  2. Nice to see a recent long-form interview of @codysimpson , on Australia's #TripleJ ; going over the wild ride fame has taken him on:

    He seemed a little anxious at times for this (primarily) radio chat, but that was a daily routine for Cody in his 1.0 days as he travelled to different markets to often answer repetitive questions. He briefly goes into the upcoming #GuysAndDolls performances from Sydney Harbour, plus future music plans, including visiting LA.

  3. #TripleJ are playing songs 200-101 of their #Hottest100 countdown now, and another one of our votes has turned up at 184 (fun video too) youtu.be/sYySr4E7kLg #StandAtlantic #Polaris

  4. The Herd did a cover version of Redgum's I Was Only 19 the year after I was introduced to the original in English. It was for Triple J's Like a Version and is well worth a listen youtube.com/watch?v=0yfuR5b-hB

  5. Weeee! When Youtube serves up something that makes you stop and listen to it in full 3 times in a row!

    Ziggy Ramo covers Lauryn Hill 'Doo Wop (That Thing)' Ft. Christine Anu for Like A Version

    His lyrics in the 2nd verse are fire!

  6. This one's a new one for me: The Herd covered Redgum's I Was Only 19. Wow. They say it's a cliche to say that a Hottest 100 gave you goosebumps, but this one did it for me. youtube.com/watch?v=0yfuR5b-hB

  7. It's #NAIDOCWeek !

    At work we're keeping it fairly simple; sharing information about the history of NAIDOC and telling people how they can get involved. We're also having a fun online quiz on Friday during lunch to compete with our colleagues to see how much we know about the history of NAIDOC.

    As a music fan, I've found myself listening to more #FirstNations music as a way to connect with the traditional owners of the land.

    Some of my picks:

    'Nyaaringu' by Miiesha might be a few years old but is still a great album that I soaked up late last week - open.spotify.com/album/4FPYLkP

    And GLVES is a fantastic artist who has released a collection of well-produced singles over the last few years; she's going from strength to strength - open.spotify.com/artist/7wRaOh

    And every now and then I'll skim through past episodes of Blak Out on #TripleJ to find new artists - hearing it in a radio show context adds an extra layer to the stories that First Nations cultures often include in their music - abc.net.au/triplej/programs/bl

  8. Completing the holy trinity of ageing:

    As I’m 42, this is clearly an insight into #TheMeaningOfLife
