Hunters & Collectors - When The River Runs Dry (Official Video) 

When this was released the music scene in Melbourne, Australia was absolutely fizzing! So many great bands that were absolutely dynamic and bloody exciting to watch live! Real Music with real musicians....god it was good to be there (I'm 65, worked at Dan Murphys in Chapel St Prahran during the Golden years) and still rocking hard...

This song, Paul Kelly Dumb Things, Midnight Oil Beds are Burning, and Great Southern Land, all part of my best playlist, have been for years…and I’m just an old jerk from dead center USA. Great music knows no time or location.

The Hunter's music could only be described as 'Power Rock'. Just sitting in my car driving down the coast I could never sit still listening to them. Here I am almost 40 years on from the release of 'Talking to a Stranger ' and I still jump around the room to their music. I'll probably give myself a heart attack one day. 😂

Value Planet Earth!!!

what a break band and what a great time it was to be alive

This was made in 1989. This song has only gained definition over time.

still after all these years brill...I saw them here in Adelaide back then, fucking epic live show

When The River Runs Dry (sung by "Hunters & Collectors") Good news for beautiful people Watching the world go by Make love in the middle of a warzone Hey, ya never gonna die Don't rock the boat, keep your head down Just another fool in the crowd Everybody knows, you can be a winner Cmon, shout it out loud On the fat of the land I been living Now it's only a matter of time Sooner or later, you open your eyes And return to the scene of the crime Dig deep at the top of the heap Now you've bitten off the hand that feeds you You got nothin' but your soul to sell You got nothin' When the river runs dry You will return to the scene of the crime When the river runs dry Salvation will rain on you one last time When the river runs dry You got the power I got the money Another million miles to run I'd cry, cry for the future But I wouldn't get anything done Relax, abandon ship Turn your back on Mother Nature Blind luck, destiny, do me a favour When the river runs dry You will return to the scene of the crime When the river runs dry Salvation will rain on you one more time When the river runs.. dry Good news for beautiful people Watching the world go by Make love in the middle of a war zone All of God's children Never gonna die You will return to the scene of the crime When the river runs dry Salvation will rain on you one more time When the river runs dry You will return to the scene of the crime When the river runs dry Salvation will rain on you one more time When the river runs I'm going home to where the river runs dry Salvation will rain on you one more time It's only a matter of time Only a matter of time When the river runs dry

Simple the best band in Australia

Go Boys! Great Band, Great song!

I've always wondered why there are 2 versions of this clip. Not big differences but substantial to the story line.

grouse song plus 1989 is also my year of birth and also the 1989 AFL Grand Final too Geelong VS Hawthorn.

If I had to pick a song to sum up Aussie rock in the 80's this song would do nicely.
