Right I'm off to the bevan eleven to rev me torana and shout OILS at passing strangers.  Not that being loved by torana driving no sleeved tosspots means it is any less than a great song.

Ok, I'm no Graphic Arts wonk, but I really question the artistic vision of this album cover.  It's like a bunch of people were sitting around a room and passing a dube around the size of a cuban. 

Graphic Artist 1:"So, whatta we gonna put on the cover?"
GA2: "It needs to be brown."
GA3: "No, not brown, orange."
GA4: "How about we mix the two colors.  It will then look like poop.  Poop is funny."
GA1: "Ya know what makes a lot of poop?  Cows."
GA3: "Yep, they do.  Let's put a cow on the cover."
GA2: "But that would take up too much space."
GA4: "We can just put a disembodied head of a cow on the cover.  That would work and wouldn't look silly at all."
All: "That's fugging genius!"

Excellent guitar licks—digs immediately into the head.

This is very solid.  Love it.  Midnight Oil sounds a bit like Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers on this tune...{#Cool}

Yes, this is a rare occurrence, but like a total eclipse of the sun, it can be predicted by watching for these signs:

And Jupiter aligns with Mars
