Pre-order Paul's upcoming album 'Fever Longing Still' here - PaulKelly.lnk.to/feverlongingstill
From very early on in his career, Paul Kelly has been recognised as one of the most significant singer/songwriters in the Australia. Inspired initially by the likes of Bob Dylan, Hank Williams, Lou Reed and Ray Davies, Kelly's narrative song writing is infused with wry observations, bittersweet emotions and enormous appeal.
As well as issuing an enduring body of work with his own bands, Kelly has written film scores (Lantana and the Cannes 2006 highlight, Jindabyne), and produced albums for and written songs with some of Australia and New Zealand's finest artists.
Ahh memories of living in Victoria St 2 doors down from the Piccadilly sitting on my veranda listening to Paul play bc that night I couldn’t afford the cover charge 😊
All the memories from Christmas time I have as a child come rushing back to me every time I hear this song, holy shit, brings a tear to my eye. I heard this live when Paul Kelly toured with Niel Finn years ago, and i can tell you not one person in the crowd made a single noise until the song was finished. Truly an incredible song.
