"Down Under" Men At Work (Original Version, 1980)


This is the original independent Australian self-release of "Down Under" by Men At Work. It was the B-side to their first local single titled "Keypunch Operator", released before the band signed with CBS Records.

This version of "Down Under" sounds almost entirely different from the worldwide famous hit version, which is upbeat and poppy. This original version is much slower, almost reggae in tempo.
