Baby, the wind is blowin'
So rest your weary head here on my knee
There's no way we're getting on the ocean
So fuck everything else and let's just be

Indi pup well she just found a chicken
And we found us sweet place to rest our feet
With honeybird there ain't nothin' missin'
Hazel eyes, the most beautiful red I've seen

This is home
Home

Spendin' time here in these islands
It seems the whole wide world has gone crazy
So take my hand, let's walk this together
Teach our little man the best we see

Coz baby, the wind is blowing
And there ain't no other place I'd rather be
And the wind owes me nothing
But it's blown me here with you

And it can blow until it's through

Coz baby, the wind is blowing
And there ain't no other place I'd rather be

This is home

Xavier Rudd has always seemed a little too earnest for my taste, but this track is fantastic!

Obviously don't ruin your RP groove now but if you haven't seen the film clip with a beautiful young woman dancing on a skateboard in equally beautiful scenery on the Australian coast, you should. The two blend incredibly well. As an Aussie expat I adore the way he works the birdsong into his music.



Was well worth it, thank you! Keep the love coming, RP
Every breath you take ?
Police ? :-)

Bet you end up watching it more than once!





I should have looked. I said essentially the same thing this morning.

And this is why I love the Radio Paradise community. Thank you, beautiful human, whoever and wherever you are.
I think the whistling is in fact the warble of our favourite Australian magpie - or a sample of...
Aussie maggie
Adding to my next Valentine's day Mix Playlist for Spouse, haven't even got to the whistling yet...got there, you mean the two seconds at the end of the song? sheesh

Xavier could skip the whistling, but it such a small portion of the tune, has no impact on my rating of 7.
7 before the whistling.  A close-minded 6 until they remove it. 
Really nice for me. An 8 for now.
Nice!
