Yeah, The Living End were pretty huge here during the 90's. I never liked their stuff much, but Chris Cheney is a talented man.

(That said, deeming his song the best means overlooking Boy and Bear's "Fall at Your Feet" and Barnsie's "Message to my Girl". And Paul Kelly's "Four Seasons in One Day", for that matter.

Eagle eyed readers will note that The Break's "Shark Attack" doesn't even rate - not their fault, but the vocalist they worked with, Dan Sultan, has ruined it)

Also, Colin Hay is performing near me next month, but the tickets aren�t cheap.� Anyone seen him in concert?� Is it worth it?


Absolutely worth it!

Thanks for your input.

Oh, and Happy New Year�s, everybody!


Cheers,
