So only songs that get played on the radio might be great given that criteria. I'd have almost thought that great songs don't get played on the radio. From the few times I here the radio it is full of crap. |

| 769522 | 2009-05-02 14:10:00 | Always rated The Prophet by Working With Walt as one of the best New Zealand songs, it is about New Zealand and is particularly powerful in my opinion (especialy if you play it while in the Ureweras). I vaguely recall seeing Working with Walt play during Orientation Week at Massey Uni in 1985. I must check and see if I still have their EP... |

It's simple music and every song is about a New Zealand story. This latest compilation of Kiwi music looks a bit weak beside Natures Best which is still an excellent collection. |

I can't comment as being a heathen I haven't heard either album | gary67 (56) | ||
