Cold Chisel - Flame Trees [Last Stand] 

I'm a 67 year old Alaskan ice road trucker. I just stumbled across you guys on RU-vid. What a great sound Whata treasure. You guys are keep playing.

My youth right here. As an adult this hits me hard in the heart. It gets me thinking of friends gone too soon, one in particular a country lad who died in a car crash in 1990 at 19 years of age. RIP Michael.

I met Jimmy in Thailand many years ago, he and his beautiful wife were just lovely.

My very favourite. It is just so Australian in it's lyrics. It may be about returning to Grafton but all of OZ can claim this song in their heart.

Jimmy and the boys at their all time best right here

Incredible song, with the greatest bridge ever.

How good were the late70's and into 80's in Oz...a great time 😊

I used listened to this song when I was in Australia. There were so many good songs from Cold Chisel.

As a young Aussie apprentice i loved the joe camalerie and the black sorrows. NZ and Australia produced some amazing music in the 80s and 90s

I lived in Australia for a while, this song brings me so many good memories

Who's listening in 2024? Great songs we grew up with.

🚬😎 should be in the rocknroll hall of fame or the country and western music hall of fame . .. both

One of the best

Great performance, love it, it made my eyes leak a little.

I and my brother and our best mate saw them at Bathurst NSW in 1983 . One of the best concerts I have ever seen .

Bloody good old Days miss them so much

Best live version of this song period! Any version for that matter, brilliant.

Greatest song ever.

Still one of my favorites😊

One of my favourite songs!

Jimmy is an absolute LEGEND.........

those were the days so wonderful😊❤😂🎉😢

There was nothing like a chisel show👍. Few years ago randomly ran into mossy at the twin servos on the highway near the central coast. Tells me “I’m late for a sound check.”😂. Had his station wagon with like a million guitars in it…….

Good old days!!70s n 80s fun times!!❤

Those were the Days . Thanks for the memories Jimmy My Brother

Bloody beautiful piece of history. I lived in Grafton for two decades.

Born in 65 Chisel WILL be played at my Funeral !

My father Frank told me when you realised working class man that is the smartest man in Australia my father was a steel worker God bless always australia ❤

One of jimmy's best songs

So many great songs produced by Chisel. I’ve heard Jimmy say this one was his favourite ❤️ If only the Twentieth Century album was not the last… This song always makes me reminisce, transported back to times with mates.

Never really gave this chisel song too much mind on its own but SEEING Jimmy Barnes singing it makes it special, love cold chisel best Aussie band

Imagine the boys right there., trying this song out for the first time. Probably have no idea how amazing the song will become.

Such a beautiful Aussie classic!! 😎✌❤

Absolutely amazing and beautiful, your music and lyrics have been a huge part of my life. An amazing performance. Thank you for sharing.

I was born in ‘73. This is my favourite Cold Chisel song!!!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

How can his daughter be so young? These were my teenage/early 20's classics. Widowed now but we had fame trees. I miss him so bad, it hurts so much ❤

Luva Jimmy. Flame tree is my favourite song.😢love all your music but this song is very special to me

I think this is the best version of Flame Trees I have seen 😊

Damn what a voice

This is my favourite song it takes me back to a certain time every time i hear it

Saw Jimmy live at the Coogge Bay Pub, 1996 if I recall correctly. I had industry supplied V.I.P. tickets...sat upstairs got free booze and snacks...one of the best concerts I ever went to, it was a charity event due to Doug Mulray having terminal cancer. Doug was one of our legends too. His brother got on stage and sang some of Douggies songs, he sounded just like his brother...talk about cry...it was so bitter-sweet. I still tear up when I remember Doug as he was that night. We had..still have some of the best talent in the world.

Greetings good people and music lovers 😊 This is one of the best songs by Jimmy Barnes. I listened to it for the first time while living in my home country where I had reluctantly returned to after growing up in Sydney. My hat off to Jimmy Barnes such an amazing person singer and songwriter!!!🙏🏻

Makes me miss the country we grew up in. The great Australia that was before the pollies fucked the joint

What a great song. Brings back memories. Truly miss Australia.

Finally, who needs that sentimental bullshit, can be played, the 80's and 90's were magic for me in Melbourne, almost killed me, I'll never give it back

First song I heard of yours Jimmy. Cold Chizel. Loved flame tree when came out. Awesome song will always be my favourite ❤song ever

The very first public performance of this Cold Chisel classic prior to the April ‘84 release of their 20th Century album some five months later. It certainly passed the pub test here and the Steve Prestwich/ Don Walker penned Chisel standard went on to become one of their best known radio songs.

Australian classic my fav song and cold chisel jimmy barnes at his best

Aussie classic 😇

I don't think anyone can sing this song like Jimmy does.

I went to Sydney in 2011 and visited Bondi Beach, the Opera House, Kings Cross, took the train, drove up to Katoomba to see the 3 sisters and had a blast. I'd love to come back and visit Darwin, as well as the Gold Coast.

Great and original Jimmy - I like him more and more...

Great lyric, rhythym and pure R&R performance this. Barnes was the quintessential hard rocker. Could wail with the best of them, no Perry Como this bloke!

Barnsie .. get well ... epic

Luva Jimmy this song is special to me ❤

Jimmy looks back at Don like he is saying thanks for these awesome lyrics I am singing

This is beautiful Jimmy

Beaut goodie oldie this 1 ❤

cant wait for what I still call Clipsal to see Cold Chisel

❤❤❤

Gold

👍👍👍

The best

2024 and this still brings me to tears - a time that will never be again, it's in my memory and heart. Who needs that sentimental bullshit anyway? I need it because I'm barely here, the suicide is calling for me

nailed it,,,,,on ya Jimmy

Wow Jims voice was so much better back then#

As good as this performance is, the studio version is way better.👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

I was way too cool to like Cold Chisel when I was young, until someone bought me a ticket to the Last Stand concert in Brisbane. I was a fool until then.

lads are sweaty.

udaman Jimmy...nz

😘

A true blue nose

🎉❤ Fanfuckingtastic ❤🎉

I wish I could go back to those times, i would do anything to be back there . Jimmy and Chisels were always there, when others were not ..

I grew up in Melbourne. I haven't been back to Australia since 2016. Australia isn't Australia anymore
