“Things Don't Seem” by Australian Crawl
From the album Sirocco (1981)
“Things Don't Seem” by Australian Crawl appears on 1 radio countdown from 1 station in 2018. It was first released in 1981 on the album Sirocco. Its best result is #78 on the Triple M Ozzest 100 (2018).
"Things Don't Seem" was the first single Australian Crawl lifted from Sirocco in 1981, and it climbed to number 11 on the Australian singles chart. Peter Dawkins produced it with Dave Marett engineering, but the spotlight belongs to Simon Binks, who plays acoustic, electric and slide guitar on it; his lead work here is some of the most intricate the surf-rock band ever put on tape.
James Reyne sings lead and plays piano, Guy McDonough and Brad Robinson add guitars, Paul Williams plays bass and Bill McDonough handles drums and percussion. Guy McDonough wrote it with Sean Higgins and later cut it again for his solo album My Place, which his brother Bill put out in 1985, after Guy's death. Triple M's 2018 "Ozzest 100", a countdown of the most Australian songs, made room for it too.
