Taken from only Showaddywaddy's second appearance on TV, the band perform Bony Moronie on the New Faces 'All Winners Final'. The track would later feature on their debut album released a year later.

Showaddywaddy came second in the Final and although the band were already professional musicians and signed up to Bell Records, this TV exposure really launched them to the UK public at large.

Emos from the fifth dimension

The Art of Falling Apart

Remember Boys - Cole Swindell (Cover)

One of my favourite Sydney pub bands of the 80's played this. It had the best intro! It's about alcoholism in case you're wondering what the 'nips' are!

Nips are Gettin' Bigger (Tipsy Dance Version)(Mental as Anything Cover)

The first (1980) single released by the Flowers (later to become Icehouse). Iva Davies was like Australia's Bowie+Numan). This is my all-synth version. The original seemed to mostly use the synth for bell noises! The video was shot in a car park very close to where my first Wedding reception was held. :-)

Can't Help Myself (Synthetic Petals Version) (Icehouse cover)

My 100% synthetic version of the 1978 hit by the NZ band. Enjoy the quirk.

When my baby is walking down the street
I see red, I see red, I see red
How can someone wicked walk around free
I see red, I see red, I see red
I see red, oh I see red
You gave me such precious hours
What to do without you
Squeezed me out of your life
Down the drain like molten toothpaste
I feel used and spat out
Poor old me
When my baby is walking down the street
I see red, I see red, I see red
How can someone wicked walk around free
I see red, I see red, I see red
I see red, oh I see red
I am fed up with crying
My despair is drying
Draining into rage day by day
Green before you met me
In the pink when you let me love you
I was blue when you let me down
Black and blue
When my baby is walking down the street
I see red, I see red, I see red
How can someone wicked walk around free
I see red, I see red, I see red
I see red, oh I see red

I See Red (720nm Version) (Split Enz cover)

My all-synth version of the 1985 hit (Australian #1). Gonna keep my body tight.

Out of Mind Out of Sight (Dark Energy Version) (Models cover)

My all-synth version of the 1985 hit. Possibly the tamest Mentals song ever, still catchy. Come up to my place, baby.

Live it Up (Half-Life Version) (Mental As Anything cover)

My all-synth cover of the 1981 hit. Actually one of my favourite songs, I just love the crazy childish naivety.

If You Leave Me, Can I Come Too? (Moonbase Alpha Version) (Mental as Anything cover)

My all-synth version of the 1985 hit. There’s a room where the light won’t find you.

Everybody Wants to Rule the World (Ozymandias Version) (Tears for Fears cover)

My all-synth version of the 1981 track. I’m the dandy highwayman who you’re too scared to mention.

Stand and Deliver (Proton Channel Version) (Adam and the Ants cover)

My all-synth version of the Captain’s 1982 hit. It went bang, I said shut up. It went bang, I said rap up. Well I’m aware that the guy must do his work, but the piledriver man drove me berserk.

Wot! (Oleic Version) (Captain Sensible cover)

My all-synth version of the 1985 track. You want to Diva a deduction you want to do what they do.

Perfect Way (Grav Assist Version) (Scritti Politti cover)

My all-synth version of the 1985 track. Hey, it was a challenge I set myself, and I like to do messed-up stuff. Jimmy played harmonica in the pub where I was born...

Sally MacLennane (Distillate Version) (The Pogues cover)

My all-synth version of the 1982 hit. Well, it was really big here in Australia! It's still recognised as iconic by many people, even if we're still coming to grips with the issues it's about. Sorry if you don't like my version, but I like to experiment, I think it's still got the same essence.

Out here nothin' changes, not in a hurry anyway
You feel the endlessness with the comin' of the light o' day
We're talkin' about a chosen place
You wouldn't sell it in a marketplace, well
Well just a minute now
Standing on solid rock
Standing on sacred ground
Living o-on borrowed ti-i-i-ime
And the winds of change are blowin' down the line
Right down the line
Round about the dawn o' time, When dreamin' all began
A crowd o' people came
Well they were looking for their promised land
Were running from the heart of darkness
Searching for the heart o' light
Well it was their paradise
But they were standin' on - solid rock
Standing o-on sacred grou-ound
Living o-on borrowed ti-i-i-ime
And the winds of change were blowing cold that night
Oh
They were standin' on the shore one day, Saw the white sails in the sun
Wasn't long before they felt the sting, white man, white law, white gun
Don't tell me that it's justified, 'cause somewhere, someone lied
Yeah well someone lied, someone lied, genocide
Well someone lied, oh, ahh
And now you're standing on - solid rock
Standing o-on a sacred grou-ound
Living o-on borrowed ti-i-i-ime
And the winds of change are blowin' down the li-ine
Solid rock, Standing on sacred ground
Living o-on borrowed ti-i-i-ime
And the winds of change are blowing down the line
Solid rock, Standing o-on sacred grou-ound
Living o-on borrowed ti-i-i-ime
And the winds of change are blowing down the line
Oh-oh-oh no, NO-O

Solid Rock (Monolithic Version) (Goanna cover)

THE ANGELS ARE TALKING TO US ALL THE TIME
song by Jen Waters
(vocal by Jen Waters)

VERSE:	
Listen for the baby’s cry
And the sound of a rushing wind
Listen for the lightning strike
And the sudden song within
You might hear more than before
You might hear everything

CHORUS:	
The angels are talking to us all the time 
Are you listening? 
The angels are talking to us all the time 
Are you listening? 
Telling us we’re not alone
Reminding us we’ll soon be home

VERSE:	
Listen for the screaming man
And the breaking of shattered glass
Listen for the silent night
And a stillness that will last
You might hear God call your name
You might hear reasons why

CHORUS:	
The angels are talking to us all the time 
Are you listening? 
The angels are talking to us all the time 
Are you listening? 
Telling us we’re not alone
Reminding us we’ll soon be home

BRIDGE:	
Unquestioning isn’t the same as just plain dumb
Fearful? Sure ‘cause things are scary
But there are very many mysteries and then some

CHORUS:	
The angels are talking to us all the time 
Are you listening? 
The angels are talking to us all the time 
Are you listening? 
Telling us we’re not alone
Reminding us we’ll soon be home

The angels are talking to us all the time
Are you listening?
The angels are talking to us all the time 
Are you listening?

TAG: 
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Amen

THE ANGELS ARE TALKING TO US ALL THE TIME (featuring Jen Waters)

Josh Mooney sat in for the General Public show today - two hours of blissed-out and soulful business from the likes of Boz Scaggs, Micheal Boothman and Guillamino. Funk, soul, disco and rare groove slections the whole way.

General Public w/ Josh Mooney - September 2020

Gene On Earth - Quiche Lorraine (LD006)

This remix was done mainly for Australia day... The original from GANGgajang is an old fav of mine... hope you like it. I need to put some variation into the bassline beat as it is too monotonous ... Brettski

Sounds of Then (This is Australia) - GANGgajang Brettski remix

I make obnoxious synth covers of previously fine songs. All done with Korg Gadget.

If You Leave Me, Can I Come Too? (Moonbase Alpha Version) (Mental as Anything cover)
