A magnificent true story of how one old man fought for his people and land. I love that this song can unify so many people, whoever sings it. Respect to Kevin and Paul for the words.
i luv this song..... my lil grade 3,4,5 Martu kids class are singing this song for NAIDOC week.... its moving when you see them singing their lil hearts out.....
A darling man - love him. Thank god he's getting thru' all his challenges so positively. Enormous thank you to all those supporting and encouraging him to keep performing.
My brother just shared this with me. So touching..could listen all day. In actual fact I might just hum it....from little things big things grow.....atb Mark
I am moved by the story. I knew some people from Australia who would tell me about The Walkabout. I was taken then and this brought the memories back. Thanks Archie. You're alright with me.
LOVE THE DIFFRENT CONTRASTS BETWEEN THEIR VOICES, this song pulls at all the rigth heart strings , LOVE THIS SONG WELL DONE TOO ARCHIE ROACH AND SARA STORER
Great song, but the actual story it comes from is simply one of the best How To's in peaceful demonstration. Uncle must have been a very clever old man.
Yep a demonstration that lasted 9 long years. Vincent Lingiari and the Gurindji people were very patient. Adelaide's BLM protest in 2020 was a very peaceful demonstration with no reports from police. We know how to have peaceful demonstrations.
Archie Roach ..you might happen to be the most spirited person I feel...so will be Sara by your very side...*most* connected with our serpent..yours...
