this song could be a Christmas song, it could be a summer song, it could be a love song, an energy song, everything! I use to listen to it whenever I'm out running, when I get tired, I just start to jump it's crazy!
I remember coming home from a party and watching this in the little caravan we were staying at! I loved this concert - I use to watch it over and over!! Love this song - loved their brief Mullanes period and I often wonder what they would have sounded like if Craig Hooper had stayed on!!!
Did you notice Eddie Rayner on the keyboards jump when that boom went off in the beginning of this video? No one else seemed bothered by it. I just noticed this.
This song was not only on the Afterglow album. Recurring Dream first appeared on the soundtrack to a movie, Ricky and Pete. It also appeared as a live version on the bonus CD that came with Recurring Dream: The Very Best of Crowded House (before the CD was re-released with a bonus DVD).
from wikipedia:
Crowded House provided one song ("Recurring Dream") for the soundtrack of the film Rikky and Pete, other tracks for which were provided by various combinations of Split Enz alumni.
thanks for putting this up. they missed out a verse tho! its my favourite song of all time! such a shame they arent around anymore. this song is their best and most underrated. cant beleive it was only released on the afterglow album
Neil's so gorgeous in this one, especially at 1:15. That smile!
This song is always best heard live. The studio recording doesn't do it justice.

Me to, Hooper actually contributed to the songwriting of reccuring dream. They had an awesome sound at this consert.

Is there a 'NOT LIVE' video of Recurring Dream? I couldnt find it on youtube...!!?
inthemerde 3 years ago
Do you mean a single release + music video?...
I'm an avid Crowdies supporter, and I've never come across one... (unfortunately)
strange that it was never released as a single though...

yes that was what I meant, a music video...its a shame.

This is probably the best live rendition of this song I've ever heard on youtube
(I haven't been lucky enough to hear it live myself!)

I have a feeling it might have been an over dramatized jump?
and did Neil trigger the boom?
looks like he hits something with his foot just as it goes off....
