About the Song

“The Dead Heart” is one of Midnight Oil’s most powerful and socially conscious tracks, originally released in 1986 and later featured on their acclaimed 1987 album Diesel and Dust. The song reflects on Australia’s colonial history and the struggles of Aboriginal Australians, echoing themes of dispossession and cultural survival. Its haunting chorus — “We carry in our hearts the true country” — became a symbol of reconciliation and awareness.

Musically, the song stands out for its tribal drum patterns, steady bassline, and atmospheric instrumentation, creating a deep, meditative groove that supports Peter Garrett’s impassioned vocals.
