I live by the words of this song, everyone who has had or are having difficulties in thier lives should listen to the words. Also just love Jimmy riding on the horse, so wild and free!

This guy is a Legend.

Pure Aussie Grit always keep rocking Jimmy

When Jimmy made this classic video, he did all his own stunts, one of which was strapped to an actual moving train. Mushroom Records insured him for a cool one million bucks for all his efforts!!!!

This song is immortal... sad my mate wasn't.... a brain tumor got him in 2010.he fought on bravely and was everything this song represents.... some thought he didn't conform to their expectations... others looked down on him for associating with outlaws but he was a better person than most... there was a lot of big men with broken hearts shedding tears at his funeral... may not have been respected by some... but sure was respected and appreciated by those who knew him well.... we all still miss him.... this one's for you Johnno.

As cheesy as it sounds, on the few occasions of my life where I have it rock bottom, this song and it's simple lyricks have given me inspiration and pulled me through some dark shit.

We were listening to this in 1987 on our most prized twin deck ghetto blaster. This song was the best on an album. Takes me back to a fun loving 12 year old. Great song. Great memories.

One thing I have noticed is that one of the reasons 80s music was more lively and catchy is because they actually opened their mouths wide and belted out the voices right from the depths of their hearts. Today's singers sound like they injected themselves with something and tried to sing just before passing out. They barely open their mouths and sound absolutely dead, and thats also one of the reasons they all sound the same.

Mám rád ten jeho styl hudby............ správný rocker ,super hlas,perfektní skladba,krásný solo..............,jsem rád že jsem po dlouhý době zase našel tenhle klip s dobrou hudbou..........

Jimmy is the real M'COY and the powerful voice has set him above any other Rocker!

At 63 still listen to this song on my down days....

Jimmy Barns Represented Australian with Aussie Grit songs..loved it!

Definitely one of his best songs🙌👍

Powerful song. Love it

Always for the underdog! That’s why I’ve always been his biggest supporter, a voice for the frontiers! ❤️

I'm glad to see that 2RAR has come so far! Second to no Bastard!

That voice is so real, that's jimmy✌️👍

❤❤❤ I grew up with this and still love it. Brings back soo many memories.

In November 2018, Jimmy wrote "stand your ground" on a photo of him and me taken at the meet and greet in the Maldives two months earlier. At the time I was locked in a Family Court battle where my violent ex was demanding half my property. I was also self representing in court. I took that photo with me each time I went to court and I sat it on the table in front of me. Those 3 words written on a 6 x 4 photo empowered me and gave me so much strength. The matter eventually settled out of court. I had to pay the violent person far too much #violencepays but at least I didn't lose my home.

Easily his best song.Awesome lead guitar work to match

So proud of David for helping his dad out … brings tears every time I listen coming from a old girl now but never met her dad. Bless 🙏🏻

Always good to hear Jimmy❤️

Love this song .

Barnsey belts out another classic. One of my favourites.

This is amazing this song ,sung straight from jimmys heart, to our hearts ,I remember getting sober one year to this song ,I would think sobriety wasn't no second chance ,just first !! Love Jimmy Barnes x

Saw jimmy in concert at the royal Melbourne show last week. Absolutely loved it. He finished with high voltage. Still got it.

Man i gotta tell ya ol' Jimmy Barnes puts down some kickin' ass killer music, i really like his style he really seems to be trying to give the public a 200% show.

Still a legend always will be

One of the greatest rock voices ever. Should have achieved more....

What a unique voice. Deserved to be big

I love jimmy Barnes ! He's unreal . He's unreal to see live 😂

Mal Eastic is too often under appreciated, he nailed giving Barnesy a and the song a performance of his own.

Jimmy Barnes top bloke, I did notice a blooper the guy doing the guitar solo was strumming a Steinberg bass! hah

One of the great rock and roll singers

This one's for you mum ♥️

No there ain't no " Second Prize " only " First Prize " Jimmy Barnes. Have been a fan since the " Cold Chisel " days, and forever will be ! ******

Thank You Jimmy!

guitar playing in this is beatiful, I love it.

Great song from a great time-Miss them days badly!

😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍. JIMMY THE LEGAND ... !!! 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹

One of OZ's very underated guitarist and when this was released it blew me away with his work and yeah he was in his prime on this and went and saw him and Barnesy at the Playroom on the Gold Coast a month or two later .....WOW

Baaarrrnnneeeesssseeeyyyyy!!!!!! Ooooohhhh yeeeaaahhhhhh!!!!

love this guys voice and love this song

why isnt jimmy barnes more recognized?? my mom doesnt even know who he is, so glad i found him nothing but straight up soul rock, and the voice on this dude is crazy

One of his best solo tracks.

High five, one King

I remember first seeing jimmy barnes live at the overflow in floreat .. 1985 .and then 1988 at the then PERTH ENTERTAINMENT CENTRE . what a great live show.. full of raw energy .. live music at its best

Great song.😎🇿🇦

All round top song 👍🏻

One of my all time favourite songs

I saw Mal Eastwick on the gold coast in the 80's and he rocked hard, on the "Working class man" album I think his guitar playing is second to none. So underated, and oh yeah Barnsey was ok.

Love this song!!! This was Jimmy going solo after Cold Chisel - how good is Mal Eastick on guitar - AMAZING!!!!!!!!!

The best in nearly,40 odd years.

Encore 💖

got this cd playin' right now Love it!!

Love this do much!! My anthem!!

1 of my fav artists of all time

Good NSW trains there. Also great shot of 4201. Great song also

Why didn't this go global??????????

For some reason i listen to this song when a woman im in love with doesnt feel the same way about me. I can't just be her friend. Need to move forward and forget about the friendship, because there aint no second prize. Might not be the meaning Jimmy had when he wrote the song but its helping me forge ahead and get on with life.

Timeless.

One must be true to oneself. If not, opportunities and time itself are wasted... There is no second prize. That's what this song is about. It is not a sports song. It is a song about life (and love). Open your ears.

Classic i love it.

Good NSW trains there. Also great shot of 4201. Great song also 00:08 YESS!! THE MIGHTY CANDY LIVERY!!!! Classic Aussie rock.

After reading his book I understand what second prize means. You are an Auzzie inspiration and of my childhood growing up. My Dad knew your family.
