  • Great song. I only recently rediscovered it, and had always assumed it was either American or British. Real Kiwi talent.

  • @fushnchips1 the song was this is a cover of spinning

  • One of the best records of all time. Even better than the version by the Ballroom. And that's saying a lot.

  • Hi Tasman38... Thanks for the post., my dad loved this song, he gone now, passed away 6 months ago, thanks for the wonderful memories

  • Wow , another under-rated NZ band.

  • What a great memory this song brings back. Was the best time for kiwi songs-never have them like this these days- pity
