Colin Hay , former lead singer with Men At Work

Do you recall the 1983 No.1 ”Down Under”? Lead singer Colin Hay joins Richard Green for a chat about his music now ..as well as back in the 80’s.

“Travelling in a fried-out combie........., On a hippie trail........... head full of zombie”
Do you recognise those lyrics?

It’s Men at Work’s No.1 from 1983......”Down Under”, and did you know that lead singer Colin Hay didn’t “come from a land down under” at all ?
He’s actually Scottish , but lives in America nowadays. Even so that hasn’t stopped Richard Green from catching up with him on his Retro Show, for a chat about his music now ..as well as back in the 80’s .........
