i was their the night this was recorded the guy is a god among songwriters and performers. And, is modest a rare quality today. This song is spine tingiling, still a year it can't get out of my head!
Do yourself a favour see this man live before u leave this mortal coil..
I've seen him here in Vancouver solo and with Crowded House, but I didn't really spend any time looking for a Neil-loving soulmate. LOL. Who knows when he'll be here again. I may be going to New Zealand in October 2011, so I'll keep up to date on his schedule. Maybe she's there.
Why couldn't any of my ex-girlfriends appreciate Neil the way I appreciate Neil? The only one who ever really knew how good Neil is had a father who wrote and played music. Her father thought Neil was pretty much without equal when it came to creating music.
Come to an intimate venue where Neil plays solo and get yourself into the first 3 rows. You'll be surrounded by us adoring fans floating on air in his presence :)
Neil Finn is one of the greatest song writers ever. Period. From amazing lyrics to beautiful arrangements. IM just thankful for all of his music. But I want more. :-)
@DeeCeeCT . I couldn't agree more. Sometimes, I think how great it would be live in different times in History but theres no doubt that one of the main advantages to have lived in this time is having been priveliged to experience the music of Neill Finn.
I just listened to that Coldplay song that someone below claimed was "the same tune", and it's not even close. The chords, the melody, and the lyrical rhythm are all totally different. The ONLY similarity is that it's also a piano-and-voice performance.
Now, if you want to compare the intro to this song to the intro to "High School Confidential" by Rough Trade, well... ;)
What an absolutely brilliant evening. This song is a stunner too. Go Neil! Still writing great songs. Thanks for the video upload, I was too awestruck to record a thing!

As good as it gets. There isn't a better song about family. And that includes Sister Sledge
