@ThisIsHowIDissapear From my position on the globe, New Zealand is down under...but of course I know Crowded House are from New Zealand and not the bigger island :)
If you’re beginning to notice your senses slowly becoming inundated with the effects of the modern world such as our oceans being polluted with oil and radioactive iodine, cheap plastic consumer techno trash and our one dimensional corrupt government, do yourself a favor, go to Netflix and get this DVD. It won’t change the world but it will make you forget about it for at least two hours. It contains 100% pure joy.
Great tune. Am I not wrong in thinking that on the record of this, Neil sings his own harmonies? I think the harmonies are a little shaky here. Still great.
What this song reminds me of is the last gasp of western culture and freedom before the islamic invasion finally stops all creativity and music and art and writing.....it is a matter of mathematics and demographics. Just learn to count and you will see that you are being outbred by the fascistic wogs who your governments brought to your country without asking you if you minded. We are being fucked over by our so called 'leaders' for the price of cheap labour.
Put your guns and your beef jerky away and walk out into America where Americans rule. No one is going to take anything from us because we do not restrict rights.
On the cheap labor, we do have to get the rest of the world on a level playing field. No other country can compete with say China at 50 cents an hour, no OSHA, no insurance, no workers comp...no problem.
Ah yes! My partner and I were there that night in 1997 (?) Just us two and a quarter of a million others. I was just amazed at the international audience there. Everywhere you turned you'd hear French, German, Polish and many other languages just as much as English. A wonderful group and great song writers, musicians and lovely as people too.
This song and "fall at your feet" ---which I love, I'm newly addicted to it, not being familiar with 80's music esp. from New Zealand and Australia.. (nope, not real young, was just stoned.) but I just wanted to say the two songs are kinda Beatles-esque if you get me.
Yeah I hear a lot of Beatles influence in Crowded House..which is a great thing imo! Fall At Your Feet is one of my favourite songs ever. I have a version of it here, check it out!
i was at this concert. hired a car and drove down from Brisbane. It got postponed due to rain on the saturday night,so i had to miss work to see it. Unbelieveable atmosphere.
This song reminds me of hanging out with an old girl friend in Lajolla, Ca eating mexican food and throwing back shots. Man what a killer time ! thanks for the post
It is truly great to have this Crowded House performance of one of its best songs with both Finn brothers and Paul Hester. This is a treasure. Thanks so much.
great song and the us is full of good people im from canada and get to engage with lots of good americans. they saved europe from themselves along with the british in the second world war. us colonials in australia and canada should give our grandparents some respect by acknoledging that. the english speaking peoples should show some balls. peace.
whats everyone kicking off for? chill out a bit and enjoy the track. course they a great band i'm from england and i like these as much as the next guy. whats all this about bashin yanks?
Really? How so? I wouldn't think so. They seem pretty close after the finn brothers albums. "Everyone Is Here" is pretty much about them and their family and how close they are. I thought so, anyway.
First, mate, THIS IS ONE OF THE GREATEST BANDS IN THE WORLD! Second, anything I say is as important as anything you or anyone else says because that is THE AMERICAN WAY that all our allies adopted. It is sad that so many people the USA saved from utter destruction by fascists now find it FASHIONABLE to bash us.
Oh all you lucky people who get to live in Oz & have had all the opportunities to see live these immensely talented boys! We U.S.ers never have given them the attention they deserve.
i was brought up with there music when i was young and i remeber my brother and i hating it and now as im young and iv moved over to nz i listen to the music as much as i can!!! love them
Just to clear things up - Neil and Tim are definitely Kiwis. For the ignorant person who just thinks OZ and NZ are just full of Maori's and Aborigines - didn't you go to school!!! Neil went to school with a mate of mine. The boy's talents as a songwriter are unsurpassed! Crowded House play in Edmonton September 8 promoting Time On Earth. Rock On!!! Crowded House.
i agree with you robinnikkie. i have always thought crowded house sounded as good as any of the great sixties groups, the greatest, of course, being the beatles.
They can't be Kiwis or Assies....the former are Maori and the latter Aboriginals....these guys look like Scots or Irish to me ....and with a name like Finn, what more do I need to add? Yerall crimbo's anyways....hahahaha
What?! Australians and New Zealanders who are descended from European (or any other continent for that matter) migrants are still called Australians and New Zealanders. You're talking about indigenous Australians and New Zealanders. The Finn brothers are New Zealanders, although probably of Irish descent.
They just played 4 songs on sunrise, a morning show in Aus. There back together!!! You can check the vid of there songs by searching yahoo and sunrise on google, there in the "stars" section.
but if it wasn't for australia they would never have made it, typical kiwi, boo hoo. we steal everything from you anyways, you'd think you'd be used to it, pansies
I love Crowded House, and this song... but does no one else think that the singing is really out of tune? Especially in the first verse, I think it's Tim. Achwell. They're still ace :)
hello,does anyone know the name of the program on tv with neil finn,roddy frame and the bloke from 10cc?.it was a live set in the u.k in about 1999.thanks
this is a very late reply to 2000awd, the programme was songwriter's circle, it was aired on bbc2, ive failed to find footage again, but it was a great show!
