Here's the the latest film clip from the great B2M (Bathurst to Melville). 'Parlingarri' is the first single off their debut album 'Home' (available on iTunes or at skinnyfishmusic.com.au/shop/) Facebook: / 244859678967608
I do enjoy songs sung partly in the local aboriginal language and partly in English. Singing in the local language engenders pride among both the tribal members and also the outsiders who are exposed to it. And the English makes the theme of the song accessible to a wider audience.
i have been a big fan of Deep Forest.. some of you have to look them up..but these trditional voices is what made deep forrest great and this band.. is a begining of something very.. very beautiful.
I don't know what it is...and I know its a song to celebrate...but for some reason the intro made me teary. I love how they use different styles of singing to connect the different generations of their audience
Australia needs more learning in aboriginal culture At school I learn more about the Spanish then those who first walked the lands I call home Only the other day I learn the suburb I live in in north Brisbane Queensland comes from a aboriginal word witch translates to place of the green wattle
