The title track was written by James Reyne. It contains the invented word "dorseted": "People aren't used to hearing 'dorseted', and it's not actually a word - it's from the Dorset Gardens - I'm trying to be as suburban as possible, and it rhymed with 'corseted'." - James Reyne, 2003 Various band members were involved in songwriting, often with relatives or former bandmates. Rhythm guitarist Brad Robinson's father James Robinson was a Federal Arbitration Court Justice and co-wrote two songs for this album.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Memorable TV Oz Rock: Australian Crawl entry )〕 Reyne's bandmate from Spiff Rouch, Mark Hudson co-wrote their first single, "Beautiful People" (1979).〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=APRA ) 〕 "Downhearted" was written by Bill McDonough and his bandmates from The Flatheads, Guy McDonough (his brother, who later joined the Crawl) and Sean Higgins.〔 Producer, David Briggs (Little River Band guitarist), co-wrote "Hoochie Gucci Fiorucci Mama" with Reyne.〔 The album was re-released in 1992 in CD format (see cover right below), and as a 2-CD set with follow-up album ''Sirocco'' in 1996.〔 In October 2010, ''Boys Light Up'' was listed in the top 50 in the book, ''100 Best Australian Albums''. == Track listing == # "My Coffee's Gone Cold" (Simon Binks) - 3:29 # "Man Crazy" (James Reyne) - 3:39 # "Way I've Been" (Brad Robinson, James Robinson) - 2:17 # "Chinese Eyes" (James Reyne, Simon Binks) - 3:01 # "Downhearted" (Sean Higgins, Guy McDonough, William 'Bill' McDonough) - 3:09 # "Beautiful People" (James Reyne, Mark Hudson) - 2:56 # "Indisposed" (Brad Robinson, James Robinson, James Reyne, William 'Bill' McDonough) - 4:04 # "Walk My Way" (James Reyne, Brad Robinson)- 2:44 # "The Boys Light Up" (James Reyne) - 4:41 # "Boot Hill" (James Reyne, Simon Binks) - 2:36 # "Red Guitar" (Simon Binks) - 3:19 # "Hoochie Gucci Fiorucci Mama" (James Reyne, David Briggs) - 2:30 Songwriting credits from Australasian Performing Right Association (APRA).〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Boys Light Up」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
