My recording attempt of the beautiful song by Jeff Wayne & Justin Hayward's Forever Autumn. Everything you hear is played and sung by me!

Forever Autumn [Jeff Wayne & Justin Hayward - War Of The Worlds Tribute]

There’s a river winding softly through a city lined with gold
Where the Queensland nights hold stories that the south has never told
From the verandahs dripping history to the skyline’s gentle glow
There’s a magic in the evening that only Brisbane seems to know

Chase the sunset out in Toowong, hit the Valley after dark
Where the jazz clubs and the wine bars leave a velvet-smooth remark
Every laneway has a secret, every corner’s got a taste
Yeah, we move with quiet rhythm — never hurry, never race

Brisbane does it better, baby
With a style that’s all our own
Brisbane does it better, maybe 
That’s why I’m never leavin’ home

From the river to the skyline
Every moment feels just right
Yeah, Brisbane does it better
Especially at night
Brisbane does it better
Brisbane does it better

You can keep your Sydney Harbour, keep your Melbourne coffee dreams
We’ve got subtropical sunsets with an evergreen esteem
There’s a class beneath the casual, a little fire in the breeze
We wrote the rules on how to live — then rewrote them with ease

Brisbane does it better, baby
With a style that’s all our own
Brisbane does it better, maybe 
That’s why I’m never leavin’ home

From the river to the skyline
Every moment feels just right
Yeah, Brisbane does it better
Especially at night
Brisbane does it better
Brisbane does it better

Some towns try too hard to charm you
Some got nothin’ left to prove
But Brisbane just wraps around you
With that warm, sophisticated groove

When the Story Bridge is glowing
And the night is young and free
There’s no other place I’m goin’
This town's where I'm meant to be

From the Powerhouse in twilight to the lights on Eagle Street
From New Farm mornings waking slow to nights that feel complete
We got heritage and progress walkin’ hand in hand as one
We’re the city built for everything — but we make it look like fun

Brisbane does it better, baby
With a style that’s all our own
Brisbane does it better, maybe
That’s why I’m never leavin’ home

From the river to the skyline
Every moment feels just right
Yeah, Brisbane does it better
Especially at night

Brisbane does it better, darling
When the jacarandas bloom
Brisbane does it better, callin’
Every heart back to this room

We’re the secret that the world
Is only startin’ to discover
Yeah, Brisbane does it better
And I’m Brisbane’s faithful lover

(Brisbane… Brisbane…)
Does it better every time
(Brisbane… Brisbane…)
(Brisbane… Brisbane…)
This sophisticated city's mine
(Brisbane… Brisbane…)
Brisbane does it better
Brisbane does it better
Yeah, Brisbane does it better
