From anxiety into desperation we come to Track 2 - ‘What Can I Do If The Fire Goes Out?’. We explore what keeps our protagonist’s fire burning - is it the will to pleasure, meaning or power? Uncertain if the answer is to be found in Freud, Frankl or Nietzsche, this intensely yearning song also sees him ask God what he's to do to keep this fire burning.

No Tone Unturned is a docu-podcast series that takes Australian music seriously.

Every season, we’ll take 1 significant Australian album, and work our way through it from start to finish, one song per episode. We’ll comb through each and every verse to unpack the lyrics, songwriting techniques and philosophy behind the tunes that have moved this country.
