Good afternoon, Jessi, how are things in Eugene? I hope the weekend's going well for you. My wife is a Duck and we used to live in Cottage Grove, I love the area.
Colin Hay is a singer/guitarist/songwriter and used to be lead singer for a group from way back when called Men at Work. To me he is highly underappreciated as an artist. Honestly, I thought I had included a link to one of my favorite song which is "Waiting for My Real Life to Begin". Anyway, here's the link http://video.search.yahoo.com/video/play?p=youtube%20colin%20hay%20waiting%20for%20my%20real%20life%20to%20begin&tnr=21&vid=4670996624506923&turl=http%3A%2F%2Fts4.mm.bing.net%2Fvideos%2Fthumbnail.aspx%3Fq%3D4670996624506923%26id%3D13ef3f54dc0f65e7d55cb3be88bd599b%26bid%3D1vjOFIK9lpDN3w%26bn%3DThumb%26url%3Dhttp%253a%252f%252fwww.youtube.com%252fwatch%253fv%253dm4tcRlHY-3Q&rurl=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3Dm4tcRlHY-3Q&sigr=11ankj31k&newfp=1&tit=Waiting+for+my+real+life+to+begin+-+Colin+Hay
I hope it works, if not, you can just search for him on YouTube. He has several other songs on there as well one of which is called "Beautiful World", another of my faves. I hope you like him, have a great day, girl. Hugs.

Oh for heaven sake. Hi Jessi, I just tried the link, it sends me somewhere else for some reason. If you want, just google him or search for him on YouTube. Hugs again.

I will look him up. But, I do know Men At Work. I was in my 20s when they were popular, and I lived in Australia for 2-1/2 years when they were popular. So, I guess I do know him.
By coincidence, I actually live in a rural area just outside of Cottage Grove. We consider CG home.

Hey Jessi, oh wow, girl, I didn't realize we are so close in age, though I guess I was in my late 20's or early 30's when they were popular. How neat to have lived in Australia, a visit there is on my bucket list.
I'm pretty sure you'll like his music, at least I hope so. Have a great day, girl.
Hugs...Joni Mari
