5.0 out of 5 stars Philosophical whimsy in song, January 5, 2011

This review is from: Billy the Rabbit (Audio CD)

Michael Leunig is an Aussie gem who should be better known in the U.S. A philosophical poet/satirist/cartoonist/artist, his wit is sharp, his heart open, and he manages with simple line drawings to gently expose our current human condition--love, death, politics, war... This set contains a small book of his illustrated poems to read alone or along with Gyan and her friends. The combination is beautiful melancholy tinged with hope. "Make a steamy compost of your fears/Trickle irrigate your life with tears" and live in wonderment of it all. Unique and highly recommended.

Leunig is a leftist nutball, but this album is quite good musically and often lyrically.

Leunig's site has some audio tracks [...]

My own favorites are Bottle and Autumn.
