Listned to this band all my life with my mother owning every album.

Cold Chisel have a lot of good songs, fair to say I like some of the their more upbeat songs

 

[footyfan1978]

This better not be as drawn out and as bad as Lingy top ten midfielders of this century.

Off the 1st Chisel album I bought, East. Still 1 of their best IMO.

Seen them live a few times, including Jimmy solo at a gig with his bro's band Swannee at the Waurn Ponds.


When The War is Over is 1 of Jimmy's fav songs and mine also.

Yeah like I said mine will be controversial, I really like some of their more "rockier" stuff which will become more evident as the countdown goes. I have another fan favourite coming up soon another that I know a lot of people would have top 3

Not sure what you class as 'rockier' but will look forward to seeing and hearing them, too many to choose from

Thanks to JB, the rougher voices appeal to me.

Stuff like Goodbye Astrid Goodbye and You Got Nothing I Want are examples of their rockier stuff

Astrid, yes. YGNIW, mm don't like.

Was in reply to the American BS.

 

[footyfan1978]

If Taipan or Merry Go Round not in here somewhere you are a fraud like Lingy.

Next big shock I think

21. Flame Trees - Twentieth Century - 1984

Okay, now you're just taking the piss. I managed to just forgive you for leaving When the War is Over out of the top ten but Flame Trees. Wow. Both top five IMHO.

 

[footyfan1978]

I'd probably have that one top 20 but not top 10.

Just goes to show how much people can differ on how much they like Cold Chisel songs.
