Hunters & Collectors - Love All Over Again Lyrics






Party's over – the dawn is red
Search light swinging way overhead
I believe I'm looking for love all over again
Which way danger – which way home
I wander in the wasteland – through the unknown
Looking for love all over again

Somebody said – "Look around and you will find
Wake up and open your mind
Leave your despair behind
Ya looking for love all over again"

Take a look into the rising sun
Tomorrow has finally come
Nothing to lose but love all over again
There is no heaven there is no hell
Here I am in the here and now
On my hands and knees all over again

All the way home – the end has never been so near
Love without favour or fear
You're long gone but I'm still here
For love all over again

I made a promise I just could not keep
Visions of freedom were lurking in my sleep
Day in day out I sowed the seed
But I left behind all the dreams I did not need

Mother knows everything's gonna be alright
Those dreams of hope, they grow like weeds
All through the night

Found myself now I'm coming down
I've been crawling all over this town
Around and around and around all over again

Can't you feel the wind?
The end has never been so near
Love without favour or fear
Your love gone but I'm still here for love

Somebody said – "Look around and you will find
Wake up and open your mind
Leave your despair behind
Ya looking for love all over again"

    I first heard this song when I was in Ireland on a 3 month extended holiday and watching the Belfast tube they had a group called Dave Anthony All Stars and they covered this song. A Australian girl was working the front Youth Hostel desk and explained about the song and who the guys singing it were. I later met up with other Australian ladies there one of them offered to send me a cassette copy of some music I sent her some Canadian celtic music should have continued writing the lady there oh well times lost seasons passed.

    Hunters, Hoodoo’s, Kelly, Cave.
    Simply the best live entertainment on Earth.

  41. d.... j....

    love this song ♥

  42. L.... M....

    Best version

  43. A.... B....

    I heard this live at the pub at the corner of our street in West Melbourne

    A.... B....

    And Jeremy Smith and I played in a band together - just not this sort of band...

  44. S.... ....

    Original version is better

  45. A.... 0....

    I want a really good pub rock band to get famous nowadays just to crush all the annoying drugged up rappers and...wait...that’s all there is isn’t it

  46. P.... B....

    Isn’t this song about a one night stand? Not very appropriate for a funeral song? No offence too all those who want this as a send off song but cmon but I guess it’s a change from Jeff Buckley

  47. C.... H....

    Brilliant, an iconic Aussie song!

  48. J.... T....

    I remember them playing a pub in Geelong when I was Seventeen they were great

  49. B.... &....

    Rip Lewy

  50. A.... G....

    Love n light stay bright n beautiful XXX

    Eargasm listening to you daily n nightly.. My dream is to duo this w Mark beautiful Seymour in Port Macquarie please.. 0421578170 [email protected] 2444 NSW coast of Australia oohh oohh..

  52. j.... ....

    As an American I van honestly say all Australian ppl I've met have been sweet, good ppl.

    j.... ....

    thanks nice to say so

  53. D.... M....

    Very talented family that one. Mark leads this band and his brother Nick was in Crowded House. One of their best songs.

  54. A.... y....

    This song is REALLY creepy

  55. s.... ....

    this version of the song is awful

  56. M.... M....

    Australian Pub Rock . Remember this folks ? I lived in the past and thrived . Now I am just a Ghost . Australia Where have you gone ?

    M.... M....

    We have gone down the rabbit hole, and it ain't nice.

    M.... M....

    Australian rock has died

    M.... M....

    I grew up on Australian Pub Rock. Hunters & Collectors, Innocent Bystanders, Weddings, Parties, Falling Joys, ... Moved to NYC, raised two kids, and going out to a show today means seeing Emo Hip-Hop (yes, it's a thing, try BONES) , or David Byrne with my kids. But at least twice a year I get to rent a car and the Aussie rock comes out - and it never ever feels tired. Every two or three years I return to Oz - but its not the same, innocent country where I grew up. What happened?

  57. t.... ....

    The footage of the aussie landscape really adds to it...no cultural cringe here!

  58. k.... ....

    Best Aussie band by the length of the Flemington straight.

    k.... ....

    except AC/DC, cold Chisel, Hoodoo gurus INXS and a few others i could name but yeah great band just not the best

    k.... ....

    Sammy Dog Cold Chisel? Barnes makes my ears bleed profusely!

    k.... ....

    Sttill CC + the others i mentioned n some i didnt > H+C

    k.... ....

    Sammy Dog Diagree vehemently, Mark Seymour one of the best singer/songwriter/guitarists Australia has produced but you are right, there is one band who beats the lot of them, The Seekers.

  59. M.... M....

    Enjoyed meeting Mark and the guys, and doing security for them.
    Great musicians !!!!!!!!!

  60. H.... J....

    30+ years and this song makes me cry EVERY time.

  61. A.... A....

    Here I am at 60. Thanks for the therapy!

  62. M.... ....

    I have had this beauty stuck in my head for days, and couldn’t remember the name or any of the lyrics! 😂 Just had the melody going round and round. 🎶🎶🎶🎶

  63. H.... t....

    Anybody Bose headphones?

  64. b.... d....

    one of the greatest love songs ...

  65. j.... s....

    That song was for angel and shane on home and away

  66. B.... P....

    Got to be one of the best songs ever written

  67. m.... j....

    I think Eddie and old mate are better, coz when old mate sings it's fkn betterer

  68. m.... j....

    Guess I'm an old dog 1990.

  69. K.... P....

    The original from 1986 is so much better. Its like this one is americanised. We did that a lot in the 80's and 90's.

    K.... P....

    that was too fast in my opinion. maybe i'm just used to listening to this one

  70. l.... ....

    Young modern ¥uck$ made this popular again. People who continue to equate their life in $/hr(yeah you) are handing control to old slave money and the reason to your confusion.

  71. A.... M....

    Best ever.So underrated. Version with Vedder maybe even better

  72. B.... B....

    My youth

  73. E.... C....

    I will come for you at nighttime
    I will raise you from your sleep
    I will kiss you in four places
    As I go running along your street
    I will squeeze the life out of you
    You will make me laugh and make me cry
    And we will never forget it
    You will make me call your name
    And I'll shout it to the blue summer sky
    And we may never meet again
    So shed your skin and let's get started
    And you will throw your arms around me
    Yeah, you will throw your arms around me
    I dreamed of you at nighttime
    And I watched you in your sleep
    I met you in high places
    I touched your head and touched your feet
    So if you disappear out of view
    You know I will never say goodbye
    And though I try to forget it
    You will make me call your name
    And I'll shout it to the blue summer sky
    And we may never meet again
    So shed your skin and let's get started
    And you will throw your arms around me
    Yeah, you will throw your arms around me
    Oh, yeah
    Oh yeah
    You will throw your arms around me
    Yeah, you will throw your arms around me

  74. M.... P....

    Hunters, Hoodoo’s, Kelly, Cave.
    Simply the best live entertainment on Earth.

    M.... P....

    Mike Perth agree 100% but you have to throw the oils in. Oh and I didn’t expect it but weddings parties anything go off live.

    M.... P....

    Ed Kuepper, also.

    M.... P....

    Fuck yeah brother!!!

    M.... P....

    Naturally, because they started out playing in pubs and such.
    Where they had to be good at entertaining the patrons, live, or the managers/owners of the pubs wouldn't ask them to return. And the crowds would certainly BOOOOO them off stage if they were no good.
    That's why Australia spawned some of the best live talent in the world, back in the 70's and 80's, out of the pub scene.

    I'd like to also add The Angels to that list.
    R.I.P Doc ❤
    He certainly knew how to entertain the masses.

    M.... P....

    Angels, Oils, Mentals ... the list goes on and on ...

  75. r.... d....

    Just throw ur arms around me!!!!!! Tune!!!

  76. N.... A....

    108 people own a nickelback cd

  77. A.... J....

    EXCELLENT this is a personal favourite

  78. H.... T....

    Such a Sweet Song 😇

  79. K.... S....

    NRMA brought me here!

  80. s.... ....

    One of the greatest songs ever! Thank you!

  81. C.... D....

    this remake is far superior to the original

  82. S.... H....

    The best

  83. N.... ....

    I Never really knew about them, but after seeing them play yesterday i've come to like them, mostly of course this song and the holy grail. made seeing them live probably more amazing

    N.... ....

    Check out "Say Goodbye", best horn section in any rock song ever.

  84. I.... A....

    NRMA advertisement bring me here. 👍 love the song 😘

  85. c.... m....

    The best chat up line for a one night stand .ever

    c.... m....

    How about; do you sleep on your stomach,?, would you mind if l did?(I heard it a while ago, no offence intended.)

  86. S.... W....

    NRMA jingle anyone? :D

  87. C.... W....

    Save the last dance for me would be a rival for most covered - and just as romantic!

  88. H.... ....

    Hunter & Collectors do sing some nice & Excellent songs

  89. L.... B....

    we may never meet again

  90. N.... C....

    why did they let this beautiful song be massacred by that insurance ad?

    N.... C....

    Money . When the band ceases the revenue does as well.

    N.... C....

    I agree! The chick that sings her version on the NRMA commercial is shocking! It sounds terrible...

    N.... C....

    Yes just should have had the Hunters playing over the top of a visual of people being rescued. But it was cheaper to butcher the pig than to buy the whole farm.@MaleOrderBride

    N.... C....

    This is the version i remember https://youtu.be/zON9sg6ADjQ

    N.... C....

    Natasha, because they're too tight arsed to pay royalties.

  91. F.... I....

    thank god he learned to sing after this

  92. Z.... T....

    This sounds like a serial killers song lol

  93. p.... w....

    of course Australia was always far from perfect....but, what the hell happened to this country..where did we go wrong....

    p.... w....

    I grew up on the Northern Beaches, my mum still lives in Sydney and my little sis on Kangaroo Island, and until recently I always thought leaving the U.S. and retiring back home would be the best option. Sure, it's not quite as bad, but really, how did it slide downhill so quickly over there? I'm so sad for the world as a whole more than myself and my loved ones, but how do the masses keep falling for this bullshit, again and again and again and again (into the trees)?

  94. J.... Z....

    I want to know where the 4 places r.

  95. B.... M....

    For the love of fake baby jesus, please release this version on google play music....

  96. J.... L....

    Listening to this to get the massacred NRMA version out of my head!

    J.... L....

    Jan Lyons 😫 🤣🤣

  97. m.... c....

    he looks like the son from hardcore pawn

  98. B.... T....

    I will come for you at night time I will raise you from your sleep....I will squeeze the life out of you....i have watched you in your sleep...shed your skin and let’s get started... who wrote this damned song??!!! Ted Bundy??!!!

    B.... T....

    Bobby-Jo Tuita 😂😂 I think it’s just one of those songs which have unintentionally creepy lyrics if read and not sung.
