@tomisbetterthanu - I couldn't agree w/ you more....I just recently got my hands on their first 2 CD's and, this band is wayyyy talented.....I'm in the U.S. and, I have never heard them anywhere here in the states....I kind of accidentally found out about them while trying to find out who sang the song "Waiting" for the NZ tourist commercials, %100 New Zealand....I'm not sorry that I stumbled onto them, I can tell you that!
very nice , i didn't really try to listen this band's other songs execpt maybe .. but now i'm try to listen all songs from opshop.. nicely done guys... :D
Devi leggerla. Uno volta cominciata non torni indietro. Una bambina di 10 anni è stata rapita e ? nel 1945. Il suo corpo non fu trovato fino al 1947. Poi un ragazzo la settimana scorsa lesse questo messaggio e non copiò e passo questo messaggio. La ragazza morta è apparsa nella sua camera ossessionata da lui e lo uccise. Se non copi e passi questo in 10 video in 30 min la ragazza morta apparirà nella tua camera stanotte e ti ossessionerà e ti ucciderà.
Has Opshop hit the big-time in other countries other than NZ? Im a kiwi and im sooo proud to have these awesome people showing the rest of the world just how good we are!!! Beautiful voices and awesome songs! Now im going to look for my fave by them, Smoke and Mirrors, hope i can see it! ;)
Now I've directed almost 50 music videos many of which have had NZonAir funding and I have NEVER heard, seen or experienced any connection between political and social statements and the allocation of funding. Its all about the song. Does anyone seriously think any politician takes notice of the songs that get funding? Also I really fail to see what this song/video has to do with the discussion on politics going on, apart from the throwaway comment that started it.
seriously... wtf's up with the race cards being played? Love the band, love the music, why the stupid comments on race... 'can't we all just get along'
You have to understand the politics of the music industry in NZ; which are primarily social liberal leftwing. Musicians here often set out to prove something, rather than soley express their art.
Now this I agree with :) It's really stupid but songs that are about starving kids or about 'something' the current government has a view on, well they get funding. When they need the funding from a NZ Govt branch though (NZ On Air), you can't really expect more. But it is nice to see that nowdays it is improving (last year or 2) and the NZ music industry (DJ's, record companies, fans etc) actually get more of a say.
lots of ignorant kiwi's have problems with black people! im black, no shit.! lots of south americans are black...Most white people have to be so racist to us! I mean serious wats wrong with coloured people!
pfft Kiwi my ass... mate... get over yourself. There's a big 'tall poppy' problem when it comes to people being racist. FACT.. check the 'N' word for example... or what about the new Nike AD (people wanna be like us). Mate don't lump me in saying stuff like that because you got race problems. Check the facts... check the stats. And don't say you're kiwi when you write dumass shit like that... wanna say 'most white people'... what a load of crap. Over here you get a scholarship if your Maori.
The stupid idiots marking the comments negative about Americans need to get a life. You American people, we don't hate you and thats the truth. Stupid people or should I say arrogant kiwis from New Zealand are just marking your comments negative cause they are so small minded. I'm a New Zealander and I have to say a lot of the stuff we watch and listen to is from America or American influenced. Although us Kiwis have a great sense of identity of who we are. Take Opshop for example.
we dont hate americans, we just dont completly agree with your ideas within the war, politics and the way you react to a disasteres event, other than that we love americans, I LOVE THIS SO
Na we don't hate American's in NZ we actually quite like you. In fact we pretty much watch all your films and TV and listen to lots of your music. It's the people running the place (and trying to rule the world) that we can't get our head around.
america is creepy in some ways lol. well its not the most perfect country that youd want to live in. i myself personally loathe america but i love nz! of course ;-) proud kiwiiiii :-)
woohoo go opshop i lurrve being a kiwi 2!! the lead singer is hot lol i seen them in concert a couple weeks ago they were awesome they sound better live!
Agreed. To be honest its a bit hard to find though ... maybe the tags need to be different or it just needs to be renamed so a simple search will find it?
Favourite song by my favourite Kiwi band (^_^)v
