Hundreds Of Languages - Lyrics - Ganggajang
Gang Gajang are an Australian pop rock band which formed in 1984. Three of the founders are frontman Mark 'Cal' Callaghan on guitar and lead vocals, Chris Bailey on bass guitar and Graham 'Buzz' Bidstrup on drums . They were soon joined by Geoffrey Stapleton on keyboards, guitar and vocals. Their most popular song, "Sounds of Then" aka "This Is Australia", was issued in December 1985 and peaked in the top 40 on the Australian Kent Music Report Singles Chart. It became familiar to Australians ten years later when it was used on TV in a Coca-Cola ad and then for the 1996 Nine Network station ID promotion. Their highest selling album was Gang Gajang , which was released in November 1985. They have issued three other studio albums, Gang Again , Lingo and Oceans and Deserts . On 4 April 2013 Chris Bailey died of throat cancer, aged 62.

The spirit rose, above a hundred languages
And the moon was there for all to see
And the beat goes on across a 100 languages
And the sun is the same, yeah, one and the same for you and me
They had many words with the same meaning
And one voice with which they sang
In Hundreds of Languages speak to me
In Hundreds of Languages speak to me
But its all been said about a hundred times before
But it's only words, it's only words
They had stories, that spanned the generations
Handed from one to one on down the line
I hear a voice and it seems to speak to everyone
I hear a voice and it's callin' me
In Hundreds of Languages speak to me
In Hundreds of Languages speak to me
Speak to me
