The Swingers - Counting The Beat (1981)

We often forget that he was English and most people in OZ wouldn't even know that he had an English accent. I don't think it's jealousy. However, in the case of Russell Crowe, it's not hard for Aussies to say 'you can have him back'.

Mar 26, 2009 - Haha yeah I know, I was just being silly. I know what you mean, I live in the UK now, and it's kind of the same here for Scottish and Welsh people... if they do something good they're british, if they do something bad they're scottish lol. Urg Russell Crowe is annoying! You're welcome to him :D

Mar 27, 2009 - I love whoever posted this song.... Back in 1998 i backpacked around Oz and stumbled across a cover version band in a pub in Kings Cross. They blasted this tune out, and it has reminded me of those good times ever since. God bless you nzoz1981 !!!

Aug 14, 2009 - I had just bought this album in 1981 and thought it was brilliant from beginning to end. That year the USA network on cable broadcast a 30 minute collection of videos from The Swingers, and it was fantastic! I haven't seen any of those videos since then until tonight. Great group, and rather unknown here in the States.
