Found these on Youtube, does anyone else know any film clips that feature our cities in them? Please put them on if you do.

AC/DC - It's a long way to top if you want to rock and roll
They ride the back of a truck through the middle of 70's Melbourne (love the rock bagpipe!)

John Paul Young - Yesterdays Hero
He walks about the streets of Melbourne, mixed with terrible Countdown like stage poses and horrendous close ups.

Bit of Eastern Suburbs Sydney and Martin Plaza getting slapped. Not sure where she goes - Hobart?

One of Jebediahs film clip was filmed in and around Perth CBD, from vague memory. I remember the spiral stair case in Forrest Place.

Can't remember the name of the song but I was quite a fan of theirs and when I saw Perth on their music video I was very surprised to find out they were from Perth.

The 2001 song "Dust Me Selecta" by Gerling was shot at Flagstaff station on the Loop underground line in Melbourne.

It features an old 70's train which is now long gone from the tracks on Melbourne.
