“Last Train” by Christine Anu/Paul Kelly

"Last Train" was Christine Anu's first single, a duet with Paul Kelly released on September 20, 1993, and it gave new wheels to an older Kelly song. He wrote it in 1986 as "Last Train to Heaven" for Gossip, the debut album by Paul Kelly and the Coloured Girls, and producer Angelique Cooper rebuilt it as a dance-oriented remix for the pair.

Anu took a roundabout road to the mic. She met Kelly early in the '90s, when she was dancing with the Bangarra Dance Company and he was touring Queensland, and in 1992 she was singing backup for Neil Murray's band the Rainmakers when Murray urged her to step out front. A deal with White Records, part of the Mushroom stable, followed, and this remake was her calling card. It peaked at 93 on the ARIA singles chart.
