"Blow Up the Pokies" is the second single by The Whitlams from their album, ''Love This City''. It was released in 2000 and peaked at #21 on the ARIA Singles Chart. ==Song Meaning== The lyrics written by lead singer Tim Freedman were a statement on the destruction he saw in original Whitlams bassist Andy Lewis's life due to his gambling. The original music and some lyrics were written by Greta Gertler. The song was originally called 'Dwell', before being later adapted by Freedman. During the band's Canadian tour in April 2000 supporting Blue Rodeo, the band received word Lewis had committed suicide back in Australia. Tim soon after wrote "The Curse Stops Here", a heart-rending piece describing being the 'last one' from the original line-up of the band, and voicing his determination to survive. "The Curse Stops Here" was included as a B-side track on the "Blow Up the Pokies" single and also appeared on the album ''Little Cloud''. The song was re-recorded for its single release, with new vocals and different instrumentation. This version appeared on their best-of compilation in 2008.
