Encyclopedia
"Pennywhistle" is the second track on Watch Me Disappear
, the fourth studio album by Australian band Augie March
. The song was released digitally on 16 September 2008, with the hard copy released in Australia
on 27 September 2008.
The band's drummer, David Williams, is cheerfully showing his skills on a penny whistle
whilst going alongside Richards for a few metres, only to then be pushed and chased by Richards until knocked to the ground. We see Williams on his knees, holding his lower stomach area in pain.
After placing his bicycle next to a shed, he appears with the rest of the band members, continuing down the road whilst simultaneously playing instruments.
Towards the end of the song, we see the locals dancing in unison to the music, walking off into the distance.
