Day 14- A song with no chorus that's not Bohemian Rhapsody

"How to make Gravy" - Paul Kelly

A large percentage of the Australian population knows this song which is about being apart at Christmas. Paul is a great storyteller - in this song the narrative is about a guy stuck in gaol at Christmas, writing a letter home. This video puts the original song into a COVID-era context.

It's quite something being in a concert crowd belting out every word of this classic.

Nice take off on the Bad Brains.

My daughter took me out for breakfast and we went past the Polish American hall where I promoted a show with Agnostic Front, Last Rites and The Russian Meatsquats in OCT 1985.

Oh! My Papa

 

[badjanus]

This song has the ability to stop me in my tracks and remember my dad. Now with a daughter, it has taken on an additional poignancy.

An honourable mention to Every Father's and undoubtedly mothers wish..

Day 15: A song about dads or fatherhood

“Father’s Day” by Weddings Parties Anything. This was a huge hit in Australia- worth a listen. A divorced dad talks about trying to keep a connection with his kids and the relationship with his ex: it's nuanced and moving in a very difficult space.

What of the darling wife that once I had?
Well I'm pleased to say that she still talks to me
But I try not to think of what went wrong
'Cause if I say that I was right
She might say that she was right
And the only rights I care about are visiting rights

Father And Son - Yusuf

This song is so special to me . Ironically, I associate it with motherhood because it was my mom who used to sing it to me.
