Don WalkerIf you've ever had an existential moment in the pub while belting out the lyrics to Flame Trees with your mate in a headlock, don't fear. From Cold Chisel to Catfish, one of Australia's most prolific songwriters Don Walker is due to release a collection of his lyrics where you might just find the answer.
With autobiographical sketches and anecdotes, and an exclusive introduction by Jimmy Barnes, the aptly named Songs will be released via Black Inc on 1 July. Pre-order here.
But to tide you over and celebrate its release, we here at theMusic.com.au have an exclusive video of Walker discussing the writing and development of Cold Chisel classic Flame Trees. And yes, according to Walker, "there's definitely a certain girl in Flame Trees." We'll let him do the rest.
The video also features a cover of the iconic track by Sarah Blasko. Check it out above!
