The 1989 Icehouse music video for Great Southern Land was filmed in the Myall Lakes National Park - just a short drive from Gunyah... This fantastic scenery spotting was identified by Tom Hungerford and Michelle Genders (Shuffle Shuffle)!

When "Great Southern Land" was released as the first single from the Primitive Man album in 1982, a video for it was filmed in a disused sandstone quarry in the Kuringai National Park near Sydney. Then, in 1989, when the song met its first release as a single in North America and Europe, a new clip had to be made to accompany the overseas single. This time, the background Australian landscapes were provided by the Myall Lakes National Park on the mid-north coast of New South Wales.
