Dreamworld Lyrics

Cover art for Dreamworld lyrics by Midnight Oil

The song is about Brisbane and more generally the SE corner of Queensland. Continuing the great Australian tradition of singing about places in our wonderful land.

In their day the Oils' biggest fan base was here, when they visited they played multiple consecutive gigs at the Brisbane Entertainment Centre; a venue the band hated because of the dreadful acoustics and the time it took to sound-check.

Play the "scream in blue" live version of "Dreamworld"; in the background are 10,000 screaming Brisbane fans (and the massive slap-back from the back wall).
