==Background==
Paul Kelly had formed Paul Kelly and the Coloured Girls in 1985, named from a line in Lou Reed's "Walk on the Wild Side".〔〔〔 The Coloured Girls were Michael Barclay on drums and backing vocals, Peter Bull on keyboards, Steve Connolly on lead guitar and Jon Schofield on bass guitar.〔〔 For international releases from 1987 they used the name Paul Kelly and the Messengers to avoid possible racist interpretations.〔〔 In August 1989 after two albums the group issued, ''So Much Water So Close to Home'' under the band name Paul Kelly and the Messengers in all markets.〔 The album peaked at No. 10 on the ARIA Albums Chart.〔 It was recorded in the United States with Scott Litt, best known for his work with R.E.M., co-producing with Kelly.〔 Litt had re-mixed some of Paul Kelly and the Coloured Girls' earlier tracks for their US releases as by Paul Kelly and the Messengers.〔〔 ''So Much Water So Close to Home'' was released on Mushroom/White Records in Australia and A&M Records in the US and Europe.〔 "Sweet Guy" was the first single from the album and peaked at number 53 on the ARIA singles chart.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=25 Years Ago This Week: July 30, 1989 )〕 "Careless" was the second single from the album, but failed to chart on the ARIA top 100 singles chart. It peaked at number 92, however, on the Kent Music Report chart〔
The video for "Careless" was directed by Kimble Rendall (XL Capris, Hoodoo Gurus, The Angels, Cold Chisel)〔〔〔 and features Kelly and his band performing the song around an open fire, interdispersed with film from a wedding video. In May 1992 Kelly recorded a live version for his solo concert performance at the Athenaeum Theatre for the VHS album ''Paul Kelly Live at the Athenaeum, May 1992'' (1992).〔 It was directed and produced by Mat Humphrey. A related 2× CD album ''Live, May 1992'' also included "Careless".〔 In 2004 Paul Kelly and the Boon Companions performed the track for the DVD, ''Ways & Means'', in the section subtitled ''Live in Boston''.〔〔 Kelly and his nephew Dan Kelly recorded the song as part of Kelly's A – Z Tours from 2004 to 2010, it was issued on the 8× CD album, ''The A – Z Recordings'' (2010).〔
Since its release, it has been covered by Renée Geyer on ''Difficult Woman'' (1994) – Kelly produced her album, also wrote the title song, "Sweet Guy" and "Foggy Highway".〔〔 In 2002, Angie Hart (ex-Frente!) performed it on ''Women at the Well'', a Kelly tribute album by female artists. Ozi Batla (MC for The Herd) sang both "Careless" and "Sydney From a 727" for the Kelly tribute show and related album, ''Before Too Long'' (2010).〔 The song also appeared on the soundtrack to the 1990 Australian film, ''Weekend with Kate''.
