Bernard Fanning is no stranger to the limelight. With Powderfinger he sold millions of albums and rocked out to stadiums of adoring fans.

Then he stripped it back as a solo artist and went Number 1 again. Bernard holds the record for the most amount of Hottest 100 number 1’s, he is adored by generations of Australians, and is one of the most enjoyable people to chat music with.

Bernard’s new project with Paul Dempsey proves he’s still compelled to create music, and with all of this history, we sat down in Melbourne’s legendary Bakehouse Studios to Take 5.

Interestingly, Bernard came up with his own theme for this one; he was super keen to explore the world’s of vulnerability and bravado. And from Bowie to Nina Simone, AC/DC to Bob Dylan, we unpacked a whole lot more. Settle in for this special extended cut of Bernard Fanning's Take 5.

  • AC/DC – ‘Jailbreak’
  • David Bowie – ‘Sound And Vision’
  • Nina Simone – 'I Wish I Knew How It Would Feel To Be Free’
  • Prince – ‘1999’
  • Bob Dylan – ‘Most Of The Time’
