Powderfinger - These Days Lyrics

2020 another year of being depressed boys. Let's get it.

My funeral song

Love you peanut

Man we've got and had some great aussie bands cool stuff

I'm just about finished, these days turned out Nothing like I planned.

Bloody hell mate... I dont know what to say... I saw your earlier post and now this. I can only hope you're not in pain and have loved ones near,it would be terrifying. Sorry mate😞

@Dylan Parker I'm not really looking for sympathy, but people like yourselves make life worth fighting for.

I was just looking up this song while my TV was on in the background playing an advert about "canadian club" whiskey. All of a sudden youtube sends me an ad about canadian club whiskey.... 🤔. Proof that smart phones listen in on your conversations.

you needed that as proof? your phone has voice recognition it does not turn off when your phones screen is dark....none of the apps do they keep running in the back round. I for one welcome our new insect overlords.

Also proudly aussie love the 80s 90s 2000s long haired bands shit such an awesome era ,onloy current band keeping it alive is Steel Panther, keep kranking it everyday everyone.

FIT IN OR FUCK OFF

I saw Powderfinger support Crowded House at their last gig at the Sydney Opera House steps in 1997. I knew that one great Aussie band was ending and another was beginning.

Great song.😎

Lived in Australia from 88-2001 and I have only just discovered this band. Don't know how I missed them but what a song and band.

Anyone else remember this from Singstar?

Two Hands.
Was dancing in the club they called the titty twister when two hands came out lol had no job for a while

Cant believe this was released as a b side so good still today 19

Just been diagnosed with terminal cancer. These days turned out nothing lke I had planned. I want this song played at my funeral.

@philip sinclair I couldnt imagine what your going through mate but if it makes you feel any better my girlfriend and I built a house 2yrs ago in a new estate and our neighbour has terminal cancer, his in his 40's and has a wife and 2 kids. Im not sure what stage cancer or what type he has etc, BUT with medication these days his still my neighbour today and still smiling. Chemo took his hair but its now grown back, he knows his illness is eventually going to get the better of him but his had it for over 2yrs now and is still with us so while your able mate spend as much time with your family and friends as possible because a good support network and a laugh a day seems to do wonders. Goodluck mate👍

@philip sinclair That's a righteous prayer. I'll say a prayer for you then.

@SaturdaysR4 The boyz! Thanks for the post and words of encouragement. I am trying to be positive and hoping but not necessarily confident. I have pancreatic cancer which has spread throughout my stomach. I am not on chemo at present as the doctors say it won't help. I wish your neighbour every hope and encouragement. Miracles DO happen. Whether you believe or not, a prayer will help.
If anyone has any family history of cancer it's a good idea to have a checkup.The week before I became sick I rode my bike about 100kms, did some weights workouts so I was fairly fit. One day I had no symptoms, the next day I was very sick. My surgeon said that most cancers show no symptoms until too late. However caught early enough a lot af cancers can be cured or managed. Good luck.
ps. I am very lucky as I have friends and family who comfort me . The religious ones pray for me, which I am very thankful for. The others give their love and support which I couldn't do without.

@drew sale I appreciate your kind words more than you will ever know.

@philip sinclair Thanks Philip. Prayer sent. May God give you and your family peace and happiness.

I love powderfinger. Greetings from Nepal🇳🇵 Have a wonderful day.

Two Hands! RIP Heath!!

Based on every step on life and experiences

Better than Nirvana...

Fuck oath!

Good song

My 16 year old brother committed suicide June 2001, a week before Tim McVeigh was executed(Oklahoma city bombing), 3 months before September 11, they were strange days.

Best depression song

It's tragicomic, isn't it? It slips through all our hands

Still listening to this song in 2019 bro

seems to be a teenager dream song:

Lyrics:
It's coming round again
slowly creeping hand
of time and its command
soon enough it comes
and settles in its place
its shadow in my face
puts pressure in my day
This life well it's slipping right through my hands
these days turned out nothing like I had planned
It's coming round again
the slowly creeping hand
of time and its command
it settles in its place
its shadow in my face
puts pressure in my day
soon enough it comes
here it is again
slowly creeping hand
time and it's command
soon enough it comes
settles in it's place
puts pressure in my day
undignified and lame
This life well it's slipping right through my hands
These days turned out nothing like I had planned
Control well it's slipping right through my hands
these days…

Low key dark
Two Hands. Heath. <3

TWO HANDS

Songs points out to me that we are all just lost souls ,,,, filling in time waiting to die ,,,, one Australia’s most profound bands ... ✌🏻👍🏻

Darin j6789 lost souls in search of our own destiny vs the tyranny of time. And the people we meet along the way

No way, I'm a free bird, flying through the best life ever

Paulo Domonic Aquillo ,,,, you will get your slap down from life ,,, everyone does ,,, hope you don’t fall to hard when you do finally crash .

Those guys going deep from heights

Great song.👌🏾

David Thoreau in his book ..’Walden’ .wrote ‘Most people live lives of quiet desperation’ .

I started Monday. It’s fantastic!

So nice

How many hands?

2 hands

deep scene songs flows so well with it

Friday is my last day at my current school. I'm a 5th year senior in high school and this year wasn't very good. I'll be starting at a college transition program Monday.

Best of luck on your new start, hope it's better for you.

Two Hands. Heath. <3

I went to high school with Heath . As much as he was a legend on screen he was off.

Two Hands was just a beautiful film. Heath gave one of his best performances in that film, along with Bryan Brown.

@Drew Russell Heath is good but Bryan made that film. He is brilliant.

pokinatcha punx Dave Heith Played such a top Class role, I Actually Disliked The Man on Set lol

I can get lost forever in 80s music I go back in time when what ever your dream is you go and do it back to a simple life

MAL SHANLEY this is not an 80s song?

This was released in 2000

These days turned out nothing like I had planned. Relatable.

got news for u buddy
u gay

These days? pfft MY ENTIRE LIFE has turned out nothing like I had planned

@Dimitri with a name like Chantel liking men would be normal. Look up the word oversight.

Masterpiece of Music

miss ya wicks

I miss a wicks too.. David..

Australia's incarnation of Journey

Evn M He who has come

I remember having a great discussion with a friend in about 97 I think, that Powderfinger were the late 90's incarnation of INXS. Not the sound so much as the way they tapped into the aussie consciousness of the time. A great 5 piece that didan awesome live show!

This song makes me want to sell crack to orphans.

That's so Triple M

FedoraSmoker triple j

Triple J is better

Triple m is the best triple j is just crap songs

SMOKING BELLY BUTTON LINT WHILE LISTENING TO THIS. BLISS.

Get in the fuckin car Wally

Pando's wife was hot af sitting on the balcony when the phone rings.

I'll put it on my list ,cheers

yeh i played this song when my brother died

Fun (but not that fun) Fact: it was played at Heath Ledger's funeral.
Perfect song for the tragic death

Is it coming ‘round again??

Sophie Dubois yes

I think the writer is talking about 'the black dog' (could be wrong)

too fast

or too slow

Proud to be Aussie

Australia Day tomorrow brother!

to be an aussie how lucky are we

Frank Cooke good song but

Ned Smith like you

Dinky dye !

powderfinger are a band that makes beyonce whilt

i spent a year in Oz 99-00, loved this song every time i heard it on the radio, brings back memories

I lived in Newcastle from 99-02. My parents had the cassette in the car.

@mmc81073 Come back for a visit mate. We'll welcome you with open arms.

thanks Jarryd, kind words, beautiful country and people, i'll be back someday if it's the last thing i do

@Jarryd Matthews But would you welcome an Aboriginal Person of Australia?

I'm figuring that you would considering the English are outright cunts and you guys hate them too.

@SneakyBadger muppet

i saw the live 1999 when i was Backpacking in OZ
And 3 times in Amsterdam .... LOVE IT!!!!

kool bro

i'm jealous, i was only 1 :(

I was in Amsterdam Town Square on the eve of 2000..does that count as cool enough too??
Never did get to see these guys live. Lucky you hey.
