Heard this song a long time ago but didn't know it was by Neil Finn. The man is genius of a singer-songwriter. Love that haircut and those eyebrows!!! Frightening!
Lived and worked in oz for a while and me and the boys would all sing this out loud and the cars " just what i needed".....happy days,now stuck in rainy shit hole england.....DOH
Listen for great music like this on a new radio station called "OffTheCharts" - featuring 70's (and some 80's) lost hits and chart wonders!

This song will be fearured on our first show beginning November 8.
classic song man! this video, everything from the simplicity to the suits, defines early 80s...the hook of this song is soo hard to resist; I remember hearing it on the radio as a kid, it never left me, lol
great band, can anyone upload the track "without a doubt" from the album dizrythmia please, i used to have the album and remember it was a great track!
@WillyReed19 agreed...most of Split Enz stuff was ahead of it's time. Go back and listen to their stuff from the 70's, they were doing punk and ska before anyone had heard of it....geniuses.
Great song but what is that talentless bell-end stood next to the drummer doing? did they just pick him up off the street and offer him a part in th vid
thank you, jack FM!

Is he wearing lipstick???
MrMatthewUnger 10 months ago
@MrMatthewUnger - yes - he's whearing lipstick. They did that in 80s. Spit Enz used to wear the full white face paint in the early days

What's the dude's job that's standing in the middle behind the drummer? Finger snapper-er?

What a cracking sound from the past...isn't Youtube just great for reliving your youth at the touch of a keyboard, pure melancholic nostagia?

To find this song, I had to hum it to my friend. He remembered some of the other lyrics that I couldn't hear, then I found it on youtube from that.
