  • Neil is definitely one of my favourites. He knows how to combine lyrics and music. Anytime puts thinsg in perspective and shows me how vulnerable life is havind two young kids. Paul

  • Neil Finn is one of my favorites and I didn't even know it - I love Crowded House and can't get enough. 

  • I love Neil Finn...nuff said.

  • excellent j'adore

    

  • If that 'aint a dream line up,I don't know what is !

    Just sublime.....what a song !

  • i think he is the best singer songwriter on the planet...end of!!

  • I feel like I'm in love

    With a stranger I'll never know

    Although you're still a mystery

    I'm so glad I'm not alone

  • i could die at any time. i know that. so i'm going to enjoy my life. every moment of it

  • This song always takes me to a good place. It's hard to describe. But whenever I hear it, I just feel calm I guess.

  • I once had the most ethereal feeling riding the bus listening to this and the fog broke thru the clouds, the air began to warm just as the bus crested the hill i could see the ocean.

  • This was the song that comforted me in the wake of 9/11. I really can't say much more than that, because words fail me.

  • i like that

  • The more you play this song the better it gets to ones ear.

  • Yeah I met Neil when he was in DC with CH and he was just a regular guy. He even took some CDs of a great local group Starbelly who is very CH influenced.

  • This is one of the finest songs Neil has ever crafted. It meant a lot to me when I heard it initially whilst living in London. I had the pleasure of seeing Neil many times tho never with CH. I've been around music and the industry and met some great people but I'd have to say that meeting Neil was an honor. Brilliant.  Thank you for sharing it with us roadofrarotonga.

  • I hear this song at least once a week since past year, melody seems to transport me out of the earth. amazing!!!

  • I can't get enough of this song, one of the finest Neil has ever written.

  • my entire household love this song. neil touches all the generations... a feat not done by the many

  • Neil Finn, a musician who's most definitely paid his dues.

  • Great song, great artist; this is a great live album Mr. Neil Finn!!!

  • omg the radiohead boys as well!!!!

  • I seem to recall Neil wrote this after seeing his dog nearly get hit in the road...anyway, it's another one of his many beautiful songs.

  • This song is from his last solo album "One Nil" (europe) and "One All" (US)... the song you're thinking of is "Lester", also available as a vid clip here, and available on CD on the Crowded House album, "Afterglow", which is a compilation of songs that didn't make the cut for one reason or another on their other albums. I love that you can tell which songs were recorded for the diff albums by the sound and the feel.

  • Neil finn = One of the most talented, brilliant, gorgeous, etc. of all time...period....

  • I just love this song, but there used to be another performance of it, it was a girl from the audience that came up on stage to play the three notes on the piano, I think that version was great too. Anyone knows where to find it now?

  • The voice at 2.48 .... pure feeling, lovely girl on piano ;o)

  • It's Lisa Germano, she worked on the album with him, toured with him for his last solo album. She's better known as the Lisa part of Wendy & Lisa, used to play keyboard for Prince, back when Wendy was his guitarist. One of the two of them had a brother that played keyboard for Smashing Pumpkins before he died.

  • Actually that is not so. It is Lisa Coleman who was in Wendy & Lisa.

  • amazing track one of my fav tunes of neil's. love the man haha

  • Totally agree, a phenomenal track. Mesmerising.
