South Australia's Redgum, along with the likes of Goanna and Midnight Oil, were at the forefront of political comment through their music. Their biggest hit had been "I Was Only 19", a protest song against the futility in Vietnam. These sort of songs also brought them to the attention of ASIO (Australian Security Intelligence Organisation) and so it is little wonder that John Schumann should find another topic to write a song about.

How did Garrett fuck the theory that this song ended Redgum's career ? HE SOLD OUT joined the enemy. In any case he was a Green who were unwittingly working for those who want us culled. Garrett turned out to be a real dufus, brainwashed and ready.

Well Sasja Jappie, this your ex and now once again current girlfriend. Thank you for listening to me babe ; and yes anything does go with A.S.I.SO. As I like to refer to Old A.S.I.O. as Lieseo (Spelt out, Lie Seo). A.S.I.O's official line should be, "We don't do things like that!!! Lots of Love, Ms. Justine Clifford. XOX.

my x girlfriend told me about this song.this song effectively ended red gum as a band.hey everything is legal and everything goes. your life in databank A.S.I.O. By the way this was before the INTERNET. I had a friend more than 10 years ago volunteer for the C.I.A.,he gave his name only, no address. he got a reply approximately 2 weeks later from the C.I.A. saying they know they know who to find if and when they need them

And however bad they were in the early 80's they're many times worse now. Recently came across an article about them wanting to be able to read all Australian's emails... Have the album version on my channel :)
