Midnight Oil - Golden Age Lyrics
All the screens are filled with heroes and losers
but the sky's still filled with stars
this junky palace might be on fire
til the winners lose desire
let it go let it go.
So tell me what you see
tell me what you hear
if it's the same as me it's the golden age.
Big brother tries to stitch and bend
but channel surfers find new friends
see freedom's silhouette increase
its time to claim that sweet release
let it go let it go.
framed in eucalypt from this wooden floored verandah
heading past the watermark
heading for the hills
heading for the edge of time
heading for the thrills of the golden age.
Now tell me what you see
and tell me what you hear
if it's the same as me it's the golden age.
Now everybody's talking about the golden age.

dabble778 Criminally underrated song.

The Oils!!!
What a magnificent upbeat jangly-guitar harmony. Midnight Oil do this sound so well, they are only bettered by REM in my opinion. It really gets the juices flowing.
the soundtrack for my childhood...

need to check out the space country albums of Byrds such as 5D and Sweetheart. in coming upon the folk scene as well psycadelic.
Midnight Oil
Drive-in movies and long summer nights -- long ago. With this one, we can all go home again. We've all had a portion of The Golden Age within our lifetimes.
A bit like the Hoo-Doo Gurus (another great band from Oz).
Agree - the jangly guitar sound was pretty big in Australia in the 1980s and 90s.
Music for the wide open road.
King tone. Thought-provoking. Thanks for posting this.
The Golden Age -- America 1900 -- 1929 and 1945 - 1965. Where are we now, my fellow Romans?
Walt Fechter
We're waiting Walt.
Hang in there mate.
Book of Romans by Apostle Paul. I recommend.
Yep - great show
