Comments from the “Natural Selection” liner notes (by Mark Seymour):
This song is a requiem for a dream we once had about our country being some kind of burgeoning utopia. There was definitely a view in the eighties that Australia was destined for greatness despite the hedonism of its people. Sadly, the hedonism had us firmly in its grip with this track. Picture yours truly ranting from a hotel window overlooking Bondi beach, expounding on the moral decline of those naked people lying on the sand below… it’s a little like a re-run of ‘When The River Runs Dry’ with an added tinge of hysteria.

The commonly held belief is that “Those Days Are Gone” is Mark writing about his brother Nick Seymour. At the time Crowded House had just split, and Nick was the bass player. It was known at the time that Nick did not want the band to split and was not happy with the decision. Perhaps intentionally, the song does have a ‘Crowded House’ feel about it (particularly if you disregard the ‘horns of contempt’).
