Biografía:
Midnight Oil era una banda de rock australiana reconocida por su característico sonido hard-rock, intensas presentaciones en vivo y su abierto activismo político.
"Burning the midnight oil" significa trabajar tarde en la noche, aludiendo a una lámpara de aceite. "Smells of the midnight oil" caracteriza poesía o prosa cargada con elaboradas alusiones literarias y vocabulario metafórico.
The Oils, como los conocen sus seguidores, comenzaron como una banda de rock progresivo llamada Farm a comienzos de los 70s

Koala Sprint
From the Head injuries album.
Tabbed by Matt Sheumack
(Tabbed for 2 Guitars)
And out from the echoes of the night
Concrete caverns catch the sky and hold the stars to ransom
A thousand dreams, it's getting late
Thousand runners standing still
I can smell the sand and sea again
I've had enough away
City times down down, I've got to go
Lord don't let me wait, Stay low
Am Bb Dm
'Cause I'm going up north again
Am Bb Dm (play 2 times)
Am Bb Dm (play 2 times)
