}}"1000 Miles Away" is a single by [1] Australian rock group Hoodoo Gurus that was written by Dave Faulkner.[2] It was released by RCA Records in June, 1991 and reached #33 on the Australian singles chart;[3]{{quote|"Many people have told me "1000 Miles Away" is their favourite Gurus song and it's also among my top ten. There are references to airports and flying but I was writing about emotional distance rather than physical travel. "I Think You Know" was another Punishment Song. We liked to keep bashing out the last two chords for a couple of minutes, Buzzcocks-style, a bit like a punk mantra. Punishment never felt so good."|Dave Faulkner|[4]}}

The crew of Royal Australian Navy frigate HMAS Canberra had an association with the song after they adopted it as their 'anthem'. Hoodoo Gurus played a concert including the Replenishment At Sea song "1000 Miles Away" on-board during their last voyage out of Fremantle to Fleet Base West, prior to its decommissioning in 2005.[5]

The single was also released as a limited edition picture disc,[6] on which the B-side is not listed but titled as 4 symbolic drawings: an eye, a light bulb, a horseshoe, and a circle with a line through it (for back cover see below right, when read using the Rebus Principle this becomes "I Think You Know"). It was also released as a cassette single with free 'Kinky' Hoodoo Gurus magazine.

The B side "I Think You Know" was also written by Faulkner.[2] The second B-side on the CD Maxi-single, "Stomp the Tumbarumba", was originally recorded by New Zealand musician, Johnny Devlin, in 1963. It featured an uncredited appearance by the Gibb brothers (Bee Gees) as backup singers[7] and reached #5 on the Sydney singles charts and #5 on the Brisbane charts the year of its release.
