I work in phone interview market research. (I won't name my employer or the client.) Phone survey re a mining project somewhere, a lady answered a question: "Nothing's as precious as a hole in the ground." I asked her "Waitaminute, are you quoting #MidnightOil?" "Yep." 😂 #BlueSkyMine #AusMusic 🎶
a hearty Thank You to the grocery store for playing this Song Of The Day(ish). apparently i'm now the grocery-store music generation.

He wrote this incredible line which still reasonates today

What better excuse for a little bit of The Oil than the first snowstorm of the year. #BlueSkyMine #MidnightOil @masseyhall.bsky.social #LiveForLiveMusic
A gentle Bura carries the sea’s song across the morning. The air turns clear, the light alive, and the sky wide open again. #BlueSkyMine #Croatia #Sunset #Seaside #NaturePhotography #MaliOliPhotoArt #Canon
Wittenoom. #BlueSkyMine. The killer blue asbestos
Useless politicians thought they could cut the roads & power, close the town, & somehow the problem would magically disappear
But the piles of tailings still sit there in the Pilbera. And every rain & wind spread them further, to kill more (cont)

A faint but colorful rainbow arcs diagonally across a cloudy sky, with shades of red, orange, yellow, green, and blue visible. The clouds are a mix of darker grays and lighter patches, with a few glimpses of blue sky beneath. The rainbow appears without any visible rain, suggesting moisture from the air or sea caused its formation.
A rainbow without rain — nature’s way of saying beauty doesn’t always follow the storm. 🌈 #rainbow #sky #clouds #nature #BlueSkyMine #photography #maliOliPHOTOart #Canon
#Interestingly Another example of a group that had tremendous Worldwide success… but just the one Top 40 hit in America. Midnight Oil’s 1990 “Blue Sky Mine” came close, though. The song peaked at #47 on the US #Billboard Hot 100. #MidnightOil #BlueSkyMine #OneHitWondered #MusicSky
Fast-forwarding to 2025 with the legendary Peter Garrett at the St Kilda Festival last weekend. Here with his band "The Alter Egos". Peter is renowned as an activist, former politician & lead singer of Midnight Oil

Wittenoom- "a town in Western Australia that sprang up around a blue asbestos mine, in the 1940s and '50s. Many were unaware that asbestos fibres can cause lung disease and cancer. Possibly thousands of residents have since died from exposure."

If, every time you open BlueSky you start singing Midnight Oil in your head you are Gen X and definitely have ADHD, you’re welcome

OMG I’ve been here 36 hours, have reconnected with loads of people and also have #BlueSkyMine totally stuck in my head. Am wondering what it will take to knock it out but also feeling very bolshie listening to the soundtrack in my head… ✊🏻✊🏻✊🏻
And #Bluesky keeps reminding me of the song #BlueskyMine by #MidnighOil.
Lucky enough to see them live just after 10-1 was released. Great band, backed some great causes. #BlueSkyMine
