Jacko - Me Brain Hurts (1985)
[Australian Footballer Rockstar Video Series Part 2 Of 2]
The Yang to The Yin. Yesterday we listened to Warwick Cropper's universal uplifting message of overcoming the obstacles in life by being awesome all the time (I Only Take What's Mine). Today we're taking a look at Jacko's much more specific message - overcoming the struggles of the day after a good knock to the noggin the night before (Me Brain Hurts) with a very simple solution... "I guess I'll have to get by with me body."
I thought for a bit that this guy was a pro wrestler from Australia. Nope, just another badass with zero pain tolerance but a sense of humor enough to write a fun song about it. Upon further research I learned about Larrikinism - an Australian English term meaning "a mischievous young person, an uncultivated, rowdy but good-hearted person", or "a person who acts with apparent disregard for social or political conventions"
