Brilliant song, not the rubbish that our kids have grown up with.

Remarkable parallel about a once mighty force in decline, having a dead-cat bounce.

Port Adelaide sing "Tear us apart" before a match. The MFC could serenade this.

To those who are genuinely hurt by this, toughen up. To those who fail to see the relevance, enjoy a masterpiece. To the few who can link it, well done, as you are smart and brave. Where is H, or Trav20, or Hannabal btw?

    Technically you are correct, but would you call the post-2000 release of "A little less conversation" by the King "modern"?

    People like Orbison can make poo sound like strawberry jam; and you could probably say that for most of the baby boomer voices. Now you need to be naked and twirking for someone to listen to you.

    I prefer the other way round to be honest. MJ sang "One" as good, if not better than Bono. What about Patti Smith in E-Bow the Letter? I am still floored.

    No one "listens" to modern music, you watch it. That's part of the problem.

    Also, it's Cash covering a song in 2002 that was originally made in 94. Pretty modern all round really. Cash made a series of these albums in his last few years, all produced by the amazing Rick Rubin, they're more than worth a listen if you can track them down somewhere for your gramaphone ;)

    Love your work stuey.

    Just show me how my Dr.Ore Beats connect to the old 78's and I will.

    Dr. Ore? Is he a wife-basher with a PhD?

    A quick look through my stash of depressing or angry songs, looking for nominations.

    Bob Dylan, Not Dark Yet

    Faith No More, Last Cup of Sorrow

    Aimee Mann - Wise up

    Actually, Last Cup of Sorrow through stadium speakers could be brutally satisfying.

    Although the ambiguity about it being either 'make a new start' or 'kill yourself' could be a problem. Or, ideal.

    Geez, it's growing on me.

    I'm guessing you mean Dr Dre...? haha

    Funnily enough, the guy who produced those Johnny Cash albums also is a massive player in Dr Dre's genre as well. Small world.

    The song 'hurt' originally came from an album called 'the downward spiral' so yeah,it's appropriate for MFC.

    I did have a chuckle when Carlton played Phil Collins "In the Air Tonight" before their theme song as they ran out yesterday. I guess it worked for them!

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Western Bulldogs

      The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
