Car: 2 cars + 3 bikes Rep Power: 68   |  The Australian music appreciation thread! I know there is a music thread, but I am the only one posting there... So I decided to make a thread here. A lot of great music has come from down under, famous bands like AC/DC and INXS for example. But there must be tons of others that haven't reached us up here. So please, post your favorite aussie songs!!  My top three aussie songs, obviously all oldies...: 1, Moving Pictures - What About Me? what a song, what a voice, the emotions!!! 
2, Daryl Braithwaite - One Summer Undoubtedly the best summer song ever! Oh, the memories, if only we could turn back time!!
3, Midnight Oil - Beds are burning  nothing more to say!

Car: IS250 RWD Rep Power: 93 | They might be talented at playing music but Johnson's voice bothers me too much to give them a chance. I do like that style music, just not AC/DC. |

Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm stuck in a 2003 iPod commercial, but it's a fantastic and catchy song and I can't get enough of it. That's about all the Australian music I can really think of.  Didgeridoos are pretty neat too, huh?
