Chris Knox - Not Given Lightly....Again


Finally the original clip of Chris Knox's classic Not Given Lightly from 1989. This was unavailable on youtube a few years back. See this old post. As I've said before this is one of the best songs ever, in my book. It doesn't get any better than this for a love song!

Tall Dwarves


Tall Dwarves
Turning Brown & Torn In Two

I remember seeing this on Rage in the 80s and thinking what the fuck is this?
It still sounds otherworldly. On Flying Nun from 82 or 83 despite the video saying 1987.

Chris Knox - Not Given Lightly


Best Song Ever!
Warning!!! Trainwreck TV!!!!
I can barely watch it, but he's a fucking trooper and he makes the best of a bad situation. If you're into schadenfreude you'll love it. This is a live clip from ABC's Recovery from the 90s. It's very strange and a bit awkward. Did this man have any luck in Australia? Toy Love his original punky band moved here got fucked over by a major record label and tanked. I reckon he must hate gettin on that plane with the the ticket that says destination Australia.

The below clip is even stranger. Someone has put some Manga film to go with the song. The original clip couldn't be found on the youtubes. Anyway it's all about the tune. Me love a lot, the song that is.
