“Kick a Hole in the Sky” by You Am I

"Kick a Hole in the Sky" closed out the singles from Dress Me Slowly, the 2001 album from Australian rockers You Am I, as the third and last of them, and Tim Rogers wrote every word and note. Clif Norrell produced and mixed it, Paul McKercher recorded it, and Sony Music Australia put it out.

Dress Me Slowly was the album that locked in the band's best-known lineup, with Davey Lane now officially aboard, and Junkee's David James Young heard this song as the one that sealed his place: the perfect sideman for Rogers' energy, with chorus harmonies that lift it from good to great and a solo later on that he called a real ripper.
