Free Music Notes for Business as Usual
Free Music Review: One of the best albums of the early 1980s....
Hit: 5 Stars
And the best that Men At Work ever did. It starts out with their huge hit "Who Can It Be Now?", and is followed by the excellent "I Can See It In Your Eyes." Next is the other big hit "Down Under", followed by "Underground" and one of my personal favorites, "Helpless Automaton", sung by Greg Ham. Next is probably my least favorite, "People Just Love To Play With Words." Another hit, "Be Good Johnny" follows that, then "Touching The Untouchables", a song about homelessness. "Catch A Star" and the masterpiece "Down By The Sea" conclude this album. Too bad this group split up after only a few years, but by then, their music was becoming mediocre. This will always remain their true gem.
Business as Usual Poster
Helped immeasurably by the heavy rotation with which its clever videos were greeted by the then brand-new MTV network, the Australian group Men at Work were one of the biggest--and least anticipated--success stories of 1982. On the strength of two No. 1 singles, the sax-driven "Who Can It Be Now" and the geocentric "Down Under," the band's debut album spent an astonishing 15 weeks at the top of the charts. Bandleader Colin Hay's Sting-like, reggae-influenced singing was welcomed by the emerging video music generation--even if they had no idea what a "Vegemite" sandwich was. --Billy AltmanAlternative Rock Music CDs
