An ad for Target Australia. It looks like stop motion (although maybe it's done with special effects.)

I know a lot of people have been looking for this song. As I work for Target Australia, I was able to get hold of a full version of the song. Just for legal reasons, I have to say that I do not claim ownership of this song nor am I affiliated with the band in anyway. Now that that's taken care of, let's enjoy the music! (video created in Apple iMovie). ALSO: I've noticed people have been asking if there is a URL to download this song. Your in for luck as I have just uploaded my original MP3 version of the song onto 2Shared. Here's the URL: www.2shared.com

Filmed at the Little River rifle range facing the You Yangs, an SSAA branch. We were firing at paper targets on metal frames 100 metres (110 yards) from the shooting position. This is the first loading problem we had with the SMLE that day, and we knew exactly where we went wrong. It was far easier to take out the magazine and load in this instance...however much slower than the charger clips. Gun: 1943 Lithgow (NSW) SMLE, .303 British.

This is the race that cemented Takeover Target as one of the best sprinters to come out of Australia. His win here in the 2006 Kings Stand Stakes at Royal Ascot is simply brilliant!

My first time firing a Lee Enfield. I was in awe of the gun, one can tell from the stupid grin on my face and the silly laugh at the end. But hell, I was having fun! Decide to stop aiming for the last few rounds and just open up, realising that the SMLE and its spectacularly engineered bolt was designed to fire and cycle without any difficulty while remaining on your shoulder - the advantage of which was accuracy and the famous speed in which servicemen were trainined to fire the rifle at. What I found even better was this is an Australian made rifle, made in the Lithgow Small Arms Factory, New South Wales. It was everything you'd expect from Australian workmanship - beautifully crafted stock, and smoothly tooled reciever. The rifle was in near-origional condition. I was shooting at targets 100 metres (110 yards, 330 feet) away.

This track soundtracks the Target Australia Effortless Denim campaign. Lyrics: You're shaping into something beautiful Got your heart in my hands Shaping into something wonderful Got your head in my hands CHORUS It's pretty warm inside You'll feel it from the outside first Baking like an apple pie You'll feel it from the outside first Kissed by everyone at school Got your heart in their hands Tucked into pockets you're against the rules Got your head in their hands CHORUS Swapped for a dolly at some BBQ Got your head in their hands Kids can be fickle even with you. Got your heart in their hands CHORUS
