best men at work ... ( 1 week ago by MoroccanSoprano)

best men at work song, I don't hear it that often on the radio. For some reason I feel that is a summery song maybe because it is shot in Australia and I heard it a lot by the ocean back home. It brings back a lot of good memories

yeah but just because the song says land down under. doesn't mean its about Australia, hell it could be about coming from their mothers womb. besides. the lead singer is from Scotland. so he quite clearly isn't from Australia

???Are you an idiot ... ( 5 days ago by WeMustBeStopped)

???Are you an idiot? No, wait, I got it, you don't even have to tell me, you ARE an idiot. Men At Work is from Australia, just like The Police are from the U.S., in spite of the fact that Sting was born in U.K. And, just to clarify, the song "The Land Down Under" IS about your mother's womb.

hehehe. i did my research. and your right. they are from austrilia. i am awarding you 3 merit marks for correcting me. however i don't see how saying the police are from the Us and sting is from the Uk is relivant at other other than you trying to show your knowledge of old band. however, i will say this...did u ever try them spicy flavored monster munch? i mean did u not think they tasted great with bovril on toast? please, tell me your thoughts so we can elaborate more about pizza. :)

Men at worrk really posted Australia on the map in the early 80's with hits like: Down under, Who can it be now and Overkill. Business as usual and Cargo was to be their most selling smashes, but their final 1985 release: Two hearts is overlooked as well with the songs: Man with two hearts and Maria. I wonder if Man with two hearts was also on video?? Men at work and Mental as anything were Australias best band's!! Thanks again NZOZ!!!
