, the first track from their album Diesel and Dust. This song was released as the second single from the album. It reached No. 1 in New Zealand, South Africa and Canada, No. 3 in the Netherlands, No. 5 in France, No. 6 in the United Kingdom, Australia and Ireland, No. 17 in the United States and Sweden. It is one of The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame's 500 Songs that Shaped Rock and Roll and it was named number 95 on VH1's 100 Greatest One Hit Wonders of the 80s and number 97 by the Triple J Hottest 100 of All Time in 2009. In May 2001, Australasian Performing Right Association celebrated its 75th anniversary by naming the Best Australian Songs of all time, as decided by a 100 strong industry panel. "Beds Are Burning" was declared third behind the Easybeats' "Friday on My Mind" and Daddy Cool's "Eagle Rock"

Peter Garrett was the singer in Midnight Oil. He is no longer with the band. He served two terms as president of the Australian Conservation Foundation. In his first term, from 1989 to 1993, significant results were achieved for many threatened areas of the Australian environment including Coronation Hill in Kakadu, Shoalwater Bay in Queensland, the Queensland Wet Tropics rainforest and Jervis Bay in NSW. In his second term, the ACF grew strongly, developed partnerships with non-government organisations, progressive business groups and companies, and expanded it's campaigning into marine conservation and northern Australia. He received the Australian Humanitarian Foundation Award ( environment category) in 2000, and in 2003 received the Order of Australia (Member General Division) for his contribution to environment and the music industry. Dude lives what he believes.Vern Collins - Vancouver, Wa

I find it hopeful that even people from the US are still listening to this song. It’s probably been one of the most essential Australian tracks in music history and it’s meaning is more important than ever, especially to the Indigenous Australians who have been on Australia for more than 40,000 years.

Why did Garret join a political party (instead of being an Independent) that burnt over 200 houses down and killed 4 people? Pink Batts anyone? Garret was responsible for that disgrace but then he gets on stage and sings this very song???? Beds are Burning? They sure were you prick.
