Wow, Best Pop Male Performer of the year, Best Recorded Songwriter of the year and Album of the year. Not a bad year for Tim was 1983!!

quote:

pp. 244-5. “It was awards time again in Melbourne, and Split Enz were in the final nominations for Group of the Year, which you will recall they had won the year before. They took their seats in a row, Tim sitting next to Neil Split Enz didn't win. But Tim, as a solo artist, wan Male Performer of the Year, Songwriter of the Year, Album of the Year, the clip for ‘Fraction Too Much Friction’ won Video of the Year, and Fataar and Moffatt took Producers of the Year. Performing 'In A Minor Key'. During the ceremony, Tim was in control. He was singing live to a mimed piano part when the tape suddenly stopped. in a moment of extraordinary 'cool', in front of a national television audience, he said 'Let's wind it back' and told a few jokes while the tape was corrected. His eyes were open. And the sweat dried from his palms. He then sang the song in toto and left the stage. The night was his.”

There is definately a clip for No Thunder, No Fire, No Rain, Tim talks about it in an interview that I have about Big Canoe. It is directed by Gerard De Thame.

I'm pretty sure that there is also a clip for Spiritual Hunger.

Considering that the rest of the Escapade videos were recently posted on YouTube, then we should hope the Big Canoe videos will follow suit.

Someone should upload those to YouTube if they have them, that would be a real treat for those who haven't seen any of them.
