      Only ever hear the expression in regard to elections.
      As in if a certain electorate, say Eden Monaro goes to the Labor Party early. Then the Labor Party led by Marrickville's Anthony Albanese will win. So it is a "bellwether" seat. In 8 days. May that dream occur.

      Voted early and played a prank on the tory volunteer handin' out how to vote pamphlets. Subvertin' their lame rhymin' slogan. I smiled as I approached him. He smiled back happily handin' me the tory pamphlet. I slowly and gleefully said "It's gunna be easy, with Albanese!". His face dropped.

      I'm a small man in many ways 😉

        Both party leaders are pretty pathetic. I'm going for the Sustainable Australia Party.

          Either way one is up the junction, either way you look at it, you lose. Or should I say, Up the creek.

              I think this far and away YesWest's best album- 90125 has some good tracks as does talk- but this has more and is far more Yesish! Agreed their are some lightweights on it- but Im Running alone makes it worthwhile and most agree Shoot High-Aim Low is a great track- for me teh title track is weird- pleasingly so! The cover--- woudl have liked something better but I love this album and listen to it far more than the other two!

                Significantly less annoying than 90125, but also...dull.

                Another one I can't listen to now. It gets a two.

                  3.

                  The second side is really good. I’ve never liked “Rhythm of Love,” but “Holy Lamb,” “Final Eyes,” and a few others are strong. Meanwhile, “I’m Running” is among their best handful of songs since the 1970s, imho.

                  Nobody asked, but here are my favorites from 1980 on:
                  1. Fly From Here (suite or song)
                  2. Machine Messiah
                  3. Tempus Fugit
                  4. Hearts
                  5. Masquerade
                  6. I’m Running
                  7. Into the Storm
                  8. Mind Drive
                  9. Endless Dream
                  10. Into the Lens​

                      LOL I never realized that, but there’s even a Howe solo spot halfway!

                      to be honest, though, my real top 10 is as follows.
                      1. Gates of Delirium
                      2. Close to the Edge
                      3. Heart of the Sunrise
                      4. Yours is No Disgrace
                      5. Siberian Khatru
                      6. Astral Traveller
                      7. South Side of the Sky
                      8. Starship Trooper
                      9. Sound Chaser
                      10. Long Distance Runaround / The Fish​
