Tracks 9, 12 ©2000 Colin Hay Music/APRA (ASCAP)"Man At Work" is a CD album by Scottish-Australian singer-songwriter Colin Hay, released on the independent label Compass Records. The disc presents reimagined versions of classics from his Men at Work era alongside intimate solo material, highlighting Hay's unmistakable voice, melodic sense, and wry storytelling. Sparse, often acoustic arrangements bring songs like "Down Under" and "Who Can It Be Now?" into a warmer, more mature light, emphasizing lyrics and emotional nuance over 80s bombast. The production is clean and organic, giving the record a timeless singer-songwriter character that fits both focused listening and relaxed background play. With its blend of nostalgia and renewed artistic depth, "Man At Work" is ideal for long-time fans of Men at Work as well as new listeners who appreciate thoughtful, melody-driven pop/rock with folk influences.
Colin Hay, former frontman of the multi-platinum band Men at Work, has enjoyed a long second career as a respected solo artist. Known for his distinctive voice and sharp, often humorous lyrics, he gained worldwide fame in the early 1980s with hits such as "Down Under," "Who Can It Be Now?" and "Overkill." Over the decades, his songs have remained cultural touchstones, frequently rediscovered through films, TV series, and cover versions. As a solo performer, Hay is celebrated for his intimate live shows, mixing storytelling, acoustic craftsmanship, and reflective new material with reinterpreted classics from his band days.
