hello, i write this post from spain and my english is not good.
i have a song recorded from a tape since 1993 but i don ´t know who the hell are them! can you help me?
i think they are australian...

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=I8SYJNJH


and these are the lyrics....

you left on a later train
i saw you
i called your name
there's a lot of the time ahead
and a whole new life
we had such good times together
we fought forever
they all thought we were brothers
we didn't care

and we live in different ways
just too many loose absent friends

how i want you home again
won't you ride back home
how i want you home again

it's funny how when you look back
it's always the road so sad
it's funny how we can't see that
it's human right
maybe we're scared to turn back
to live on, and move on
maybe we even have some right
to cover up tracks

and we live in different ways
just too many loose absent friends

how i want you home again
won't you ride back home
how i want you home again

Agree with above, I'm not clicking any link that says 'megaupload'.

Joe, where are you.

I listened to the song and I have no idea who the band or singer are. Neither sound familiar to me.

The lyrics you posted here are not quite right and googling anything about this song only brings up forum threads similar to this one. I noticed in one of the other websites that someone had done a pretty good (thought still not totally accurate) translation of the lyrics.

You say you have this song on tape. What is this tape? Is it a compilation made by you recording songs from the radio? Did someone else do it and you got their tape? Is it a branded tape of a collection of songs, like 80's Hits Vol 2 or something?
A clue to this song could be what other songs are also on the tape.

points for persistence man, you've been all over the web for months asking for this. some forum reckons you might be a shill, but if that's the case no one can find the song you are supposedly promoting so you're doing a lousy job of it.

try Shazam

or ask at the Triple J forum which is the densest concentration of aussie music nerds you'll find. they found the song below based on 1 line of lyrics for me (which is awesome so i'm posting it)


good luck

Yeppers ...... you are right disarray. Read the lyrics and listen to the music. Doesn't add up. But then HEY ....... that's why we have James Reyne.

You been hanging with the pound hanging mark my head,
Sounds like my silk purse hound my head,
Some soup gets lifted by the (indecipherable) hammock head,
You been slamming in the round my bed.

YEAH BABY !!!!!!!!! HE ROCKS !!!!!!!!!!

Same as the song lyrics that were posted ARE NOTHING LIKE THE SONG YOU POSTED !

Hi quinny!
I recorded the song in 1993 from a radio program in a local radio from Madrid.
Then I made a compilation with several recordings from the same program (the Jam, Hoodoogurus, The Only Ones, Sugar or Superchunk..)
As you see different music from different years. Many of them are new wave, groups such as The Romantics, The Records, The Buzzcocks...
I think this group is not australian. Maybe british?
What I need is a GOOD TRANSLATION to find them.
Thanks a lot!!
