Waterworld.


It flooded very mildly in Kingsford yesterday. I needed to be on the other side of that street there. I ended up getting a cab three hundred metres up to my home. Apparently a couple of blocks from here someone had to get the SES to come get them out of their car. Waist high water and all that. Fifteen minutes after I took this I went around to Anzac Parade and water was coming up into businesses. Fun times.

So here's some flood music. The Strums used to be in a punk band. Now they play sweet sweet folk because that's where all the cred is.

The singer Jai (what a guy) Sparks had his riverside Brisbane home flooded in January during the Queensland inundation and put out a song about it. The video was filmed in the house after all the water was politely asked to leave.



Also single's the B-side is a pretty killer song.
