While I don't like all their music, I do like Down Under, Who Can It Be Know, and It's a Mistake.
|
They've always been a band I've felt I should check out more, but never seem to get around to...
|
I gave Business as Usual a listen the other day and aside from the hits and a couple of other songs, it didn't really make an impression on me.
I'll give it another spin sometime soon. |
I gotta admit, Who Can It Be Now is one hell of a catchy song with its big sax parts in it.... I quite like that track!
|
I loved their first two albums, I don't know listen to them much anymore but wouldn't object to it. They were pretty much the soundtrack of my 8th grade school year.
|
Probably in the same way Place Without a Postcard by Midnight Oil was my eighth grade anthem CD... those eighties Aussie rock bands, how their music lingers in the ear...
|
Being Australian I've heard there there four big hits many times. Their hits are pretty good, especially Overkill, but their albums and there catalogue in general is nothing special.
But dammit Overkill is such a great song! Lyrically very strong imo, being something that people can relate to. And that mellow sax! |
I liked Men At Work in the 80s, their singles Who Can It Be Now and Down Under anyway. Haven't heard either song in years though besides, seeing their videos on VH1 from time to time.

I was always a fan of their work. I've grown recently to really enjoy Colin's solo stuff. The kind of music you can put on as background while you bbq or knit slippers. I find his lyrics really convey beautifully and having seen him live hes a very genuine person. He lives in Los Angeles now and plays the club circuits here often. |
