davidbolan:
You can barely see them... was this supposed to be 'demented' or something?

TotalTwister:
This is actually a clearer copy of the ones I've previously seen. Not a very good clip, but appreciated nonetheless.

Greatfox200:
I see red :P

langkawi13:
I really like this song actually, first time I've seen the video clip though. Even though its not very good I still like it

armorica9:
cool, funky song - I grew up loving Split Enz in the 80s.. it's fun to see earlier stuff here on youtube that MTV never showed

Nothing like Tim's dance moves! That "knocking Knee" move had me rolling on the floor

[icanwaitanotherday]

Another gem from the past!

[TroyTheEditor]

This is the Luton version which has better vocals, but the way the remastered version is mixed is much better.
