Greg Ham, who contributed the controversial flute part, told Melbourne's The Age newspaper: "It will be the way the song is remembered, and I hate that. In over 20 years no one noticed the reference to 'Kookaburra.' Marion Sinclair never made any claim that we had appropriated any part of her song, and she was alive when 'Down Under' was a hit. Hay said after the judgment: "I'll go to my grave knowing 'Down Under' is an original piece of work. According to Colin Hay, legal fees in the case totaled about $4.5 million, as he fought it aggressively. The lawsuit asked for 60 percent of the publishing rights the judgment was for 5 percent, retroactive to 2002, netting Larrikin about $100,000. In his judgment, he said that Men At Work had infringed Larrikin's copyright because "Down Under" reproduced "a substantial part of Kookaburra."

Head full of Zombie - Zombie was a particularly strong batch of marijuana that was floating around Australia for a long time.
