They don’t care about owning land, like English colonisers did here, but they feel like a living part of it. For example, if they need water from the desert they only take what is strictly necessary and leave the rest to animals, because they respect them immensely. Which of their teachings would be the most useful to improve modern civilisation?Įquality, without a doubt: in aboriginal tribes, human beings are equal to plants and animals. You’ve always been a spokesperson for the culture of your aboriginal ancestors. 52,000 hectares of land returned to Larrakia Aboriginals We have to put effort into looking for it even in the people around us. I believe beauty is everywhere: I already feel lucky to live in a magical place like Australia, but there’s beauty everywhere, we just have to look for it and concentrate on what’s closest to us. Xavier Rudd’s new album is titled Storm Boy © Cole Bennetsĭo you believe the beauty of the world manifests itself or that we have to continuously seek it out? We should always evolve in a positive and respectful manner, as opposed to being omnivorous and predatory.
In truth it would be enough to think of ourselves as part of planet Earth and love it for everything it gives us. I think so, those beliefs influence our daily lives, but there are also many religions that teach us to respect the gift of nature. If the most important religions had focused their doctrines on Mother Earth instead of higher beings, do you think we’d love and respect our planet more? I’m not religious in the sense that I don’t believe in a God and I don’t follow the tenets of organised churches, but I believe in nature and everything that surrounds me: I love Earth, the sun, the sea and animals. I know you’re not a believer, what is your relationship with religion? Your vision shows a balance between spirituality and rationality. If we make radical choices, we must be certain and firm in our beliefs, always remembering to love ourselves for what we are. In your songs it seems more like a peaceful rebellion than a defeat. To quote your dear friend Ben Harper, sometimes you just have to walk away. On the other hand, Stom Boy is a natural progression from Spirit Bird, the continuation of my journey and an honest tale of my experiences in the last five years. This album is very special to me, it’s much more personal than Nanna with the United Nations, which can be considered a separate chapter in my discography. You’ve said that every album is a revelation of your spirit that magically appears through music: what has this album told you about yourself? We just finished recording it and I can’t wait for the album to be out, but there’s no time to dwell on it because we’ve already began rehearsals for the long tour ahead of us. Your new album Storm Boy is about to come out.
I’m really lucky to live in this wonderful region of the world. It’s very warm, it’s a fantastic season right now. Xavier Rudd deeply respects his aboriginal origins © Arterium Religion, sustainability, equality, a positive approach to life, freedom and much more: these are the themes we discussed in the course of this interview. With each gift that you share You may heal and repair With each choice you make You may help someone's day Well I know you are strong May your journey be long And now I wish you the best of luck Well I know you are strong May your journey be long And now I wish you the best of luck.An excellent and profound songwriter whose name can be listed among the likes of Ben Harper, Jack Johnson, Eddie Vedder and his majesty Bob Marley.
#XAVIER RUDD MESSAGES LYRICS CRACK#
So hold nice and close I want to get to your soul So that when it is cold You won't feel so alone 'Cause the roads that you take May just crack and break With the changes you will confront So speak out loud Of the things you are proud And if you love this coast Then keep it clean as it hopes 'Cause the way that it shines May just dwindle with time With the changes it will confront So please beware With every place that you had Look to your soul For the things that you know For the trees that we see Can not forever breathe With the changes they will confrontĬHORUS: You know some people they just won't understand No I just won't understand These things Thank you for your message but I don't understand No I just won't understand These thingsįor this sacred land It has seen many hands It has wealth and gold Yet it is fragile and old And all the greedy souls Just don't care to know Of the changes it will confront So now come sit down Will you talk with me now Let me see through your eyes Where there is so much light We are biding our time For these myths to unwind For these changes we will confront
