This is a romping good song & video from a marvelously talented album by the bros. from Te Awamutu, NZ. I would bet that was them in the old footage. It'd be nice to know for sure.

Yeah there's a documentary on Neil Finn on youtube somewhere and it confirms that these pictures are The Finns when they were kids! :-)

[LeanneBrandi]

this song is true classic :)

This is a brilliantly crafted song. Every detail. When they take it up a key at the end, it knocks my socks off. It doesn't get much better than this.

[NIGHTFRIGHT2011]

I cannot praise this song and the album everyone is here highly enough.Every track is a masterclass in the art of combining glorious melodies with heartfelt lyrics, all delivered with uncanny harmonic brilliance by Neil and Tim.

I honestly believe that this album is up there with the best work of Crowded House,Split Enz and the various solo albums released by the brothers. Please,please buy it.

guess i have to comment one more time... i'm crying tonight at this song. so many things lost, so many things gained where family is concerened. this is such a beautiful song

[ramadarose41]

i know, i've already commented a few times, but i gotta say that this is one of the best songs to come from the Finn Brothers. not just the video, which speaks volumes, but the song itself which speaks to me even more. a HUGE WOW! i'm so impressed and totally blown away by this one. Neil, Tim... if you're reading... you guys are the bomb, you are my raison d'etre! <3 <3

quick question... are all the kids in the video (chasing bubbles, throwing leaves outta the basket, hoola-hooping, spraying champagne from a bottle, etc.) from old Finn family videos that have been spliced into this one? some of the old shots are obviously old family videos (Neil and Tim in the little car, Neil (i think) being picked up by his dad, Tim (obviously) introducing his little brother to perform in front of other kids). but i cannot tell about the other shots. educate me, please?;-)

god i love this song, and i've just heard it! LOVE Neil's hat trick too. i have to wonder, is that him at the end as a child doing the same trick?? that black hat looks so sexy on him! :-)

a FB friend sent me this link after i made a comment about how much the brothers Finn resemble each other as they've gotten older, and i just have to say... WOW!! i had to pause it when they blended Neil's and Tim's faces together just when their mouths met, and it was amazing how much they look alike. i've never seen pictures of their parents before, but it is incredible how much Neil looked like his father at that point in the video. this is a great video and song, thanks for sharing it!

@Patsyorange Sorry, I just cannot agree. I got you is a good song. Best song Split Enz ever had IMO. But Crowded House and The Finn Brothers have some absolutely brilliant songs, including this. I don't think Paul McCartney would lie!

[Patsyorange]

You're right - I am right. These guys haven't written a decent song since 'I Got You'.

[bleedinusernames]

@Patsyorange You must be right and everybody else must be wrong! Poor comment. Great song. Great writers, singers, performers. :-)

These Finn fuckers never give up...this song is a relentless headache spawning mess.
