Stunningly designed, this flexibound book profiles the top 40 most famous Australian pop and rock songs. What a famous song is about and what you think it's about aren't always the same thing.

Aussie Rock Anthems - Top 40 names the top 40 classic Australian songs and tells the stories behind them—many of which are unknown. From Hunters and Collectors' Throw Your Arms Around Me to INXS's Don't Change and Red Gum's I Was Only 19, author Glen Humphries unearths hidden gems and surprising backstories about the bands.

It's a celebration of great Australian music that will have you reaching for old vinyl or phone apps to give some of these classics another listen. Chances are, each song is not what you had assumed.
