Crowded House on Much Music Nails in My Feet (12/13)

Unbelievable. Even when Neil comes out and says it has nothing to do with religion, the religious refuse to believe it.

I have to agree with Leanda - how could this great song NOT be Christian symbolism? Maybe he was fending off that annoying girl - I can see Leanda's other point about defense of sales but the Finn brothers needn't worry that they will be taken anything but the great artists they are. Thanks for posting this!

@peterswise1 So Neil's lying? :-)

[peterswise1]

Nah, I just think given the whole body of his work and our cultural inheritance, it's a convergence. Both explanations are true. He just explained the obvious one to him ... and the easiest one. Trying to explain Christian metaphor to that chick would be a real task, no?! In any event, great art is never fully explicable and as Picasso said "art is a lie leading to the truth" anyway. :) Or something like that.

Well said Peter. It's hard to disagree with that. Cheers.

I hope this chick is unemployed right now. She's the annoying chick everyone knew in high school. I wish they would do a closeup on her so I could look for a labotomy scar

it is a christian reference and him being cathlolic - i dont know why he says its not . most of his songs have subtle religion in them. why do i play these over over . not to find a msg in any of them but i know how the FB songs were influenced by their upbringing..any denial is said in defence for sales of course. no not really they write songs for pleasure not money.u have done a justice to CH fans with yr vids .they are all very good. best trade and score u ever got.
