Hilltop Hoods are great. "Nosebleed Section", "Cosby Sweater", and "50 in 5" are great. The Living End are awesome. Look at "E-Boogie / Second Solution" live at the big day out. Another band to check out is The Black Sorrows. "Chained to the Wheels" would be a good start.

I bet if you ask most Australian's what the name of Gang Gajang's song "Sounds of Then" is titled they would reply - "This is Australia". I know I am guilty of this. 😉😉

I had to laugh because you made your no way face at the exact same songs that I make that face for 😆 I recall you doing Paul Kelly 'To Her Door' because I think you loved the bass guitar, if i remember right - but of course my memory has a little trouble at times 😄

I'm surprised that Savage Garden didn't make it into the top 30 songs with the success of their songs "Truly Madly Deeply" and "To the Moon and Back" internationally in the 90's, especially compared to artists like Tame Impala - seriously ? I guess it's a personal preference thing in terms of musical tastes.

Nick Cave rabbit hole would be great Nick has got a vast discography from his late 70’s punk days starting out with The Boys Next Door their key song is * Shivers Then Boys Next Door evolved into the early 80’s experimental band The Birthday Party key song is * Nick The Stripper . Then by the mid 80’s Birthday Party evolved into Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds . Key songs ; * The Mercy Seat * The Ship Song * Red Right Hand * Stagger Lee * Where The Wild Roses Grow ( with Kylie Minogue ) * Into These Arms * 15 Feet Of Pure White Snow * Bring It On ( with Chris Bailey from The Saints) * There Goes My Beautiful World * Oh Children * No Pussy Blues ( side project Grinderman ) * Dig Lazarus Dig * Jubilee Street * Distant Sky ( used in Zack Snyders Justice League movie ) . Nick Cave is regarded as one Australia’s best singer songwriters .

Leaving out Evie by Stevie Wright (ex Easybeats) is a crime. A 3 part masterpiece of Aussie rock. What about me from Moving Pictures...Eagle Rock from Daddy Cool are also interesting omissions.

If you lived in Melbourne and were a regular studio attendee on Countdown, you got to see a lot of these pre-1987 songs be tested on the show prior to them becoming hits. A lot of us ''Countdown kids'' would agree on which song we'd back for a week or a month, and we'd spend that week/month pestering radio stations to play it. I was right in front of INXS when they did their first performance on Countdown with a song called ''Simple Simon'', and I was in front of Men At Work when they did their debut Countdown appearance with ''Who Can It Be Now?''. It would be pretty cool if you tried non-Australian songs that only became hits in Australia due to the push that us Countdown kids gave them.

I got the big 69 like!!! baahaaa.. Invest in some better headphones.. I have some JBLs, Sennheiser's etc.. something semi-closed or open, claim them on tax.. semi-open or open is good for long listening.. My Gen X band (we are all 50s now, from the 90s) play Are You Gonna Be My Girl, Prisoner Of Society.. (first 2 songs on the list!). Australia has an amazing National Youth Radio Station called Triple J (part of the National Broadcaster in TV and radio, the ABC) and they have, through their talent competitions, found some of the biggest acts in Australia, including Silverchair.
