It was a favourite with the band and with fans, appearing at least once on every tour since its release and appearing at the WaveAid concert. Very few other Midnight Oil songs have appeared so often (only "Power and the Passion", "Beds Are Burning", "The Dead Heart", and "Say Your Prayers" are known to have been performed so often). Song structure and meaningThe abrasive "Read About It" has a repeatedly staggered time signature. The song targets Rupert Murdoch in particular and Australian media in general. On the White Fella/Black Fella Tour, Peter Garrett referred to the song as the 'Rupert Murdoch Alligator Express'. Track listing
