If I had to choose what I feel is the most beautiful song ever written, as well as the most beautiful collaboration and video… it would have to be this.

“When the British colonized Australia, they pushed the Aboriginals into the Desert Heart, where the average day time temps are as high as 45C in the Summer. That is 113F.”
“Life was hell, because the sands would swallow their homes while they were at work, because there is no bedrock for miles under the sands, and sands are continually shifting. It got so hot, they would come home, to find their beds had actually burst into flames from the heat. It gets so hot there, all you have to do is light a match, and the tree next to you would burst into flames.”
“That song was written at a time the Aboriginals were fighting to come back to their home lands. He wrote it to bring National Attention to the situation.”
