is she trying to be dave dobbyn these days - making self-consciously classic 'kiwi' hits complete with 'classic' kiwi back-drops? Dislike - intensely...
@pnnorton Sure the US can pump out hits but when it comes to quality music like this they're all autotuned to hell crappy pop artists that are backed by the massive marketing power of their record companies
@MynameisChops But it is the best objective indicator and given the gap between US and everywhere else, even in non-US markets, it is hard to refute that the US have been winning.
@pnnorton uh I'm sorry but no thats wrong, sales is a culmination of many factors, public exposure, advertising, friends sharing, quality is only one of those factors. Rebecca black sold millions of copies of her song friday, is it an amazing song by a talented artist? not on my watch. This is infinitely better than Rebecca Black but will only recieve a margin of the sales her piece of trite sold. Sales does not indicate quality.
@MinkBomb If your really proud of being NZ that's fine... but putting all these comments of NZ vs. Aus shit hurts any case for superiority simply because looking at any of the Aus bands/artists you'll be hard pressed to find a mention of NZ.
@sunriseRISE You were insecure enough to rise to the bait ;^p nerp.
I'm sure iceburglolliepop was talking statisically based on population rather than real numbers anyway, even the small amount of talent of each individual adds up to a lot when you consider the total population of Australia. (I kid ;^) )
Go Aussie!

@howie2078 is Dave Dobbyn the only Kiwi allowed to have Kiwi music and use New Zealand as a backdrop for his music? Sod off back to Aussie, mate.

You can tell this was filmed in NZ, the beach at the start, the forest at the first chorus, this shows the best of NZ and Bic Runga's talents.

The first line of singing, especially "i'm coming down the wire" sounds like an american indie song... I wish i could remember it.
