Who Can It Be Now & Down Under, Men at Work, Borgata Event Center, Borgata Casino, Atlantic City, New Jersey, August 19th, 2022, Sirius XM 80s on 8 Working Class Dog North American Tour
In the 80’s, I played Alto and Tenor Sax in high school. I always tried to play along with this song, INXS, Oingo Boingo, the specials and the English beat. Never had the chops. This girl is fucking amazing. Well done. 80’s bands had saxophone 🎷
Colin James Hay, for me, his is one of the best ever singer /songwriter ever since my youth.....!!!!!!! Now, I'm 63 years old and i love him and his songs forever and ever......!!!!! Thank you Colin, we will never get old...........!!!!!!!!!! :-)
For anyone wondering, the AMAZING Scheila Gonzalez is who plays sax/flute/keys in the band. She is scary good... I've seen her about a dozen times over the years playing in Dweezil Zappa's tribute band to Frank. She plays some of the most insane instrumental parts, is a fantastic singer, and is def a fan-fav among DZ fans... always gets the biggest ovations at Zappa shows. It's great to see her do so well in other projects. Scheila is a real talent!
Yes!!!! I've seen her at D Zappa shows, and considering F Zappas amazing talent for composing extremely hard compositions she always has it on point. Amazing shows. Dweezil is so much like his dad. Imagine being a teenager in that house lol.
This brought me to tears with the memories of listening to these songs in my youth during long hot Aussie summers. Colin's voice still amazing as ever.
Que saudade linda meu Deus do céu ❤❤❤❤... Anos 80melhor época da música mundial de todos os tempos!!! O PLANETA INTEIRO agradece pelos belos cantor e compositor e músicas dos anos 80!!!
@@Gruuvin1 thanks for pointing out facts! it’s a trip to me how these people always trying to say these bands and performers after 40 years sound exactly the same, these bands and singers don’t sound as good as they did 40 years ago or 30 years ago
@@sambell385 Most cannot do it at the same level any more... It is natural to loose a bit over the years. I did notice that the singer from The Cure has somehow managed to stay spot on. Really impressive... look up a few modern live videos. He does not miss a note, ever.
Esta canción la escuchaba en mi adolescencia cuando estaba en el colegio, hoy tengo 54 años, y soy fan de Colin Hay además su esposa es Peruana como yo.
Colin Hay and his music are both timeless. You can sing his songs word for word even after all these years because his songs tell a story. His style of music and unique instrumentation was unheard off when the first Men at Work album came out, but they took the US by storm. It is a joy to see him still out playing and sounding every bit as good as he did back in the early 80's. Thank you for sharing a great video. I couldn't love this band more.
@@craigbmm4675 I'll bet it was an awesome show. I found some you tube stuff where he was in Ringo Starrs allstar band. He still has it after all these years!
I always just immediately thought of ‘Land down under’ when thinking of Men at Work, but last year I delved a bit deeper and realised just what a genius this guy is! Personally I think ‘Overkill’ is one of the greatest songs ever written! 👍🏻
Business as Usual. Cargo. t Two Hearts. Might be the best three consecutive albums of the 80's. All three superb songwriting and serious understanding of pop rock of the time. Amazing times.
Very nice, takes me back to the early 80's when I was a young bloke in the Navy, dancing with every young lady in the clubs whose hand I could grab. Cheers 🍻 ✌️
My dad wouldn't bring me to a show because he was afraid of getting piss tested by the Navy. He didn't smoke but was afraid of second hand pot smoke. He probably got his smoking in while in Vietnam but I'd never even say without being there and I definitely wasn't.
I must have been living under a rock! I didn't know that Colin was born in Scotland, never heard his speaking voice, picked up on the accent immediately, even after all his time 'down under'.
@@canary_in_a_coalmineYes, still the same sound. Don't know what some people expect, it's only natural that a singers voice fills out and gets deeper over the years...no one expects Elton John to hit the really high notes anymore do they!
obrigado por existrirem men at work tenho 55 anos ouço voces desde meus 11 anos..... amo ate hoje suas musicas as unicas que ficou colocado no meu coração... SOU DO BRASIL....
i truly love this band so much, magnificent sounds to my ears! Thanks for giving all of us MEN AT WORK fans this amazing show!!! they are a taste that once you taste them, you will ALWAYS want more,,..... thank you, 🤗🥳😏🥰💯💚💚💚💚💚🤟
This is one of my favorites bands since I was in Mexico city where I born. I didn't know english by then, And then when I moved to California and learned the language I said this guy is more amazing than I thought. 80's never dies. Thank you Men at Work for those great memories. 👍
*Lo mejor y fantástico de todo esto es que en el Nuevo Grupo de Colin Hay está una Chapina Guatemalteca, dónde le está dando vida al Teclado y a la hermosísima Flauta, que es la que le da ese toque y ese sazón a Down Under, bella canción e himno de Australia. Canción inventada por ese grupo maravilloso y legendario como lo fue y sigue siendo "Men At Work, que ahora ahí está presente el beautifull País de la eterna primavera como lo es la Gran Guatemala, y que Viva por toda la Eternidad.🇬🇹 UwU*
This was one of the first cassette tapes I ever had back in the 80s. Got it from one of those newspaper ads where you buy 1 get 10 free 😂 Man I wore this tape out. Know all those songs by heart.
My cherished music is from an earlier time. Love 67 to 73 period the best..lol my formative years. But, coming around much later..men at work took a place in my heart. Great music.
Temazo!!!!Recuerdo año 90,viajando en el 505 por las calles de Marmol junto a una compañera de estudios a quien deseaba conquistar y escuchando Men at Work.Hermoso momento q jamas olvidaré. Por ese amor y por la musica q nos acompañó
Thanks for the upload. Saw them a couple of years ago at Epcot. Glad to see they all made it through the past couple of years, and still sound great! And everybody's right - Scheila is incredibly talented.
@@OrestisTrips No problem - his parents had a record shop in Kilwinning which is where he got the music bug - moved to "Down Under" when he was a teenager. Of course I won't know any of this because we have asked for an interview being a Scottish station but so far he has never said yes.
I knew Colin was born in my native Scotland but I’ve never heard him speak and haven’t seen him anywhere for 20 odd years , so I was pleasantly surprised to hear he’s still got his accent after all those years down under . Go Colin 👍🏴
It is my teenage memory back in the 80's with that Men At Work band famous here in France, listening so many excellent music, is it still. Excellent guitar choice in that video
I never noticed just how awesome the chords that Colin does are. There are the basic ones of course but you can hear the suspended or augmented ones during certain points in the song. Amazing!
I watched a video on his RU-vid channel where he explains how to play the acoustic version of ‘Overkill’. I’ve played guitar for 25 years and I still found it a struggle!
There's probably half a dozen ways to play these chords but he's trying to get that twangy reggae-ish vibe and tone so he's using the capo on the 2nd fret and playing a little higher so he can get those toppy up-strokes. The man obviously knows his Bob Marley. A seriously underrated musician, Colin Hay. I've seen him a number of times as a solo act in the last 20 years and always an inspiring performance.
