    3. INXS – For some classic rock, listen to “Need You Tonight” or “Never Tear Us Apart.”
    4. Crowded House – “Don’t Dream It’s Over” is a quintessential Aussie classic that’s perfect for any road trip.
    5. Gotye – “Somebody That I Used to Know” was a massive hit and really captures a unique sound.
    6. Angus & Julia Stone – Their song “Big Jet Plane” has a beautiful, mellow vibe that’s great for relaxing.
    7. Vance Joy – “Riptide” is catchy and captures that laid-back Aussie feel.
    8. Silverchair – “Tomorrow” is perfect if you’re into grunge rock from the ’90s.
