Very good joint!

I love this.

these guys......crazy

luv luv luved them....by far ahead of thier time...and they were so cool to boot...still jam to that album....

very nice music

i like the music,but Colin scares me with his lazy eye:)

I was recently watching an episode of scrubs where a guy is singing and playing the guitar while following the main character...and I was like..."Oh my god...that's the Men at Work dude"

aussie know how to have fun.

idk why, but i love it:)

it was a good song with a great beat

Good music video!

Really irritating!

Alright, I posted this one today as part of my "sometimes the '80s attack" series that I post on myspace. Its strange, yet fun...

YEAH, I loved men at work

Very original type of song i do enjoy.

it was good.

This song makes me giggle and the video makes it even better.

FUNNY!!!

yep yep

Funny song.

I love this song. 4

Great song

i like their music

hilarious laughed my a** off while weeded out in the 90's though not 80's lmao

Another great pop song

Goofy video, cool song(complete with flute). The guys from down under had quite a run in the early 80's. Remember, they were "Best New Artist" in 1983.

No.

Made me try Vegemite.

I hate this song

I like this song

we all had to figure out what a vegemite sandwich was, but it was worth it! life is better down under! xx den NISI

liked it!

loved it .

ha scrubs thought

omg, watch the video.....

i hear the roar... i hear the thunder

Men At Work were a great infectious fun band that probably were hurt by over-exposure on radio. Colin Hay, their principle songwriter is still turning out nice simple heartfelt albums. It's a Vegamite sandwich. Vegamite is sandwhich spread popular down under and available here if you look around.

This song was a lot of fun...by the way what is a yosamite or whatever sandwich!!!

I always liked to watch the video, and still do!

This song is brilliant. Men At Work were a welcome change of pace in the early 80's. Business As Usual and their other follow up album Cargo were superb! Sadly they tapered off and split up. Colin Hay is an extremely talented artist. He has made several solo albums that are mostly very good and he gets no credit. I saw him play Down Under live on acoustic guitar and it was great.

A neat sound from a cool pop band. But like most music like it, it had a very dated flavor and therefore did not pass the test of time. Musicians need to know that you put strange stuff like flutes and weird synth in your stuff, it will be different but wont last. Stick to the basics. Guitar, bass, drums and good vocals/harmonies. Aerosmith, The Stones, today, STP, 3 Doors Down and Audio slave. Thats the kind of music with charchter that lasts. Too many Effects, bells and whistles and samples are all for the birds most of the time.

Typical 80's song. Silly...didn't seem to make much sense, and all about having fun.

This is a typical Australian stereotype song. It is OK, but not great. It has an element of power to it (women glow and men shunder, can't you hear their thunder.) (Sorry if I havn't gotten the words 100%.)

This is the best song ever!

My friends and I wore this thing out. We couldn't get enough of it. I have it on cd, but I like to get out the old 45 sometimes so I can hear the pops and hisses. Brings back great high school memories. Wonder what that band is doing now? They sure faded out fast.

In many ways, one can trace the origins of the 1980's Australian craze to Down Under (and its companion single Who Can It Be Now?), both released on the 1982 full-length Business As Usual by Men At Work. Both singles are prime new wave songs which helped defined the era and classic MTV. The lasting appeal of this song is evidenced by the numerous covers, including those by Nothing Cool, Kingston Reggae Sound Machine, Palolo, and M.A.N. Down Under charted in the U.S. for 19 weeks in 1982-83, peaking at #1 for 4 of those weeks.

Have you ever tried vegemite? It tastes like you're sucking on a vitamin. Yuck.
