He now runs around yelling the opening bahm bahm bahm like it's his superhero theme track. It's quite adorable.
He has also yelled out in the middle of his sleep "Give it back, we've got to give it back'. He asked about what it meant and it becomes so simple when you are talking to a 4 yr old. You cannot just take someone else's land etc. It made me quite proud when he quoted it to an uncle when his cousin wasn't playing nicely. "No you can't just take something. Give it back, like that Beds On Fire song". Man, I was so proud.
How does Wolf feel about Blue Sky Mine? That's my favorite Midnight Oil song.
He hasn't complained about the music which is a positive. I haven't started with the politics of blue asbestos mining and the impact on a community. I might save that for after Kindy or even year One.
Music wise he is in the Diesel and Dust camp, preferring Beds Are Burning and The Dead Heart. However there was a yell during Hercules that made me smile.
Fun fact: I know the dude who edited Blue Sky Mining. I worked with him for years.
'sfunny 'cause my son also really loved The Oils stuff he heard as a kid. To this day he always turns up volume if certain tunes hit the car stereo.
He's partial to Beds but 10 through 1 as a whole would be his fave.
Man I loved this band.
Wolf was headbanging to Hercules just yesterday. And Beds Are Burning is still a fav.

Try out 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 and the Species Deceases EP for sure.
Keep checking in here, bugs, for the next year. There's eleven albums all available on Spotify and it looks like we're going to LAL to them all.
But Species, Diesel and Dust, Blue Sky Mine and 10-1 are must listens.
